I had hoped not to be late with any of the Colour INKspiration projects but in the lead up to the new catalogue launch I definitely got behind with a few of my crafting goals. Back on track from today!
The image that inspires this colour palette is so dramatic.
I am featuring the Happiness Abounds Bundle this week.
This card started with me stamping the four floral images using Versamark and black embossing powder on Shimmery White cardstock.
After heat embossing the powder, the flowers were ‘water’ coloured using the colour refills and Clear Wink of Stella. A drop or two of each of the four colours were dropped on a large acrylic block. Then I squeezed out some of the glitter liquid from the brush and made a light colour mix and painted each of the flowers. Each colour was then made slightly darker and I was able to add depth to each flower. Then the flowers were cut using the coordinating Blossoming Happiness Dies.
The new Cascading Ruffles 3D Embossing Folder was perfect for the layer I added to the Basic Black card base.
The next step was to position the flowers to create a gorgeous bouquet. Some were attached directly to the embossed layer while others were popped up using Stampin’ Dimensionals.
The birthday greeting was heat embossed with white embossing powder. Both the black and white embossing powders are from the Basics Stampin’ Emboss™ Powders pack.
The torn spiral paper, at the top and bottom of the greeting layer, is made using one of the dies from the Blossoming Happiness Dies.
Finally I added some Iridescent Rhinestone Basic Jewels to the card front and a triple bow of White Glittered Organdy Ribbon.
The end result is a very glittery card.
Later today, I will have my weekend offering of #simplestamping and Step It Up to share.
Until then, happy stamping.
