Lots of Love

 

I am having some serious issues with Blogger today! I don't know about everyone else but I do not like the changes they have made...arrrgh!!

Anyway, back on topic, my card has been in the making for a couple of weeks as it wasn't coming together for me. I created my background with DO's, die cut my circle frame and adhered it to the my panel. I then used my Misti to stamp half of my sentiment and then die cut the rest of my sentiment 3 times and glued them together for height. This is the first time that I have done that and I must admit I like the effect.

Floral Greys

For today's card, I stamped my floral images and then heat embossed with white EP. I watercoloured my flowers & leaves with DO's : Hickory Smoke, Mowed Lawn and Vintage Photo. Die cut my 'happy' and cut it down to fit then stamped my 'birthday', coloured and pop dotted it onto the card front and added some sequins to finish off.

Fabulous Day

My last creation for the day...I cased a card created by Yana Smakula see here. I am not a very good colourist so thought I would give this ago as it didn't need blending. I'm quite pleased with the end result and really like the colours.

Watercolour Florals

I created todays background with textured Watercolour Card, DO's Peeled Paint & Fossilised Amber and gave it a watercolour wash. I then stamped my flowers and added a bit more Fossilised Amber wash to the petals. Stamped part of my sentiment on the background, then pop dotted the rest on some white card and added sequins for some added interest. I layered the image onto a similar green card and pop dotted it to the base to complete.

Yellow Florals

I saw Erin Thompson's card online and just had to case it, check it out here. I loved the monochromatic background and then the lovely pop of colour in the flowers. I love yellow but it's not a colour I use a lot which made me have a go at making this card. Watercoloured my background with DO's then coloured my flowers with an assortment of yellow Copics.

Birthday Wishes

I started this card a few days ago but I wasn't happy with how it was going so I walked away and came back to it with fresh eyes. I had stencilled the background with just blue but I added some yellow which I felt gave it a bit more interest. I coloured my flowers and leaves with Copics then added a sentiment and some tiny stars and mounted it on black card to finish it off.
