Nature's Symphony in Pretty Peacock

Nature's Symphony Bundle + Fern & Flora Bundle

One of the most beautiful colors that I am drawn to create with over and over is Stampin' Up! ® Pretty Peacock. I love the cardstock, the ink and how well it pairs with so many other colors. So I was thrilled that this week's Monochromatic Insta Hop color is Pretty Peacock!

I have softly blended ink onto Luxe White Specialty paper.... the leaves and sentiment are from the Nature's Symphony Bundle..... and those sweet little moths are from the Fern & Flora Bundle.

Nature's Symphony Bundle + Fern & Flora Bundle

The main color is Pretty Peacock, but for the moths I used Stampin' Blends I used the Light Pretty Peacock and the Dark Lost Lagoon. The texture of the Luxe White 12" x 12" Specialty Paper is beautiful by itself, so I chose not to add any gems or ribbon on my project.

The only thing I wish I had done differently, is that I think the inner leaves would look more natural if I had positioned in the left corner and over the decorative strip. Or if it was in the lower left corner that would have reduced how busy the top of the message liner is.

Glow of Harvest Thank You Card

Scalloped Blooms Stamp Set + Glow of Harvest 12" x 12" DSP + Country Woods 12" x 12" DSP

If you have followed me for any amount of time, you know I have a special place in my heart for pumpkins. My youngest daughter was born on Halloween and our family has used pumpkins for many birthday events. Super tender memories for me. When I saw the pumpkins on this product of the month, I made sure I got mine early!

So have you checked out the Glow of Harvest Specialty DSP that is Stampin' Up! ® Product of the month right now? With a minimum purchase of $75, you can buy this specialty paper for $5. Here is the catch... it is while supplies last! Be sure to check out my detail view, as you can really see the shimmer on the paper. It is so soft and beautiful!

I have paired this gorgeous paper with the Country Woods 12" x 12" DSP (on sale through the end of the month).

The pumpkins are fussy cut from one of the sheets of Glow of Harvest specialty paper.

Scalloped Blooms Stamp Set + Glow of Harvest 12" x 12" DSP + Country Woods 12" x 12" DSP

Just look at that shimmer! So pretty! I heat embossed the font sentiment using gold embossing powder. To coordinate well with the linen thread, I used the Pearls of Beauty as my gems. FYI... the Pearls of Beauty are on the last chance list and are discounted.

Pecan Pie ink + a sponge dauber was used to add color to the edge of the DSP and the fussy cut pumpkins.
