Do you ever look at graphic shapes and wonder what to do with them? Today I share 2 easy examples of how they can be used on a floral card design. this is part of my Take 2 With Therese series at Altenew and if you haven’t seen these videos before you can check them out HERE.
My focus is on the Spheres & Spirals set from Altenew and to be honest I had so many ideas how to use these that I felt a bit overwhelmed lol. When that happens to me I always just go back to the basics and keep it simple.
Starting with my new fave card making colour ‘blue’, out came the Navy Cardstock yet again and I heat embossed the design in Rose Gold which looks so very pretty.
I chose to combine the Mountain Mist cardstock with the navy.
And for both designs I added some Artist Marker Coloured Pen Sketched Flowers
For my second card I stamped a simple repeated background using Mountain Mist ink to match the cardstock in my first design.
Both cards have sentiments from the Engraved Flowers Stamp Set
and some sparkly jewels for pizzazz!
You can see my video here or Watch it in HD on YouTube.

Do you like to stamp out your very own backgounds I find it a great way to use graphic style stamps (and let me ‘keep / hoard’ my design paper wink)? You can see another example of this set on a card I made for the release post HERE. I’ll be back soon, Hugs,

Both of your cards are stunning!! I love the rose gold embossing on the navy cardstock. So pretty!
Your cards are lovely. I love how you mixed the shapes with the flowers.
Your cards are so pretty. I love the colours!
Therese, I can always count on you to have some of the most beautiful cards of the entire blog hop! Thank you!
Thank you so much for the video tutorial. I love combining floral and geometric design elements. Off to my craft room, you’ve inspired me! 😃
Amazing cards, Therese! I love the rose gold embossing powder on the navy cardstock! So elegant!
The rose gold EP is beautiful I’ll have to buy some. TY for your examples
I love both of these cards Therese! Your beautiful colouring and the subtle background of the first, makes such a feminine card, and the second card is just dazzling! Thank you so much for your video!
Stunning!
Gorgeous colour combination today! The flower colouring is lovely. I like this new stamp set. I will have to check it out.
These are so elegant! Great cards!
Beautiful cards!! The images from Spheres and Spirals remind me of the Spirograph set I played with as a child. Fabulous!!
That’s exactly what I thought of too, I did like that game but found it very frustrating if I made just a ‘little’ mistake I had to start all over again lol.
Yet more gorgeous cards! Love them both.
Reading the comment above – agree just like spriograph – I still have mine!
What an elegant colour combo, Therese … love how the soft coral and aqua play off the navy and that stunning rose gold! A beautiful duo! Hugs, Anita 🙂
Beautiful cards, Therese. I think using the same colour palette makes perfect sense, and gives your all post a coordinated look. 😛
That gold spiral frame is stunning, Therese, and the colors of the flowers look so good with the Navy.
Navy and coral just hit me as a beautiful color combo. Love the addition of the mint. So stunning.
