Stampin' Up! Wildflower Designs Thank You Card

Happy Saturday, my peeps! Did you have a good Valentine's Day? Lots of chocolate? flowers? cards? Well, just in case it didn't happen, it didn't happen for me either! I am making a Valentine dinner for my family tonight so maybe you've got plans to celebrate today too. The reason I didn't celebrate yesterday is because I'm having some rooms repainted in the condo I've been in for a year. Let me show you the colors I chose...

 

My card base is Soft Sea Foam with a mat of Lost Lagoon and that middle square is a little off. Wish my naked eye could see what the camera sees!

 

I stamped the sentiment in Lost Lagoon and the flowers in Pretty in Pink on the Basic White panel. I added 5 Adhesive-Backed Dragonflies to the front and raised the squares with Dimensionals.

 

The Wildflower Birthday Specialty Designer Series Paper was the inspiration for my color choices of my kitchen, guest bath, and laundry room. 

 

For the inside...

 

 

The living room was already a basic gray but I went with a lighter shade as I only have a sliding glass door for natural light on the main level. The dragonfly from the retired Dragonfly Garden Stamp Set is stamped in Smoky Slate and the sentiment from the retired Treasured Kindness Stamp Set in Lost Lagoon. I added another gold dragonfly.

 

Although the names of the paint were not those of SU, the paint samples were quite close. I made the card for the painters as they were extremely kind and went above and beyond doing things that I couldn't do myself. It was a mother and son team and they love dragonflies. I will miss them when they are done.

My design came from Mystery Stamping with Dani Gurrola and you can see her create her card here.
