Altenew PAINTED FLOWERS

Hello folks,
One month ago, one stamp set just knocked me out!! That was Altenew PAINTED FLOWERS stamp set! I don’t know why I couldn’t find it before?!?! @@

Here is what I came up with:
20140804-01
When I made this floral background card, I was inspired by Iwona (Chupa)’s fabulous custom made floral papers. I love all of her cards :D

For my custom-made floral background, I stamped flowers onto the watercolour paper using distress inks (mostly using fired brick). Originally I wanted to do watercolouring but, no needed to be. Because it looks like watercolour flowers just using ink pads. Amazing!!! I then covered the panel with a layer of vellum paper and then I stamped ‘Happy Birthday’ sentiment and flower on a separate piece of white cardstock, cut them out and popped them up with foam dots for dimension.

Blooming Today!

Hello folks,
Today, I made my friend’s birthday card with gorgeous Blooming stamps by Clearly Besotted. I love flower stamps very much indeed!!

Here is my card:
20140630-01
I like yellow and grey colour combinations. It looks so modern, clean, and bold :D

I stamped roses, leaves, and several different sized circles as background patterns in VersaFine Pigment Ink Smokey Grey at first and stamped one rose in yellow stand out in other petals. I then chose ‘Hello beautiful’ sentiment from Simon Says Stamp Summer Garden and heat embossed it with Ranger Embossing Powder Seaform White. At the bottom of the card, I sponged white cardstock in Distress Ink Mustard Seed and added water splatters for fun!

20140630-02Oh! one more main part of my supplies! I used ‘Zig Wink of Stella Glitter Brush Clear’ on the yellow rose petals.

BUTTERFLY DIE CARD

Hello folks,
I was so impressed Laura Sterckx’s watercolour card at Bonus Day of Watercolor Card Makers! It is stunning!!! So, I chose ‘Simon Says Stamp LEANNA BUTTERFLY Die’ as a focal point of my friend’s birthday card.

Personally, I love butterfly embellishment. The Butterfly symbolises the Covenant in Christianity.

Here it is:

I blended several Distress inks using distress tool and added Shimmer Spritz Sparkle. Making my own embossing pattern with scoring board is so clever!! Isn’t it wonderful technique? LOL!!
