Morning.
I send more birthday cards then any other type of card, so it's great to have some extras on hand and ready to go. I love sending them and hopefully they will bring a smile to the person receiving it.
So, let's get to today's card.
I began by creating a piece of marbled paper using alcohol inks. It is so super easy and fun and you get different results every time. To see a link to the tutorial go here:
I stamped the large hydrangea flower (one of my favourite stamps) onto the marbled paper using Memento black ink. I then watercolored it using Brushos mixed with a drop of water. It is so fun to paint with and you can easily get such great shading using them.
Last, I stamped the sentiment from Verses in the bottom corner using black Memento ink again.
Adding my card to these challenge:
Seize the Birthday- FLORALS
Addicted to Stamps and More- CLEAN AND SIMPLE
Craft Stamper- SPRING FLOWERS
Thanks so very much for coming by and taking a look.
Hope you have a great weekend. Looking forward to lots of sunshine and warmer temps this weekend!!
Supplies: stamps- Verses, Stampendous/ alcohol inks/ Memento bl/ Brushos/ paint brush
