Happy Saturday! Welcome back.
Today I am playing with the following challenges: Try Stampin’ On Tuesdays (#595) for Sketch and Option Detail; Color Throwdown (#732) for the chosen Colors; Inspire Create (#137) and Global Design Project (#383) for the Spring Theme; Shopping Our Stash (#491) for adding Flowers; and sharing with Jan’s Digi Stamps (February) Anything Goes.
Here is the result:
Steps:
- Card Base: (8½” x 5½” scored at 4¼”) Calypso Coral cardstock.
- Background Panel: (4” x 5¼”) Shimmery White cardstock.
- Using all three, Wide, Medium and Fine-Tipped Water Painter Brushes, diagonal Stripes were water-colored with Daffodil Delight, Calypso Coral, Balmy Blue and Night of Navy drops of Classic Stampin’ Ink™ Refills in a Paint Palette.
- Accent Panel: (3” x 3¾”) Night of Navy cardstock shortened to show more of the painted stripes.
- Focal Panel: (2½” x 2¾”) Basic White cardstock.
- Bottom Cross Strip: (3½” x 1¼”) Balmy Blue cardstock.
- Sentiment Strip: (3¾” x ⅝”) Night of Navy cardstock scrap.
- The sentiment, You’re the Nicest, from the Honeybee Home stamp set was stamped with Versamark ink and heat-set with White Embossing Powder.
- Focal Image – Floral Cascade: Daffodil Delight and Calypso Coral cardstock scraps.
- The Large and Small Flowers were die-cut with the Floral dies from the Queen Bee Dies set.
All elements were adhered to the card base to resemble the sketch. The Flowers were arranged in a cascading pattern with some popped up with Dimensionals. Champagne Rhinestone Basic Jewels were added to the larger Flowers and two Brushed Brass Butterflies were also added.
Such a fresh Spring Floral card.
Thank you for spending some of your time with me today. Cheers, Jolanda!
