Greenhouse Gala Meets Pendant Notes

Good morning!  I'm back again with the second card we created at this month's hostess club.  This card is again CASE'd from the new Idea Book -- this time I drew inspiration from the Pendant Card on page 124 (and had to recreate the embossing on the envelope flap, too!  That uses the new Vintage Wallpaper Embossing Folder. Such a beautiful touch!) 

Here's what we created:


This card was so quick and easy to put together -- definitely fast and fabulous!  We simply added a square of the Greenhouse Gala Designer Series Paper behind the die cut window in the note.  Then, inserted one of the beautiful new Antique Brads through a 1" Circle of the designer paper and a 1 1/4" Circle of Early Espresso.  Attached that piece with a glue dot, and added the paper strips at the bottom.  For a finishing touch, we spritzed on some Smooch Spritz -- either Gold Glow or Vanilla Shimmer. 

I took the card outside and tried to get a photo that would show off the shimmer -- here's the best I could do:


I know, you have to look very closely to see the gold flecks on this one -- but it really does look very sparkly and elegant in real life!  If you haven't tried the Smooch Spritz for yourself yet, you really should! 

Thanks for stopping by!
