Here’s another background idea for you, this time using the Nested Essentials dies!
Six die cuts are needed, I used 3 in Basic White, 2 in Pool Party and 1 in Night of Navy.
The Basic White shapes were adhered first. The centre one was added last and helps with positioning the coloured pieces.
The sentiment is taken from Wonderful Thoughts and stamped with Blueberry Bushel ink.
You can see how I made this card in my video tutorial….
A combination of Thoughtful Wishes and Sentimental Park created the foliage and flowers. Some Wink of Stella pulled some colour from the stamped outline.
This card used Calypso Coral and Petal Pink, not my favourite colours, but look great together in this layout.
I also creating this version when I was designing today’s project. This one uses the smaller shape in Basic White. The flowers are in Melon Mambo and the sentiment in Pebbled Path.

I love making my own backgrounds, and today I’m adding dimension too!
I’m working with Boho Blue and Shy Shamrock, In Colours from both collections – they worked together better than I thought they would!
You can see how I made this card in my video tutorial….
The small image from the Layers of Beauty stamp set was was stamped, coloured and die cut…. I used 12 in the end…. Then added them to the card panel with dimensionals.
Punched pieces were layered together to create the sentiment feature and embellished with Bordered Ribbon and Iridescent Pearls.
Here’s another version using Pretty in Pink, Lost Lagoon and Pretty Peacock!
