I have two more cards to share with you today.
Card One:
Hollyhocks CC408
In My Heart D13912
Hollyhocks DIE169-R
INSIDE |
I used my Misti to stamp the Hollyhocks onto Canson bristol XL recycled paper. I repeated stamping, using different shades of pinks and violets. I removed the paper from the Misti, and used distress reinkers to paint the petals. I added additional details with colored pencils. I used blue distress ink for the background.
I die cut the Hollyhocks die, and painted them with the distress ink colors that I had used on the Hollyhocks.
I added the In My Heart verse on a strip of the same paper, using foam tape for extra dimension.
Card Two:
Flora & Fauna CL1025
Flower Bits CL1024
I stamped the images from both sets onto bristol card stock, and colored them with Polychromos colored pencils, then fussy-cut them out.
INSIDE |
For the panel base, I used a happy birthday embossing plate from my stash. I brushed some distress ink over it to help the words stand out a bit more. I attached the panel to a green A2 card front.
I arranged and adhered the flowers and foliage to the card. On the inside, I used the D20728 Special Day stamp.
I hope you like my cards.
I will be back tomorrow with more cards. You can find links to the other designer's posts on the Impression Obsession blog HERE.
Thanks for stopping by.
