Hello there,
Are you making Christmas cards yet? I am. Today's card features LDRS Layered Poinsettia Die Set. The background panel is one of many left over pieces that didn't quite work for the originally intended project, but it works here.
I first painted a watercolor panel in crimson with various values, and another in green. After they dried I sprayed with mica stain. This gives that wonderful shimmer. I then die cut both flower and leaves, applied archival Acorn ink to some area to make them darker; assemble and adhere to my prepared card front. And added the sentiment strip.
Challenges:
Happy Little Stampers October Christmas Challenge - Anything Goes (optional Frame)
Supplies:
Versamark Watermark Ink
Wow Metallic Gold Rich Super Fine Embossing Powder
Thanks for coming over to my blog. Have a great day!
