Hello & Welcome. Before I get to my card today, I want to say thank you to Claire for choosing my card for last weeks challenge as A Cut Above winner. You can see that card here.
Here is the card that I created for this challenge.
This is a brand new (to me) stamp set and stencil - I received it as a gift for Mother's Day so this will also be going into NBUS#62
Card Base: Lost Lagoon, Scallop Layer: Highland Heather.
Inks: Highland Heather, Fresh Freesia and I added Bubble Bath. The image and sentiment were stamped with Memento Tuxedo black ink on Basic White card stock. I used ink pads and blending brushes for the stenciled portion and a water brush and ink pads to color the flower. Stamps and Stencil (Tim Holtz Mixed Media)
Other items used: Dies (Unity - Scallops and Rectangles)
Wink of Stella brush for the center of the flower. Enamel dots (Paper Studio) and foam tape.
This shows some of the shimmer from the Wink of Stella brush.
Thanks for stopping by. I appreciate your visits and comments.
Have a great day.
