I am back with another new creation - inspired by a card I found HERE and just loved!
I started with the puff flower from Beautiful Botanicals and stamped it in Orange on Vanilla CS. I then took a colored pencil and went over the stems of the flowers with a brown pencil.
Then I inked the top of the image with a sponge dauber and Ocean ink - I will try a different blue next time - maybe Sky or Bermuda? Next I stamped the script background with French Roast onto Orange CS - and inked the edge slightly with French Roast and a Sponge Dauber. I tied a piece of twine around the bottom edge - this was twine I had on hand and not a|s twine. Then I layered it all onto a French Roast Note Card - adding 3D Foam Adhesive to the top layer. I added the sentiment on a strip of Vanilla CS in French Roast with 3D Foam Adhesives also.
I really like the color combo and soft sponging of color.
If you are interested in any of the items used on this card - you can shop my secure online shopping site anytime! And don't forget that a*muse studio is having a starter kit special - for just $99 you can get started as a creative consultant! It is a great deal - and you get some really cool stuff!
So I had a few rough days over the last 2 weeks - feeling pretty green and icky tired. But I think I have kicked it - and am back in my studio! Yeah! I only have 4 more treatments to go and I will be FINISHED! Whoop Whoop! I have so appreciated all the prayers and kind thoughts going out for me and my family - and they have been working miracles!
Wow! Talk about a knock your socks off kind of card! I've never tried coloring over ink and this is absolutely perfect. PS. Like it better than the inspiration piece...fantastic!!
