Hello there 

I have had an amazing four days at an art retreat 

with the most amazing ladies,

and as a result I am posting a bit later in the day than normal


Today my card features the gorgeous Hand Picked Floral Bouquet stamp from

Paper Rose Studio.




As with previous cards I have used  Copic markers to colour my vase of flowers and 
layered that onto embossed textured background




I love clean and simple images on a white background. 

The yellow flowers really pop on the white.


I have used copic colours that look like copper to colour in the vase.

Supplies Used:

19078 Sketchy Handpicked Bouquet Stamp

Zen Blooms in pink tones

 


Hello There,

Can you believe that we are now into July and halfway through the year.

It's my turn to share another project and I have used the new Zen Blooms 

slimline die from Paper Rose Studio  to create these cards.







I love that with one die cut out you can create two different cards. 







To create these cards I have cut out a piece of cardstock the size of my card base.
I have then used four pink coloured inks to create a blended background from light to dark.
I used a blending brush to apply the colour to my base card as it helps to create a smooth blend without lines. It does take some time to get the colour down but totally worth the effort.
 



Once I was totally happy with the blend I taped my die down on my base and ran it through
my Bigshot, removing it really carefully so all the cut pieces stay in place.
I then used a piece of Press n Seal to hold it all together.

Have a look at you tube as there are many videos that show you some great techniques
using Press n Seal with die cuts.



This card uses the die cut piece layered onto a white background. I love how gorgeous 
the flowers look going from dark to light. 




This card is the background left behind. I have cut out the flowers in white as well.
 This creates a frame that all the blended cut outs have been pieced back into place.
This is where the Press N Seal helps to keep them in position allowing easy positioning.





Supplies used: 
21195 Slimline Zen Blooms Die
18288 Just a Note layered word die
19023 Black & White Sentiment Sheets
18454 Blending Brush


Altenew Inks:
Magenta
Fuchsia
Baby Pink
Frosty Pink

Thanks for stopping by I will be back with another project on the 14th


Until next time
