Good morning! I've got a pair of elegant cards to share today, using some supplies from Simon Says Stamp. I absolutely adore plaid, and gold, and simple floral silhouettes...not to mention layered cards!
For these cards, I started off with some Memory Box 6x6 Nutmeg pattern papers that had some gold foiling on them. I then cut a layer of white cardstock using Chunky A2 Scalloped Rectangles dies, then trimmed some Cream cardstock to fit inside the scallops and leave a nice border around. On that panel, I stamped some intricate florals from Vintage Garden stamp set using Nocturne black ink, which is amazing for a nice, crisp, detailed image like this! I added dainty sentiments from Sketched Flowers stamp set, and used my Tim Holtz distresser tool to add a bit of texture around those pieces. Then I layered them on the white scallop pieces with Big Momma foam tape roll - I love that it is thinner, so I could use it on two layers, and not end up with an overly thick card. I wrapped some May Arts Gold Metallic string around those panels and tied in a bow, then mounted those panels on my plaid bases. Finished off with a few Dazzling Gems in gold on the flower centers for a touch of extra sparkle! Here are more photos of these cards:
