Mornin', y'all! You ready for a sweet little card today?
I bought the Sweet as a Peach bundle and I DON'T EVEN LIKE PEACHES, it was the DSP that sold me on this suite. And now it's on the retiring list and I feel like I should have used it more. Oh, I put Pale Papaya rhinestones in the centers of the stamped flowers and they did not photograph well, I promise they look better in person. For the peach, I inked it up with Pale Papaya ink and then used a sponge dauber to add a bit of Calypso Coral, which gave me some nice color depth on the peach. When I stamped the flowers, I inked them up with Calypso Coral and used that same sponge dauber to take off a bit of the ink so the images would stamp a little bit softer.
I thought that peach and the coordinating papers would be great for the Hand Stamped Sentiments sketch:
I even found a die with the same shape for the sentiment part :) The Tasteful Labels dies are also on the retiring list, I don't even know if they're still available or if they're sold out. I'm glad I've had them for a while.
And another plug for the SUO Challenges theme to use a favorite bundle:
Cheers, y'all!
