Hi crafty friends!
I am up on the Alex Syberia Designs blog today featuring a card I designed using the beautiful stamp set called Happy Blooms. I love this set! I think I love it because of the unique lines through the images. This type of stamp set is pretty cool to use just in black and white. Though, I decided to colour mine.
There’s quite a few products used on this card. In thee background you will see the Fancy Cover Die. I then added a die cut panel and stamped the groups of dots from the Happy Blooms stamp set in light grey, just to give the white panel some interest.
After stamping the floral images, I coloured them with my Copics. The easiest colouring ever because the Happy Blooms stamp set has all the interest done for you. The colours I used were BG 13, BG18, Y26 & Y28.
I stamped the floral images on the card panel but, I then die cut the the centre florals and raised just those. This really gave a cool added dimension.
Let’s talk sentiments! I used rainbow foil with the Sending Love from the For Her Sentiments Hot Foil Plate. It was this that enabled me to choose what colours I wanted the florals to be. Did you notice how similar they are?
Underneath I then added that lovely sentiment strip from the Expressing Gratitude stamp set.
To finish, I added a bit of bling. Not too much but decided on picking up the teal just to accent the design.
I have to say, that I think the teal and gold effect of the Copics really made the Happy Blooms set pop on that white backdrop.
Whatever you are doing today friends I hope it brings you some joy.
Until next time….
Cheryl
