Petal Palette Congratulations

I've been spending some time using retiring favourites this month.  Today's card is CASE'd from the 2018-2019 Annual Catalogue.

I stamped the rose image on the So Saffron card base in So Saffron ink.  Looking again at the catalogue photo I think they must have applied So Saffron ink very lightly to a Whisper White card base, probably with a sponge brayer, then stamped-off the rose image.  

The Daffodil Delight pennant was embossed with one of the Petal Pair embossing folders.  I inked up the rose stamp again with Petal Pink and Mint Macaron Stampin' Write Markers and cut it and the leaves out with the Petals & More Thinlits Dies.  The sentiment is stamped in Blackberry Bliss ink.

Can you see the Gold Metallic Thread in the picture?  It's much more visible, and the Basic Adhesive-Backed Sequins more muted in real life.  It's funny what the lighting will cause the camera to emphasise.

I fully expect this kit to sell out quickly...you may pre-order with me now, and I will collect payment from you before placing an order on May 15. This will save you having to remember on the day!
