Background Accents—I layered half of a brand new Lace Doilies accent on the background, too. These pretty new doilies are heavier laser-cut card stock, not traditional-style delicate doilies. One side is white and the other is vanilla, so it will coordinate with any stamping project!
I also wrapped some Flirty Flamingo Ruched Ribbon around the card front and tied it into a double-knot faux-bow.
Sweet Stamping—I stamped the Beautiful You line image, along with a coordinating sentiment from the same set, in Memento Black Ink onto a 3-1/4" x 3-1/4" piece of Whisper White card stock. Then, I stamped the wash image in Flirty Flamingo ink over the top for a quick & artistic look! Love it!
Finishing Touches—I finished by layering the stamped layer offset over a 3-1/2" x 3-1/2" piece of Flirty Flamingo card stock, and popping both layer with Dimensionals. I finished by adding a couple of Pearl Jewels to the corner. I think it would be fun to put a little Wink of Stella on the dress color, too!
Two Cool—I created a second version using another image from the Beautiful You set, along with another fun greeting from the set. I also changed the colored elements to Peekaboo Peach. So pretty!
