To recreate the background baubles card. You will need:
Night of Navy card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛” – rounded upper left corner

Scrap Night of Navy & Basic White
I began by stamping the bauble randomly across one of the panels of Basic White in Night f Navy ink.

I coloured around each bauble using the light Pool Party Blends Marker and used the colour lifter to fade the colour out. This technique helps to ‘ground’ the baubles.

The stamped panel was then added to the Fresh Freesia layer with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive. I wrapped a length of Pool Party Sheer Ribbon around the panel, adhering it on the back with Sellotape and mounted the whole piece on the Night of Navy card front using the same liquid glue.

The sentiment from the Christmas to Remember stamp set was stamped in Night of Navy ink onto scrap Basic White card and die cut using the Painted Labels Dies. I die cut the same label from scrap Night of Navy card, cut it across the middle and added it to the top and bottom or the sentiment before adding it to the card front on Dimensionals.

A bow was added with a Mini Glue dot and a trio of Pastel Pearls completed the card.
