Floral Thinking of You


Hi everyone, thank you for stopping by. I hope you are having a great day.

It has been a super busy week for me here, not only has my creative energy been through the roof, I've also been making multiple cards at the same time. I have been trying very hard to do more than one card at a time; I mean, why wouldn't I? All the stuff is already out on my desk and I can always use an extra card.


To create today's card, I began by masking off a stripe about an inch and a half from the top of the panel, on Copic friendly paper.

I then stamped the open flowers using Memento Tuxedo Black ink. Leaving the mask in place, I stamped the foliage with the new Color Splash ombre ink.

I coloured the flowers using copics, then removed the mask and stamped the greeting in the same ink. I prefer to use Lawn Fawn Black Licorice ink for greetings and sentiments, but I wanted the blacks to match.

Finally, I adhered the panel onto the front of an A2 card base.

I hope you like today's card and are inspired to create something of your own.

This card is for:
Inspired by Anita Bowden's Card



Update:
This card was selected for Honorable Mention!!!

Thank you so much to everyone who voted for my card! I can't even begin to tell you how much it means to me.

    Beautiful coloring, and the addition of that bloom in the lower right corner really makes this card pop in the Muse gallery.
