AH 370 - Holographic Paper with Flowers


Welcome to Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge #370!


This week's sketch is so perfect just as it is - and I didn't alter much except the sentiment shape.  

I chose a stamp set called Wild Rose to stamp my flowers and leaves. They were coloured and then die cut. The sentiment was stamped and also die cut along with a gold glitter paper background. The background paper is holographic paper (and very difficult to photograph) and I embossed that piece. A strip of Gold Shimmer Trim was added and then the flowers and leaves were adhered. I added a stitched background piece around the card to bring out the green of the leaves and the holographic paper. The centre of each flower had a gold gem added and the other gems were coloured to match the flowers. I also brushed around the centre of each flower with the Clear Shimmer Brush.

I can't imagine how cool that must look in real life with the holographic paper and effects from the light. Nice take on that sketch too, I really struggled with that one!

Hello, Alyson! It's been way too long since I've visited your blog! Your flowers are gorgeous and I like how you used holographic paper! I agree, very hard to photograph so a beautiful as it looks in the photo, I know this card is even more gorgeous in real life!
