Fern & Flora Better Place Collage Card

Greetings! 

Today's card features the beautiful NEW! Fern & Flora stamp & die bundle, along with the Moonlit Flora Designer Series Paper (DSP).  These papers capture the beauty of a garden at nighttime, with lush greenery, ferns, and delicate floral accents set against rich, dramatic backdrops.  Absolutely stunning!  The stamp set is filled with nature inspired imagery and heartfelt sentiments, such as the one on today's card.

Techniques include coloring with Stampin' Blends, die cutting, and creating a collage look with layered stamping and die cuts.

==============================================================================

Beverly's Tip of the Day

For this card, notice how I used Very Vanilla for the panel and Basic White for the colored flowering plant and the sentiment label.  I find the Very Vanilla gives colors a little bit softer look rather than the starkness a dark color on a white background can sometimes appear.  It also makes the white stand out a bit more for both the plant and the label.

If your natural reaction is to go to white for your base panel, give Very Vanilla or even Basic Beige a try.  It's fun to see how much a non white background can change the entire mood of the card.
