Today I’m sharing a card with pastel colors designed on an all white background. I used these same dies a few weeks ago with bright colors and a brightly colored card base that matched the shelf and the card had a very different look. I like how the shelve done in white adds dimension but allows the vases and flowers to stand out on their own.
For this project I used the Rubbernecker Crosshatch, Vases and Shelves, Nested Rectangle Scallop with Holes, Leaves and Greenery, Small Flowers #1 and Kittie Says Phrases #1.
The Card Base and Crosshatch Shelf
- Cut the card base , scalloped layer and shelf using white cardstock.
- Stamp the Sending Love sentiment on the scalloped layer using Nocturne ink.
- Apply strips of mounting tape to the back of the scalloped layer and attach it to the card base.
- Apply thin strips of mounting tape to the back of the shelving and attach it to the scalloped layer.
The Pastel Vases and Flowers
- Cut the vases and flower using pink, purple and yellow cardstock.
- Use green cardstock to cut the foliage pieces.
- Attach the foliage to the back of the vases using glossy accents.
- Form all the small flowers using a small tipped stylus and pad.
- Double layer the pink flowers and attach them together using glossy accents.
- Attach all the flowers to the foliage using glossy accents.
- Fill in each flower center with tiny white premade Nuvo Crystal Drops and attach using glossy accents.
- Apply pieces of mounting tape to the back of the bases and attach them to the shelf and card base.
I hope you enjoyed seeing my card with pastel colors and all white background. I thought the sending love sentiment was perfect with the soft and delicate card. You can check out this Vases and Shelves link to see all the cards I have made with these dies. Check out this Pinterest link for more pastel card inspiration. Thank you for coming by today and I hope you have a safe and healthy week.

A card with pastel colors on an all white background is so pretty.
Beautiful card and love the pastel colors
LOVE the pastels too, Kittie! Those little flowers just blow me away every time I see them! I LOVE the detail to them. Gotta get some of those next order, along with those vases! I like how the white on white creates the shadow on your card too! EXCELLENT WORK, Kittie!!! ;)<3
