Happy Wednesday, peeps! I was playing around a little more with the Lily of the Valley bundle, and challenged myself to use it with some colors I rarely use: Granny Apple Green and Lemon Lime Twist. When I looked at pictures of the lilies on the internet, the stems were an intense green, and that was my jumping-off point! I diecut some leaves and lilies from some watercolor paper and went to work:
One thing about these colors is that (to me), they just don't photograph well. This looks way too yellow in my photo, and it's really a nice light green. Anyway, I used Granny Apple Green to color the stems and leaves, then mounted it on a piece of embossed Lemon Lime Twist. The scalloped panel is a piece of Lemon Lime Twist DSP from last year, stamped with the Scalloped Wishes stamp and diecut with the matching die. The sentiment is also from that set. I didn't add much more; I will add a sentiment on the inside when I need it--it could be for a birthday, get well, or thank you!
"The earth is the Lord's, and everything in it, the world, and all who live in it; for he founded it on the seas and established it on the waters. Who may ascend the mountain of the Lord? Who may stand in his holy place? The one who has clean hands and a pure heart, who does not trust in an idol and swear by a false god." Psalm 24:1-4

This is SO pretty, LeAnne!! Those colors are bright but wowzers, it looks amazing! Great DSP and embossing, too! Well done!!! Stay cool today!
I tend to avoid Lemon Lime Twist also. It is very bright but it really works for your card. The sweet white flowers with the green is wonderfully fresh and cheerful!
I love the detail on this die cut and the Lily of the Valley looks so pretty on the sweet doily like piece! This is perfect for any occasion!
Playing catch up with all of your marvelous cards I've missed. You never disappoint , my friend. I especially like the Lily of the Valley cards and those CUTE kids!
Beautiful card, LeAnne! I have the Scalloped Wishes but haven't used it yet. Thanks for the inspiration!
