I used the beautiful new Simon Says Stamp Chinese Lantern Stem die from their new Good Luck Charm release, to make a mini slimline card...
I researched Chinese Lanterns to find that they are orange. I decided to color the stems and leaves green and the borders of the flowers orange. I layered the flowers and inserted orange die cut pieces that had been cut from textured cardstock. I used a sentiment from the CZ Design Well Wishes stamp set, stamping it at the base of the stem. I popped up the flowers on the card base, and added some Tonic Jewel drops. Here's a close up...
I then paired my card with one of the Simon envelopes made especially for mini slimline cards...and it's orange, just like the lanterns...
This card makes me happy...hoping that whoever I send it to will feel the same!
Thanks for stopping by my blog today!!
Hugs!! Lisa
Such sweet flowers! I love that they're orange, and so fresh and bright
