Here's a card inspired by my meteorological musings and a couple of stamps from the Seasonal Fragments A4 sheet by Chocolate Baroque.
I started by heat embossing the water droplets with WOW Bright White EP, followed by blending Tim Holtz Distress Inks to create the background. For the sky: Chipped Sapphire, Salty Ocean and Tumbled Glass. For the ground: Bundled Sage, Crushed Olive and Scattered Straw. Next came the sentiment from Loving Sentiments A5 sheet, stamped with VersaFine Deep Lagoon. I added blobs of Ranger Glossy Accents on the rain drops for some dimension.
To fill the bottom half of the card, I stamped the little flowers from Seasonal Fragments with VersaFine Crimson Red and coloured it with Faber-Castell Polychromos. I added the flower to hide a smudge. (Not ink but half eaten Kit-Kat. Urgh! Hate it when that happens! Such a waste of good chocolate!) Final touch: a few tiny pink bling on the flowers.

ReplyDeleteOh I did that with chocolate also-plop! right on the card. I still used my finger to get the last morsel but I had to cover it up as well. I love the background and still have not used these distress inks. I have to figure out how you do this because it looks so wonderful. I love the flowers-like a nice heaven:)
