Hey crafty friends! It’s that time of the year again where I’m inspired to reach into my stash and start using my stamps that “I had to have but never used”. I seem to make this resolution every year and, after a few months, I stray back to my old buying habits. But every year I try and even though I won’t make it an entire year, I still consider any time I am using from my stash, a win!
Today I am sharing a card featuring Hero Arts’ Togetherness Flower Bouquet stamp. This is a stunning large floral that is the center of attention of my birthday card. I stamped the image using brown Copic friendly ink, then colored it with Copic Markers.
Copic Color Combinations
Pink: RV55, RV52, RV00, RV19
Peach: R12, R11, R00, YR02
Yellow: Y18, Y38
Leaves: YG01, YG05, YG17
Rose Leaves: G09, G05, G02, G12
On a white panel, I ink blended the background using Peacock Feathers Distress Oxide ink and a little Fossilized Amber Distress Oxide ink in the center. Then, I stamped the background with Peacock Feathers using Pearl Strings Bold Prints Cling stamp. I set the entire background with clear embossing powder.
To finish, I used a circle die-cut to center the floral image with foam adhesive. Next, I added the sentiment which I stamped and white heat embossed. And lastly, I added a few clear drops using liquid adhesive.
I hope you enjoyed this card, as always thank you so much for stopping by until next time….sprinkle a little creativity on your day!
