I had so much fun making my design team card for April's challenge - I made two! But you'll have to wait until the 15th to see the other! For today, take a peek at my Pretty Pastels for The Flower Challenge #55...
A new to me set from Pinkfresh Studio - Floral Notes, were stamped with
Copic-friendly Catherine Pooler ink, colored with the Copics below, and then
re-stamped with Versa Clair nocturne ink.
After cutting with the coordinating die, I placed it on a slimline card in a wonderful pastel shade card stock - Grapesicle! a favorite of a friend of mine who just had to share! With the cuts from the MFT line of card stock, I hope she doesn't regret it!
My front panel was given a bit of texture with my SU subtle texture embossing folder - yes, I did have to go from both ends - you can hardly tell, that folder is so forgiving. I also found a few pretty pastel enamel dots in my stash! Bonus!
TFC is being sponsored by Varadashma.com with a gift code of $10 for digital stamps in her shop for the winner this month. They have provided some of the team with digital stamps to use.
That's it for me - our TFC team will be checking out which pastel shades
you will choose from your favorite colors ! and we have the lovely Keia as our guest
this month - wait until you see all the gorgeousness!
See you in the #TFC55 gallery!

So pretty! Such perfect Spring colours, Jo x
This is as close to pastel perfection as I've ever seen. The colors are sooooo Spring-y and Easter-y...love the soft purple cardbase and the flowers. Kind of ethereal and so appropriate for this time of year. Can we also talk about how beautifully you incorporated the sentiment, as well?
Your flower spray is so pretty Michele. Looks amazing over the texture and gorgeous colour of your card front. Aren't friends that share awesome??!! xx
Oh, this is just so pretty! I love those outlined flowers...and the lavender background is just as lovely!
Oh I totally love this. So darned pretty.
Simply pretty pastel colored and die cut flowers mounted on your pretty slimline card base, Michele. TFS Love and Hugs..Nancy
What a lovely card, Michele. Wonderfully soft and pretty color palette and just the right touch of texture in the background. A real winner. Hugs!
This is just gorgeous, Michele. That lavender paper is indeed delicious. This card screams with you of Easter and Spring. I hope you had a happy day!
This is absolutely BEAUTIFUL Michele!! I am still waiting for that Floral Notes to come back in stock (have the die but NEED the stencil and possibly the stamp too!)! Your pastel coloring is SO pretty and I love the grapesickle card base that you embossed...lovely, lovely card my friend!! Loved all your Friday Fun-day cards and ALL your Waffle Flower cards too (Can't keep up with you!!). You have been on a roll lately and I'm loving them all!! Hugs. :0)
So gorgeous and I love the slimline...I have yet to make one! Bless
How can you not love a color named Grapesicle?!?!? This floral spray is as sweet as can be!
What a beautiful floral spray, Michele, made even more so by that fabulously textured lavender paper. I think my Subtle folder is subtler that yours.
Michele, I love this sweet flower spray, it really stands out against that lovely violet embossed background, love, love the candy dots, beautifully done!!
Stay healthy and safe.

Such lovely spring colors Michele! And I love how you went back and stamped the spray again for that added POP!
What a dreamy card! Love the pretty lilac cardstock and those lovely blooms!
Beautiful! Lovely florals, and they're sitting pretty on that wonderful cs -- great colors!
so beautiful!!

So pretty 😍. I love your soft pastel copic coloring on those pretty flowers.
Oh I do love this gorgeous card Michele! I'm a pastel gal, I'm also a every other color gal too. lol But really love pastels. This floral spray is just gorgeous, and you have colored it up so beautifully as well! I love the "touch" of color in an other wise white/black image. It's perfection to say the least. I think I need to refer to your projects when coloring and try to get the same look! Try being the key word here. lol I thought the slimline card had that texture in the paper, didn't realize until I read that it was an embossing folder you used! Love that folder! I think when I go to make cards next month I will be asking about that folder. Your little pastel enamel dots are the perfect finishing touch. Hugs, Brenda
I love this soft purple shade and it's extra lovely with the texture! A perfect match for your Copic coloring of the beautiful die cut flowers!
So delicate and pretty and the coloured cardstock with the embossing looks fabulous Michele x. Such a feminine and beautiful card x.
Lovely!
Wonderful soft colours and that background texture is just magic xx
Such a pretty card, Michele! I love how you colored the blooms in soft pastels and the texture on your card base is fabulous! Who knew we could run it through from both sides and get such a great result? Thanks so much for sharing that little tip with us~ xx
I’ve never been a fan of lavender/purple however this is just the sweetest card!!! Beautifully done.
Soft, delicate and oh so pretty, Michele ... the texture-y background sets these lovely blooms off beautifully! Hugs, Anita :)
Pretty slimline design, Michele! Love the clean look and the tiny heart next to your sentiment :) !
So gorgeous Michele, what a lovely slimline design.
Oh, Michele, this is the card you were talking about last week! LOVE the spray of spring flowers on my favorite Grapesicle! Actually, the SU embossing folder (subtle texture) is also one of my favorite craft supplies! The pastel enamel dots and the tiny heart are so pretty too.

Beautiful! And I just got that set so I'm definitely saving your card for inspiration!!
Beautiful card Michele and I love the purple pastel. So pretty!
