Magical Meadow Thank You for the International Highlights Winner's Hop

Hello and welcome to my blog. Earlier in the month, I participated in Kylie Bertucci's International Blog Highlights and after the voting had closed I was delighted to find myself in the Top Ten!

Thank you so much to everyone who visited the gallery and voted for my card. If you missed it, you can read all about it here. I am absolutely thrilled to be eligible to take part in this winner's hop.

For my card for today I have chosen to use some of the same products, but this time I've only used stamps...no die cuts! I've used similar colours and built in texture by overlapping the stamped images and embossing one of the layers.

This is how I made it! Starting with a small rectangle of Basic White card I stamped various sprigs of foliage. I used Lost Lagoon and Pretty Peacock ink pads for the two leafy sprays. The spray with the foliage and the berries/flowers was inked using the brush tip of my Stampin' Write Markers - I chose Blueberry Bushel and Garden Green.

To emphasise the Blueberry Bushel I added a slim layer of that coloured card behind the stamping - doesn't it make it pop? Next, I stamped the thanks from the Biggest Wish set again using Blueberry Bushel and then fussy cut it. I'm not the greatest at fussy cutting, but I took my time and I think it worked out ok.

Before I finished layering up the card I added some splatters of sparkle from a Wink of Stella Glitter Brush. When the splatters catch the light they are so pretty. I wrapped a length of Silver Trim around the stamped and textured layers before adding the thanks and a Silver Trim bow. A few Adhesive Backed Glitter Sequins add another dash of sparkle!
