one hitch though... you already know I'm pink-challenged, and I just really don't have any smallish flower dies as cute as these. Having just finished coloring a few PTI Botanical Blocks, I'd love to use one... hey! There's my "twist" - stamped instead of die-cut flowers, and yellows instead of pinks! [wow... that's a bit of a stretch.] But wait!!! Look that's exactly what the fabulous guest DT Sarah did - kind of?!!
I created the embossed area with a Stampin' Up folder, leaving an un-embossed area for stamping the sentiment - a favorite from Technique Tuesday. My tag was actually a Reverse Confetti tag, partially cut to include the tag top, but with a straight edge, which I then pinked to mimic the look of the embossing.
Thanks, Kylie, for inspiring me to use a tag on a card. Something I don't do very often. Very nice to CASE you at Time Out!
Seems to me you were beautifully inspired, Michele ... floral tag, embossing, ribbon, lots of white space ... et alors?? Wait till you see my mid challenge reminder! As ever, always a delight to have you play along with us at Time Out! Anita :)
