My card for today was created for the...
Creative Colour Challenge #131.
For my "Birthday" card, I used Stampin' Up! Magnolia Mood & Charming Sentiments Stamp Sets, Magnolia Mood Dies & Layered Florals 3D Embossing Folder.
I began with my card base using Garden Green cardstock. The Soft Sea Foam cardstock was embossed using the Layered Florals 3D Embossing Folder. Seriously, this is the most gorgeous embossing folder and I can't get enough of it!!
The embossed cardstock was cut at an angle with two cuts. With your scissors opened up, distress the edges of each piece.
Garden Green ink was added around the edges of the card front only with a Blending Brush, creating a darker edge.
The splatters were created using Garden Green & Daffodil Delight inks and a Water Painter by squeezing the ink pad to create a pool of ink on the lid and squeezed a bit of water onto it and hit the water painter onto my finger to create the splatters.
The floral image was stamped with Memento ink and colored with Daffodil Delight and Soft Sea Foam Stampin' Blends Markers. I didn't color the flower completely, leaving some white areas. The image was then die cut. Two additional smaller flowers were also stamped, colored and die cut and adhered behind the larger image.
The Daffodil was a little too dark for me, so I brushed the Color Lifter Stampin' Blends over it to lighten all the flowers.
The leaves were colored with Soft Sea Foam ink.
The embellishments are Glossy Dots Assortment.
Several of the leaves were die cut with Soft Sea Foam cardstock. Using a Blending Brush, I added additional color at the stem of the leaves and colored outward towards the tip of the leaves with Soft Sea Foam ink. Next, using another Blending Brush, I added Garden Green ink at the stem of the leaves and about half way up the leaf. The leaves were adhered behind the floral image.
Linen Thread was looped twice and adhered behind the flowers and adhered onto the card front with Stampin' Dimensionals.
The sentiment was stamped with Garden Green ink on Basic White and flagged on the right. To soften the white cardstock, using a Blending Brush and Garden Green ink, colored the white cardstock.
It doesn't show in these photos, but Wink of Stella was brushed lightly over all of the flowers to create just a touch of shimmer.
The smaller floral image was stamped on the front of the envelope with Memento ink.
Inside my card is a Soft Sea Foam cardstock with a layer of Basic White.
The smaller flower image was stamped with Memento ink and colored the same as the larger floral image.
The sentiment is from Charming Sentiments Stamp Set, stamped with Garden Green ink.
Thanks so much for stopping by my blog.
