I printed out a couple of the images and arranged them around the sentiment. Since this card is all about those beautiful blooms, I did not fuss with the embellishments... not much, anyway! Just a few blobs of red Liquid Pearls. I also used Lawn Fawn Stitched Square dies for cutting and layering the background.
I coloured the images with Faber-Castell Polychromos and a few mandatory swishes with Clear Wink of Stella for some subtle sparkle. For the sentiment, I did some die-cutting with Spellbinders Classic Oval and Scalloped Oval dies, inked the edges with Peeled Paint Distress Ink and propped up the whole thing with some foam tape. Then I tucked in the remaining blooms under it.

ReplyDeleteOh, I so understand your comments about lack of time - when I was blogging on my old blog a couple of years ago I was on a lot of design teams at the one time and it takes over your life, doesn't it? I'm trying to be a bit more sensible this time around ;-) I do hope your life balances out soon Asha - don't burn yourself out with stressing about commenting and getting DT stuff done.
Big hugs,
Sharon xx

You take as much time as your need to re-sort, Asha. We're not going anywhere - and don't worry about catching up on commenting. Start fresh whenever you're ready; we all know life runs its course. Your flowers are incredibly lovely, brought to vibrant life with your magical polychromos colouring. Love that you've given them starring roles on your card...
