Petal Palette Cards

A quick post to show you some cards I made using the new Petal Pallette Clear Mount Bundle from the Stampin' Up! 2018 Occasions catalog.  

I really love this bundle, one of my favorites from Stampin' Up! this year.  I made two different cards, similar layout using different techniques.

For the first card I stamped the images using Memento and colored in the flowers and leaves using the Stampin' Up! Blendabilities.  I love the effect and that there are no lines when you color.  
I stamped the bird with Fresh Fig ink onto Sweet Sugarplum cardstock and then diecut it using the matching thinlits.  I added some Wink of Stella sparkle to the to give it a little flare.  

For the second card, I diecut the leave image into cardstock and used it as a template for adding the Shimmery White embossing paste to create a sparkly background.  Then I stamped the flowers and leaves and bird using Memento ink and colored the leaves and flowers with the Blendabilities.  I added the Wink of Stella to the bird and decided to keep it monochromatic to let the flowers stand out.  The greeting is my favorite part!  It comes from the Happiest of Days stamp set from the 2017-2018 Annual Catalog.  I love the mix of fonts in this greeting.  I added a little Silver Baker's Twine behind the flowers and adhered to the card base with dimensionals.

Hope you enjoyed the cards and got a little inspiration from them.  

All the best to you!
