CREATIVITY LIVES HERE: Celebrating Bev

Saturday, August 31, 2013

Today's post is very special :) The Uniko Studio Design Team has put together a Surprise Bridal Blog Hop honoring Beverley. Her wedding is just days away, and we want to show our support of her super special day!

Beverley - I wish you so much joy as you celebrate the love and commitment between you and your fiance! I know just how special this time is for you, and I hope everything goes perfect, and that you will create memories that you will remember FOREVER!!! Sending all my love, Nicki :)

Ok, onto the card! I used the Pure Florals: Chrysanthemum clear stamp set as the main focus of this card. The large flower is embossed using white embossing powder. I colored it with Prismacolor pencils--two shades of teal. The flower and leaves were both cut using Uniko's awesome new dies!! The flower is popped up with foam dimensionals.

The background pattern was created using Background Basics: Lattice, with white ink. With the addition of the sentiment flag and the sequins and pearls, the card is complete! I think this is one of my favorite cards EVER. :)

Be sure to visit the Uniko Studio blog and send your well wishes to Beverley as she quickly approaches her special wedding day! Then, get hopping along to the design team members' blogs to see their absolutely FABULOUS creations!!!

Easy to see why it is one of your favourites - it's simply spectacular!! I think I'm going to have to ask Bev to send me that Lattice set as well as it looks like I need it, lol! *Love* your colour combo here and the added sequins and pearls are just the perfect finishing touch!!

I think I am going to be very emotional by the end of the blog hop. Each of you have made me feel SO very special and loved & I am so grateful & blessed to have you all as friends & part of my team. I too can see why this card is one of your faves, it is stunning. The colour scheme is perfect & the Chrysanth looks divine with the lattice. Hugs Bev xx
