Thank You by Jenny Alia

Hello, it's JENNY here hosting the blog today. I'm sharing a card I made using flowers I saved to use in a name frame. My new niece is only a week old, so I figure I still have time to make more flowers for her project. Instead with patterned paper from Martha Stewart and the Quadrafoil Doily and Tag dies, I created a thank you card.

I colored the Chrysanthemum and Small and Large Gardenias with distress ink and spray mists. The gardenias both have a nice shimmer. The flowers were shaped using a molding mat and stylus tools.

I cut leaves from the Build a Flower #2 die and tucked them underneath the flowers. The Quadrafoil Tag was popped up higher using foam tape for added dimension. I also glued flat-backed creme pearls to the corners of the Quadrafoil Square Doily. The Thank You die was also colored with a little distress ink so it would stand out more against the Tag.
