Hello there blog friends! You’ll note that I’m on a pink and peach kick, I don’t think it’s going to be over soon so I’ve just given in. No doubt you get in that kind of mood. Lately, I’ve fallen in step with a clean vintage look and my sewing machine is sitting across the room pouting. I say go with it because it does wind down and then you fall in love with another color scheme and your sewing machine becomes your best friend again. Today, a Get Well card for the stash using a phenomenal JustRite Papercrafts background called Secret Garden Background Stamp and a sentiment from the Floral Thank You set.
I heat embossed the background stamp then spread a wash of Victorian Velvet Distress inker to fill the crevices where there was bare paper. Then, I cut one Spellbinders™ Medallion Eight and cut it in half to layer behind Spellbinders™ Labels Twenty Nine. The bottom of the card is bordered with Spellbinders™ A2 Bracket Borders One. Pearls, of course – they’re always the icing :-)

Beautiful card love the background stamp I need some of them. thanks for sharing.
Love this. The background stamp is great. I thought the peach and pink went very well together. the die cut and the ribbon are so lovely. And I love the big blingy pearl in the middle of the ribbon rosette. Gorgeous!
Gorgeous, as always!
Hi, Becca,
I was making a birthday card for my sister yesterday that I thought needed a little more oomph. I remembered that, on another card you had posted, you cut a die cut in half to layer as you have done with the medallion on this card. I tried that and it was just what the card needed. Thank you for blessing us not only with your gorgeous creations but with your ideas and techniques as well.
There is nothing that you do that I don’t like ~ marvelous!! Waiting for that video; hope it is my request for a 50th anniversary card!!

It’s simply lovely! Who wouldn’t feel better receiving a get well card like this.
Just love this Becca
Most lovely. Great idea on cutting the medallion in half the way you did. Had me hunting to see what the spellbinder looked like. Clever use, and one I’ll try to remember. TFS & Happy Sunday.
This is just so gorgeous Becca. I absolutely love this card, it is sooo beautiful and sooo awesome colors on it too.
Love your pink kick! Can’t have too much pink as far as I am concerned. I love how you cut the medallion to frame the sentiment. Lovely!!

Morning Becca, This is a truly pretty and girlie card, I love girlie cards, the pink is gorgeous, and the background stamp is a ‘must have’, it looks so ‘ethereal’, truly stunning.
It is cold and raining, here in Cheshire, England, please send us some of your sun ha ha.
Lots of love from Patricia xx
This background stamp is very deceiving. It sure looks a lot bolder as packaged, but really is very suttle when paired with pastel ink. I am really loving it. As for your pink mood, I guess I am in the same mood lately. Must be contagious. Maybe it is the fact that Spring has sprung in my neck of the woods. Whatever the case, I just can’t seem to get enough of it lately. Beautiful Card.

As always, you inspire and stretch the limits for all of us lucky enough to view your creations. I’ve looked back over the last few posts and am excited and pleased with what I see and hopeful that I may carry some of that creativity away with me.
