Very Versailles - easy to miss but never forgotten once seen


My card club ladies loved this card and the one we made this week.  They all admitted they hadn't spotted the Very Versailles set in the Stampin' Up! catalogue (page 113 if you've missed it too!).  However once they got to play with it they absolutely loved it and many have made the decision not to miss it again by popping it on their wishlist or in their shopping bag.  


I used a very vanilla notelet to collage stamp on with Blackberry Bliss, Mossy Meadow and Crumb Cake.  Layered over the top of my stamping I added a small piece of the leaf design paper from the Pressed Petals Specialty Paper with lace trim adhered to the reverse side and peeking out.  Before adding this I stamped 3rd generation script onto the paper and added some sponged Blackberry Bliss to the edges to make the dsp pop from the vanilla back ground.   I also added a sentiment using half the Timeless Label punch. 


On top of the patterned paper (DSP) I added a flower using 5 petals from the roll of Pressed Petals washi tape which i stuck to a punched circle and also added a recoloured Bumble Bee bottom aka Perennial Essence Floral centres.  I used an alcohol marker, Stampin' Blend, in Cajun Craze to recolour it.  

It is when all said and done a #simplestamping card with a couple of embellishment additions, but no huge skill is involved to create a pretty vintage card with a natural theme.
