For An Amazing Friend!

Today I'm playing at the Beautiful Blossoms Challenge where it's anything goes with an optional mood board photo of some very colorful flowers! I'm playing along with some pretties from Pretty Pink Posh!

I started by arranging the teacup and flowers on a piece of plastic the size of my card base. This gives me a preview of what the finished design will look like without committing and adhering everything in place.

The clear plastic also allows me to slip different backgrounds underneath until I find one that makes me happy. For this card I wanted something light so that the flowers would pop, but not too light so that the white tea cup would disappear. A blush color was the perfect solution!
The background is a Scallops Pierced Plate. It adds lots of interest to a plain flat background. It can be a little tricky to adhere. I find that tape adhesive doesn't work so well with a textured background so I always use a liquid glue.
I'm so happy with how this card turned out! I hope you find some time to play too!
