Mel inspired flower



The big flower on this card was stamped three times and then I cut out 3 different sections of the flower. I then coated the petals with crystal effects and mounted the layers of the flower with the dimensionals. The crystal effects on the flower was inspired by my SBS2 sis, Mel. She does some fabulous stuff with crytal effects!(and other things too)

I'm still having fun with my new In Colors! This is my favorite color combo so far. I can't stop using it!

Recipe: Fabulous Flowers
Paper: Kiwi Kiss, Taken with Teal, Whisper White, Bella Rose designer paper
Ink: Kiwi Kiss, Tango Orange, Taken with Teal
Other: Crystal effects, stampin' dimensionals

This is gorgeous! FOrgot how much I love this stamp set! I've never cut it out 3 times like that and layered it, it's beautiful! And you're right, that color combo is great. Just realized I haven't used Tangerine Tango yet!
