Hello and welcome!
I had a little time to play in the cave today and I came up with this one layer floral card using Unity Stamps Summer Time Bouquet. I just love this cluster of flowers and the sentiment in this set.
I stamped the first cluster and heat embossed it, then colored it with a combination of alcohol and watercolor markers. Then I covered the image with a VersaMarker (ala Jennifer McGuire's recent video about masking with embossing) and then heat embossed the whole first image in clear. Next I stamped the cluster again, wiped away the ink from the first image with a dry cloth, and heat embossed the outlined image. I colored the 2nd one and then after it dried, I added Versamarker and clear embossing to the whole 2nd image. Then I added the sentiment and heat embossed it. I added some sparkle with a gel pen and some black dots with Distress Ink in black soot. Then I took the Tim Holtz rays stencil and very lightly added a little yellow ink to form a glow from the flowers.
Lastly I rounded 3 corners of the card for interest.
Here's a closer view of the image:
Thanks so much for stopping by!
