It’s Day 4 of the Mama Elephant Stamp Highlights for the May Release and today the design team is featuring Sweet Havana and Sweet Havana Creative Cuts. This card was inspired by this pin and I used the bridge from Sightseeing to create the art deco style wallpaper for the background.
I heat embossed the centres of the flowers and also rock ‘n’ rolled the vase in blue and green, pulling in those two colours from the photo. To create the antique look of the table, I modified the stitched panel from Femme Frames Creative Cuts, then watercolored it with black, brown and gold Gansai watercolour paints. You can find links below for 12, 18, 24 and 36 colour collections. I have the 36 colour set and you need the gold and silver since those don’t come with the smaller sets. 😉
Please be sure to visit the rest of the design team to see what they came up with using Sweet Havana.
