Welcome to the ODBD July 1 release blog hop! If you arrived here from Sabrina Jackson’s blog, you are in the right place! If not, you might want to start at the ODBD Blog where you will see the entire list with links just in case any are broken along the way!
These new Sweet William images are just wonderful! They were made to coordinate with the Spellbinders Blossom 3. I stamped all the sizes on gold and purple tissue papers and also on some wide gold tulle ribbon and then die cut them. After stacking them, I put a gold brad through the center and wrinkled and distressed them within an inch of their lives, lol. I added another piece of the tulle behind the flower then had to get creative with the gold embossed sentiment. This is one BIG flower and I didn’t have much room left on my 5.5 x 4.25 card. I used a border punch across the bottom of the gold layer and backed the flower with a gold embossed fancy label.
Thanks so much for stopping by!
