I had so much fun with the Fabulous Flora release! The release features gorgeous floral embossing folders and layering stencils.

Now over to my cards.

Hello - You fill my heart

Featuring:

Blobby Roses Stencil & Die Bundle

Fancy Hello Die

Sentiment Strips 3 Stamp Set

This card is unlike my usual card making style but I LOVE how it turned out! I started by using the Blobby Roses layering stencil to create an A2 sized panel. I then used the coordinating die to cut out the roses. I played around with the die cuts to come up with a layout I was happy with and added the fancy hello die-cut and sentiment strip to finish the card.

Sending a Happy Hello

Featuring:

Ixora 3D Embossing Folder

Waterbrush Hello Die

Sentiment Strips 3 Stamp Set

Coloring on embossed patterns is so much fun! I created this card by embossing with the Ixora 3D embossing folder onto watercolor cardstock and watercoloring the embossed design. I used liquid watercolors and added details with watercolor markers. I added white splatters to bring it all together. I finished the card with a die-cut hello and sentiment strip.

Yay, Happy Birthday!

Featuring:

Woods Rose 3D Embossing Folder

Fancy Yay Die

Sentiment Strips 3 Stamp Set

This card took me a few tries to get it right, though I'm still not sure if I like it a lot. I wanted to create a vintage effect in reds and golds. I started by embossing the Woods Rose pattern onto watercolor card stock and watercoloring in shades of red. I then spritzed the panel with water and let the colors spread. Once dry I added some more color to the flower petals. I then rubbed versamark watermark ink on the raised parts of the design and heat embossed with gold embossing powder. To create a vintage look, I distress the edges and inked them with red ink.
