Welcome back to my blog and Magenta Super Saturday. I’ve had to make several sympathy cards in
the last month, so I thought I’d share this one with you today.
I think any sentiment would work on this card
and the technique is so much fun. You color
the flowers on one stamped image, then cut them out to adhere to a second
stamped image. You can also see my card on the Magenta blog here.
To begin I used my MISTI to stamp the floral image. I stamped it two times on pieces of 4” x 5 ¼”
white cardstock. Using a blender brush
and some Distress Shaded Lilac ink, I lightly blended color over the flowers on
both pieces. It’s okay to go outside the
lines on the one that will be your finished image as it adds some shading on
the card, just use a light hand. Next, I
used colored pencils to color the flowers on the one piece. On the other piece I used colored pencils on
the leaves and berries. I returned both
pieces to my MISTI and restamped them with VersaMark ink, then embossed with
white embossing powder.
Next, I used my MISTI to stamp the sentiment in with
VersaFine Majestic Blue ink on the piece with the colored leaves. I adhered the panel to a piece of dark blue
cardstock, then adhered them to an A2 card.
Finally, I cut out the flowers I had colored and used a few foam dots to
adhere them on top of the flowers on card front. I added a few gems for an additional bit of
interest.
Thanks for visiting my blog today.
