On to the challenge! I am challenging you to make a CLEAN AND SIMPLE card, project or scrapbook page using FLOWERS. See, easy peasy!! LOL!!!
Here a couple samples to get your creative juices flowing!!! The first card was made by my FANTASTIC guest, Stephanie Kraft! I LOVE Stephanie's work and am honored to have her as my guest today!!!
Stephanie used Verve's Love's Flower and Wonderful Wishes (Wonderful Wishes is retired but there is a set called Wishing You that is an update version of Wonderful Wishes that you might be interested in). Stephanie embossed the flower using black embossing powder and layered it. It is difficult to see in the picture but she also embossed (using white embossing powder) the flower on the white background. The colors are so rich and her stitching is perfect!!! I can't seem to get my stitching to be straight like that. I am SURE my sewing machine has a defect!!! LOLOL!!!! Such a gorgeous card Stephanie and THANK YOU for being my guest!!!!Here is my card ~
For my card, I stamped the background of the Kraft panel using the polka dot stamp from the Bountiful Backgrounds set and Versamark ink. I then stamped the DARLING flowers from the new Verve set called Let it Shine using Snow White ink (PTI). I colored portions of the flower using my Blue Frost Copic Marker, added some blue Swarovski crystals and OF COURSE I added some clear glitter to the colored portions of the flower using my Copic Spica glitter pen.Here is a closer look at the flowers ~
Aren't they beautiful?!?! Julee always adds such beautiful details to her images. Better get your wish list started, you are going to LOVE these stamps!!!!To follow are the challenge details!
