CONGRATULATIONS to Stacy (twinshappy) for being today's Featured Stamper! I love Stacy's gallery!!
I chose to CASE her gorgeous set of daffodil notecards. I used my curved mega rectangle Nestabilities like she did and went with a floral theme. I just chose a different Flourishes set, Siberian Iris instead of Sweet Spring. I also changed the colors and used Kaiser Craft adhesive pearls instead of brads.
You can get the Siberian Iris set, Versafine Onyx Black ink, Kaiser Craft pearls, and curved mega rectangle Nestabilities at Stamper's Dream.
My flowers are watercolored with SU markers and Lilac Shimmerz. Rather than painting the Shimmerz directly onto the flower, I mixed it with some water on my brush while doing the watercoloring...it thins out the Shimmerz a little more. Stacy added glitter to the edges of her curved rectangles, so I edged mine with Angel Wings Shimmerz paint. The floral panels are up on Dimensionals. I added a white curved mega rectangle panel to the inside of the Perfect Plum cards...just because writing probably won't show up on the darker colored CS.
Here's a close-up of the Shimmerz:
