Hi there everyone. We have a brand new challenge happening at STAMPlorations.
We want you to use
I have been embossing more than ever lately. I think my new Distress Inks have something to do with it. The two work so well together.
Here is my DT card -
I have used two stamp sets here. Bloom Sketches: Daisy 2 and Bloom Sketches: Sunflower Artsy
I tried to make my daisies more like sunflowers and to compensate I used the sentiment from the Sunflower set :)
First, I die cut a circle and then stamped and masked my three daisies. Then keeping the mask in place, I sponged Broken China distress ink for the background.
To colour the flowers, I used a cotton bud with Mustard Seed and Gathered Twigs Distress Inks.
The sentiment was embossed too.
I used the Fusion Challenge as inspiration for this card - I once again, went with both the photo and the sketch.
I would also like to enter my card into these fabulous challenges -
You can find the new challenge for STAMPlorations HERE
Thanks so much for looking xx
Great card Kylie, I love how you coloured the blooms in sunflower colours! Love that embossing folder panel what sort is it? :)
ReplyDeleteWonderful - that embossing folder looks like a basket - fitting those sunflowers perfectly!
ReplyDeleteThis is such an amazing and beautiful card, Kylie! It made me smile the first time I saw it on our DT blog -- the colors and textures you created all work so beautifully together! I gotta try using cotton buds for better control at coloring with DI...thanks for the awesome tip!
