Painted Floral

 

For today's card, I started by smooching some colour onto my panel. I knew what stamp I was using, so I lightly drew some circles in the area of where the image would be and then smooched the colours to suit the stamp. I then added a touch of colour where needed and dried the panel off. Once dry, I added some white splatters to give it a bit of interest and then added my sentiment before layering it all together.

Arty Floral Birthday

Another card inspired by Tracy Evans - Snippet #36. I am really enjoying casing her Snippets and then putting my spin on the design. If it's a snippet that I really like, I am then making another to create a card. The background image was stamped with DO's Candied Apple, Spiced Marmalade & Lumberjack Plaid. Some small text and shapes were added to the background and then the flower was restamped and fussy cut then popped up for some dimension with a leafy extra added. Once I was happy with it all, I added some splatter, a sentiment and then mounted it on black card.

Baby Girl

I don't make many baby cards but when I do, I gravitate towards this little elephant. Today's card was made for a family member who is expecting their first child. They know it's a girl which is why I went with the pink theme. I created the background by smooching some DO Picked Raspberry which I dried off and then swiped a stencil with the same colour, spritzed the stencil with water and applied some of it to the base. I didn't want the whole card to have the stenciled image, so I just placed a part of it in the center of the card. I then stamped my image, water coloured it withe DO's, fussy cut it and mounted it to the panel. I did the same for the sentiment which I kept simple but coloured with Copics and then I layered the card to complete.
