Happy Wednesday everyone! I hope you have had a wonderful festive break and a fantastic beginning to 2015.
It is nice to be back again! I am so honoured to be a part of The Card Concept as a permanent member. Thanks Lesley, for getting me involved in this Oh-So-Talented team!! From now on, I will share my card with you in the Mixed Media category :D
Wow! One year of challenges already! This week we are hoping this picture inspires you to celebrate our One Year Anniversary with us! Feel free to use any of the styles of our team or better yet, share you own style by combining one or more of the styles. We want you to have fun and make a card in a style that you feel good about!
Here is what I came up with:
Whenever I see the beautiful flowers, I can’t resist using watercolour mediums lol!
My card today, I used Hero Arts Watercolor Wheel, Distress inks as my watercolour mediums. I positioned all I want to use stamps from Wplus9 Coming Up Roses Stamps on the watercolour paper first. I then stamped using water based distress inks and coloured them using watercolour brush. For sentiment, I stamped ‘HAPPY BIRTHDAY’ among Altenew Label Love Stamps using VersaFine Pigment ink Onyx Black and then heat embossed it in clear. White threads under the sentiment banner to finish the card.
Let’s see what the rest of the design team has come up with:

Look at this card! Wow!! It is really stunning. I seriously couldn’t take my eyes off of it when I saw Julie’s black outlined flower and her details!
I chose outline flower stamps from IndigoBlu Live Laugh Stamp set and stamped on the white cardstock using Memento Tuxedo Black. I then die cut word ‘CELEBRATE’ from Little B Block Out Die Set instead of stamped sentiment for looking more bold. I added yellow & black watercolour splatters onto the stamped cardstock and affixed several clear rhinestones to finish it off.
I followed Shari’s dimensional paper piecing technique in the OCC Stretch Your Stamps 2 class and I am so happy to have this beautiful Clearly Besotted Fresh Flowers Stamp Set. Yay!! I especially liked the burnishing technique Shari used to make the petals more realistic.
I will send this card to my mother-in-low. She really likes flowers and would happy with it surely :D
