Orange Blossom Easter

Again this is a one layer card and again I used images from Gina K. Designs Stately Flowers 8 set. This is the last floral image on the set and since I had never inked it up before I decided it was a good time to do so.


I had no clue as to what color orange blossoms were so I had to check it out on the computer and see a few photos. I saw that they were mostly white blossoms. So I tried to keep my images as white as possible with only adding a little light gray color here and there on the petals. I again used the new set of Zig markers I purchased. I sponged orange colors around the images so that they would pop more. I finished the card by adding a few orange rhinestones randomly and a orange and white polka dot ribbon. I messed up by the butterfly a bit and got outside the lines, but we will pretend it is just some shadow. LOL Afterall, if it were perfect no one would know it was handmade, right?

Well, I finally used all of the flowers from that set on a card so I accomplished what I had set out to do. I hope you enjoyed seeing what I did with them as well.

Have a super evening everyone and thanks for visiting once again.

God bless,
Verna

Who knew that orange blossoms are mostly white. You did a great job on the coloring of these flowers too. Good to have used every stamp on the set.

Oh, I can just smell those orange blossoms. They are the most fragrant flower there is I think. You colored them beautifully, and that ribbon is just the icing on the cake with this one.
