Hello Friends!
Today I'm sharing a card made with the More Fresh Picked Collection by Spellbinders. The first half of this collection was released a few months ago and there are a few more die sets for part 2 of this collection. The set I've used today is the Fresh Picked Angel Trumpets die set. I chose some dramatic colours for the leaves and forals and set it up against that gorgeous Spellbinders mahogany cardstock. My sentiment was taken from some leftover sentiments that I cut from the Glimmering Flowers Collection (also released this month). I hope you like this card as much as I do!

To get this card going, I first chose some dramatic ink colours. I chose to use Altenew inks because it's what I have on hand. I find the trick to getting this dramatic look is to use dark colors on a dark background that fade into a lighter colour. So I went with peach and pink as my light colours and dark blue and purple on a mahogany background as my dark colours. This was honestly the hardest part and the rest is simple.
I cut all of the dies minus the flower centers from white cardstock and inked them up starting with the lightest colour. Then I cut the flower centers and flower bases from Spellbinders black glitter cardstock (which comes in an assorted pack with more colours). I assembled the entire image with a mix of tape runner, liquid glue and foam adhesive on Spellbinders Mahogany cardstock which I embossed with the Geo Quilt 3D Embossing folder (one of my faves).
Then, I added the banner sentiment from the Curved Everyday Sentiments glimmer plate and die set (from the Glimmering Flowers Collections). And I finished this card off with a mix of Spellbinders gold gems and some Pinkfresh Studio glitter gems.
