Lovely Romance in Razzleberry

Today's card is made with the Lovely Romance set that is part of the Venetian Romance Suite of products on pg. 61 of the Annual Catalog.  Two of the stamps in the set coordinate with framelits for quick and easy die cutting!  The focal piece of this card coordinates with a framelit from the Chalk Talk set so it is cut out perfectly!

My color scheme is Smoky Slate (the card base), Rich Razzleberry and Pear Pizzazz.  I frequently consult my Color Coach when I began a project; Stampin' Up! also comes out with a new In Colors add-on every year for the Color Coach, so it is always up-to-date.  Love that.

A layer of Rich Razzleberry cardstock was dry embossed with the Modern Mosaic TIEF then adhered to a  Pear Pizzazz layer; a length of Pear Pizzazz 3/4" Chevron Ribbon was then wrapped around and secured.  The three-flower rectangle was stamped with Rich Razzleberry onto Whisper White cardstock and cut out, embellished with three Rhinestones that I colored with a Sharpie then adhered to the ribbon... a perfect fit!

Here you can see the other bling I added to the card:  little four-petal flowers punched out with a punch from the Itty Bitty Shapes Punch Pack; I use this punch SO much!  

TIP:  But what.. the Glimmer Paper is green?  Yes, I took a strip of Silver Glimmer Paper, my AquaPainter filled with alcohol and dipped it in Pear Pizzazz ink refill to color the Glimmer Paper.  When dry I punched out my little flowers!  I love that we can have more colors of bling this way!  : )

I made another version of this card on a Whisper White card embossed with the Framed Tulips embossing folder and promised I'd add it.  Here it is:
