Today's card is for this week's Freshly Made Sketches. Here is my inspiration ...
Stamps: Asian Artistry
Paper: Summer Starfruit, White, Elegant Eggplant, Watercolor
Ink: Memento Black, SU markers--Elegant Eggplant, Old Olive, Summer Starfruit, Baja Breeze
Accessories: CB textile texture embossing folder, blender pen, Baja Breeze ribbon, Elegant Eggplant button, twine, Sakura glitter pen, dimensionals
All products are Stampin' Up unless otherwise noted.
To color the flower, I first added ink with the marker and then blended it out with the blender pen. I've seen videos on this technique and wanted to try it. It was fun but I still need a lot of practice! This card actually looks a lot prettier in person.
My daughter and her boyfriend, Patrick, were playing cards while I was taking a picture of my card so I had to snap one of them. I told them I was going to post it on my blog and this is their first reaction ...
Take two ... showing off their smiles now ...
Thanks for stopping by and as always ...
Have a great day,
Pam~
