F is for Friends

Welcome to the Everything ABC's Blog Hop!

For this hop we will be featuring the letter F. This may be the name of a paper, a stamp set or an embellishment. Whatever the crafter has chosen as their F element will be featured in their post.

If you came from Darlys  then you're on the right track!

For this letter, I decided to feature the Happy To Be Friends stamp set, as I wanted to make some cards to give to my friends as a thank you for all that they do for me.

I started off by choosing my colour scheme of Colonial White, Ruby and Peacock.



I firstly stamped my sentiment in Black ink using the Happy To Be Friends stamp set. Then I added the larger flower cluster to the left hand side using Ruby ink.



I repeated the large flower cluster in Peacock ink. I played with different placement on both cards so that they wouldn't be exactly the same.



I then filled in most of the gaps using the smaller single flower and Fern ink.



As my finishing touch to the floral border, I added some of the Gold Glitter Gems in varying sizes.



I matted my stamped panel onto the Ruby and Peacock cardstock.



And here are the finished cards, placed on a Colonial White card base and ready to give to my friends!
