Hello.
Meet today's card.
Nature is coming alive and I wanted to make a very clean and fresh card and here's what I came up with.
I began by die cutting a circle from lightweight paper and used the negative part as a mask for the circle. I sponged on green Distress ink on the bottom and blue at the top.
Leaving the mask in place, I put the piece inside my Misti and stamped a portion of the flowers at at bottom using black ink. I removed the mask and stamped the whole flower again just to the side of the circle.
The sentiment is from a new PB set called Happy Times.
I removed the mask and doodled in a border using a fine line black marker.
