Melissa Phillips shows us some creativity with gelatos for this weeks MIM,
Valentine Ombre Stamping.
Her card blends die cuts with ombre, and, as only she can,
whips up a pink parfait perfection!
I had some gelatos called 'Macaroons', I hadn't tried yet, and
way behind on my Valentines, thought I'd give Enclosed: Heart the
gelato treatment.
Aside from being way to pale to photograph well, I sort of like
the card.
And 'like' is as far as I'll go.
I filled My Favorite Things Umbrella die with the sweet blooms from Enclosed: Heart,
and added tiny pearls and pink sequins.
Embroidered Borders stamped with Spring Rain.
I loved Melissa's slim card, so went with a 3 1/2 x 5 1/2" card size.
Think the pink sequins helped brighten things up a bit, but I definitely
like her rich pinks better!
The pink sequins are a wonderful addition! Sequins are such a good go-to embellishment! Wonderful design!!
