My Video Tutorial today shows you how I created these cards. The shimmer on them is beautiful. I couldn't catch it in the photos, but you can see it in the Video :o)
I used the lovely new Forever Blossoms stamp set. I do find it hard to resist floral stamp sets and there are some stunning ones in the new catalogue, but this is the one I chose to buy this time.
I stamped the image using Smoky Slate ink. I didn't want the outline to be dark or harsh and love how this one turned out.
The images are watercoloured using the ink pads and an Aqua Painter. For this first one I used Balmy Blue for the flowers and Pear Pizzazz for the leaves.
This is the card created in the Video. Calypso Carol is the main colour and I used Pear Pizzazz again for the leaves.
The background paper comes from the coordinating Parisian Blossoms Specialty 12" Designer Series paper pack. This paper is just gorgeous and has Champagne foiling on it.
The sentiment was stamped onto Vellum cardstock and heat embossed with Clear powder.
Our new Champagne Rhinestones added a perfect finishing touch.
Here is the Video ...
