This is the first card set I have made. I made it back in January while at craft retreat but they have been sitting on the shelf as I couldn't figure out what I was going to do with the missing element--an outline around the edge. I really wanted to stitch the border on the pale pink cardstock, but I forgot until after I had adhered all them together with permanent adhesive.
Then it dawned on me--I could do an outline border with yellow marker!
After I stamped the image, I colored in areas with my Copics. The pearls were adhered with Glossy Accents and aren't going anywhere!
This set I left free of sentiments. The inside is simply stamped with a single flower on the kraft cardstock.
I put them in an acetate box I adorned with a yellow ribbon. The four of them fit perfectly in the box with room to spare for the envelopes.
Paper: Papertrey Ink - Sweet Blush, Autumn Rose, Kraft
Ink: PTI - Autumn Rose
Embellishment: The Paper Studio - pearls, PTI - Lemon Tart twill ribbon
Other: Copic - BV0000, Y11, YG11; Sharpie Ultra Fine - yellow; acetate box

Gorgeous set of cards. Love how you have the panel tilted. The frame is a great finishing touch. Love the inside stamped image too!

Lovely card set. That frame looks great, must try it as my stitching leaves a lot to be desired!
