Hello and welcome. Today I am taking part in a blog hop to showcase our wonderful new catalogue. If you know me at all, you will know that I love flowers. This catalogue has so much floral gorgeousness in it. One floral stamp set that immediately caught my attention was the Bloom & Grow set. So I just had to use it for todays project.
This card was actually inspired by a journal cover that I saw at the shops. It was a beautiful shade of pink with stripes and floral sprays on two corners. So I used that to base my card on. To create the stripes I used an old but favourite technique of using masking tape and ink. I used my new favourite colour Rococo Rose but it turned out a bit darker than I wanted, so I added a layer of vellum to soften it and tone it down. It helped the floral sprays stand out a bit more as well.
These gorgeous floral sprays were coloured with a blender pen. I simply squished an acrylic block into the stamp pad, then picked up the ink off the block with a blender fun. So easy and so much fun.
Now that you have seen what I created, it is time to hop over to Stacey's page to see her project.

DeleteThe colouring is stunning and I can't believe this is done with blender pens. You have inspired me to try colouring as I am still learning blends so blender pens feel a bit easier to control. Thank you
