More Watercolor Blooms
I had so much fun with my last one sheet wonder using double-sided paper that I just had to do another one. Some people are addicted to food and such...I'm apparently addicted to paper crafting! 😂
I started with Pink Blossoms, a double-sided paper from Recollections. I decided that I would 'wing it' instead of mapping out how I was using the paper. I only cringed a little when I made the first cut. 😄
I started with an idea that I found on Pinterest, where someone had taken a double-sided design paper and folded it back to show the other side. I decided not to fold mine and sort of rolled it over instead so it had some height to it. I love some dimension on cards. Next I took some fabric and paper flowers and used it as a soft of tack at the corner of the paper. I love these small paper flowers in the shape of roses. I think the multi-shade fabric flower matches the fade of the watercolor look nicely and as you know, I love my bling so a beaded center is always awesome. I used a sentiment from Well Said and added some gems on the flowers and to draw attention to the sentiment.

For Card #2 I started with a shimmer cardstock, Pink Taffeta, and cut out the front and back panel. I used the back side of Pink Blossoms for the watercolor background and the floral for the front panel. I once again used my new Stampin' Up set Well Said and stamped the sentiment in Memento Tuxedo Black on the pink shimmer and added a second tag in the lavender. I finished off with a piece of Rich Razzleberry velvet ribbon and complimented the design with the same pack of paper and fabric flowers that I used for card #1.

Card #3 starts with a lavender card base from Recollections and matted pieces of both the front blossoms and the back watercolor as a background. A piece of the shimmer pink has been cut into a tag and topped with a sweet "Thank You" foil sticker sentiment from Recollections and the Rich Razzleberry ribbon again. Flowers and gems finish the card.

Card #4 shakes up my color scheme a little. I started with a card base and covered most of the front with the watercolor side of the design paper. I cut one of the remaining pieces into strips and separated the strips with Crushed Curry ribbon. I used my Crushed Curry ink pad to cover a piece of white cardstock punched into a 2" circle to make the background for the "Thank You" sentiment. Rose paper flowers finish the card.

The final card, card #5 puts to use the last few pieces of paper. Strips of the design paper and cardstock make a staggered design leading to another thank you sentiment and rose paper flowers. |

That finishes off another one sheet wonder! I've got so many cards I want to make next, it's hard to decided what to do first!
