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.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">I am adding my card to the following challenges...</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><a href="https://craftrocketchallenges.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Craft Rocket Challenge : #111 Birthday</a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><a href="https://creativeartistemixedmedia.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Creative Artiste Mixed Media Challenge : #101 Anything Goes Mixed Media</a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><a href="https://seizethebirthday.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Seize the Birthday : #277 Splatter</a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><a href="https://scscards.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Simply Clean & Simple : February CAS with Pink</a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">As always, thanks for popping in...</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh3Qwzvs_GRGId2iBTPcwtk7V0lTocBd86bGZmHfTDNOPpLouQOETLdyJwo2GhoUoo4WMJrcLsl-4CYHREzxzDAYUzHWUBmrEam1fpqVkLCMjauJ9FMgZI-z58ADIsX8vUHMI5QvYEgMfnM9wkTEIwXkmvATkwv1QK-Hr44D8Ifb9PGLS4u9-TUIPfd75DL/s95/Vikki's%20Signature.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="64" data-original-width="95" height="64" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh3Qwzvs_GRGId2iBTPcwtk7V0lTocBd86bGZmHfTDNOPpLouQOETLdyJwo2GhoUoo4WMJrcLsl-4CYHREzxzDAYUzHWUBmrEam1fpqVkLCMjauJ9FMgZI-z58ADIsX8vUHMI5QvYEgMfnM9wkTEIwXkmvATkwv1QK-Hr44D8Ifb9PGLS4u9-TUIPfd75DL/s1600/Vikki's%20Signature.png" width="95" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><br />Vikkihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05567094793990318801noreply@blogger.com5tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5343451193029793240.post-82944686318173738222024-02-04T15:11:00.004+10:002024-02-04T15:11:51.306+10:00Arty Floral Birthday <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiy6a5Cw-EwfJjQEplaos5gP07iyCIBqLtMlyj8R0GBf2DXTmFC8DmjQ9zZbqWSJ-QBR9s81aG9Yj2lQu0_qgGDU8948UxYA6BezasCJJtCoRmUwwtRSEpcCiRQjFR2Cn8TVMCGGthwzVdFDUqLbvWiVJUdZUuE4Wag73Nq5yYv3SqZ0Lk0h4AIwpRvL8p_/s4608/Estelle%20'24.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="4608" data-original-width="3456" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiy6a5Cw-EwfJjQEplaos5gP07iyCIBqLtMlyj8R0GBf2DXTmFC8DmjQ9zZbqWSJ-QBR9s81aG9Yj2lQu0_qgGDU8948UxYA6BezasCJJtCoRmUwwtRSEpcCiRQjFR2Cn8TVMCGGthwzVdFDUqLbvWiVJUdZUuE4Wag73Nq5yYv3SqZ0Lk0h4AIwpRvL8p_/s320/Estelle%20'24.jpg" width="240" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Another card inspired by <a href="https://www.youtube.com/@tracyevans56" target="_blank">Tracy Evans - Snippet #36.</a> I am really enjoying casing her Snippets and then putting my spin on the design.

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.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">I am adding my card to the following challenges...</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><a href="https://allsortschallenge.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Allsorts Challenge Blog : Week 766 - Bingo</a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><a href="https://creativeartistemixedmedia.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Creative Artiste Mixed Media Challenge : #101 Anything Mixed Media</a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><a href="https://disdigidesignschallenge.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Digi Design Challenge Blog : Feb - 3 colours - 1 must be Red</a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Thanks for popping in</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiyJKAms4lfBHCTd03f-FmlIFaRzPqT1MjGcU6jCJFn8Jz1EQxOy5ya-tOba3IBdj993Z_RJ6ztD0VZxnE6AaGnzeE13O-p5oPd5RWFBUAznniYCqYuypUgKyiPY0GqgShykDfqFVHTvOg6kml5qPgb0XlbzMWT6jK4lU4HZLbmHacj3cyAvH-EsBTN463p/s95/Vikki's%20Signature.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="64" data-original-width="95" height="64" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiyJKAms4lfBHCTd03f-FmlIFaRzPqT1MjGcU6jCJFn8Jz1EQxOy5ya-tOba3IBdj993Z_RJ6ztD0VZxnE6AaGnzeE13O-p5oPd5RWFBUAznniYCqYuypUgKyiPY0GqgShykDfqFVHTvOg6kml5qPgb0XlbzMWT6jK4lU4HZLbmHacj3cyAvH-EsBTN463p/s1600/Vikki's%20Signature.png" width="95" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><br />

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.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">I am adding my card to the following challenges...</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><a href="https://craftycatzweeklychallenge.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Crafty Catz : #663 Anything Goes - Twist : no designer paper</a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><a href="https://fabnfunkychallenges.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Fab 'n' Funky : #587 Stamp It</a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><a href="https://ilovepromarkers.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">I Love ProMarkers : $550 Anything Goes - with Animals</a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><a href="https://stencilfun.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Stencil Fun : January</a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Thanks for stopping by</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh07uC7GjL-wOE8qg0fN3FZZJnjcfqnlfUkHkw92A8oNflRMVaCs8RmNwRe0dgYFNxK4Kk81ElAjpr0fXu9X4vxTp7Cm9HNbsuAWqgoGc3L865yBhbulZrdfi2-i6YQSetDFiSjsmDqlPTrRU3WnP_QwBqOfAneanhvtt5Z0WRMzXAOsBYIRjLHCcNWMzB7/s95/Vikki's%20Signature.png" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="64" data-original-width="95" height="64" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh07uC7GjL-wOE8qg0fN3FZZJnjcfqnlfUkHkw92A8oNflRMVaCs8RmNwRe0dgYFNxK4Kk81ElAjpr0fXu9X4vxTp7Cm9HNbsuAWqgoGc3L865yBhbulZrdfi2-i6YQSetDFiSjsmDqlPTrRU3WnP_QwBqOfAneanhvtt5Z0WRMzXAOsBYIRjLHCcNWMzB7/s1600/Vikki's%20Signature.png" width="95" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><br />

It is a very soft background so I think I will have to add some more ink next time to bring out some more colour. Once the background was dry, I splattered some ink, then I stamped my image, coloured the outlined flowers with Copics, added some 'glass glue' and glitter for dimension and sparkle and layered it onto matching coloured card stock. I then pop dotted my panel and added my sentiment to finish it all off.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">I am adding my card to the following challenges</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://addictedtostamps-challenge.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Addicted to Stamps & More : #438 Birthdays</a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://kraftychickschallenge.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Krafty Chicks Challenge : #629 CAS</a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://trystampinontuesday.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Try Stampin' On Tuesday : #573 Layou</a>t</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Thanks for stopping by</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh6Ifu5ODf-UNLWtsZbfj973zrCMq8Tehfxj9ypfNSLkZcPsB1pPlgmBNujx1-AxCkN4xha-jy0xcgdqGPxNnU2cjOqFMnVOsRjypZVCK-Irn41hhgAC1QeZfMwpxbx01Rc7g7L1xrLrb2Iix7GtBkDnlb88ZchYger_lAgbscT_BOt72nDmMwUsryodw/s95/Vikki's%20Signature.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="64" data-original-width="95" height="64" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh6Ifu5ODf-UNLWtsZbfj973zrCMq8Tehfxj9ypfNSLkZcPsB1pPlgmBNujx1-AxCkN4xha-jy0xcgdqGPxNnU2cjOqFMnVOsRjypZVCK-Irn41hhgAC1QeZfMwpxbx01Rc7g7L1xrLrb2Iix7GtBkDnlb88ZchYger_lAgbscT_BOt72nDmMwUsryodw/s1600/Vikki's%20Signature.png" width="95" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEhS637Cy3owNx5W_7HlyAb41Fj25dfLpkBspaFaC404QxS9I9Ruoc2IrXcCHf8y9MC0UO_FgbEeIUMarEMI2VNBM5p6FVC92poX8Ow9uehuf65QumJYSqXNsvt3HbLf_usSJnmPyAGP5tti02BINHgZp5xcg4PYKblw-0SIEEQdEq1-VIIm_jHZ30BaMQ" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img data-original-height="320" data-original-width="244" height="200" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEhS637Cy3owNx5W_7HlyAb41Fj25dfLpkBspaFaC404QxS9I9Ruoc2IrXcCHf8y9MC0UO_FgbEeIUMarEMI2VNBM5p6FVC92poX8Ow9uehuf65QumJYSqXNsvt3HbLf_usSJnmPyAGP5tti02BINHgZp5xcg4PYKblw-0SIEEQdEq1-VIIm_jHZ30BaMQ=w153-h200" width="153" /></a></div><br /><br /></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><br />
