I pulled out a stamp set from Gina K Designs called, Just a Note, designed by Rupa Shevde. It has never been used before and has musical notes and instruments on it. I used Distressed inks in two pinks and two greens, and masked off my areas. Then stamped with the musical instruments, in Momemto Rich Cocoa. Stamping off once . Just added the ribbon and the flowers that I had made a few days ago with Heartfelt Creations stamp and dies called Sun Kissed Fleur.
Here is the card. The Retiform technique is the background for this card.
Enjoy and as always, thanks for your comments.
OH that came out beautifully! 2 of my most favorite colors used together, there is just something about pink and green...fabulous! I have that set too, glad you finally got it inky! Great choice! And man, that flower...EGADS...it is one gorgeous bloom! (or rather 2 in this case!) lol I do love the HF flowers....maybe I should just go visit that site! Thanks so much for playing along with us at The Mod Squad Challenge Donna, Challenge Host.

Wow! This is beautiful! I love those colors and images and how you used your design as a backdrop for those gorgeous flowers.
ReplyDeleteOh, Barb, I'm with Donna about loving pink and green together! And what a fabulous job on the retiform technique! I've never tried it myself, but I love how you've used a musical theme and stamped notes and instruments around. And I absolutely love your flower! It's a gorgeous finishing touch! Beautifully done, sweet friend, and I'd say you had fun with this card! Hugs!
