CC553 Birthday Blessings Rose

Hi Friends!!

This is the second card that I created for the Splitcoaststampers’  CC553 Color Challenge with a dessert option of Pearls or Rhinestones (again, what could be easier for me for dessert- lol!).  Details regarding the first card are in the previous post (located here) :-)

This card also incorporates the Splitcoaststampers’ SC562 Sketch Challenge.

Again, I hope you will take the time to visit both galleries to check out the wonderful inspiration from all!

To create this card:

Ink the Our Daily Bread Designs (ODBD) Christmas Rose image using

Stāz-On® and stamp Whisper White cardstock.

Color the flower image using Stampin’ Write Markers- Calypso Coral, Elegant Eggplant and Old Olive Stampin’ Write Markers (scribbling the markers on a craft mat and using an AquaPainter™ to color the image).

Create a mask for the flower, ink the Chalkboard Vine (ODBD) image using Bermuda Bay Classic Ink, stamp off and stamp over the masked image.

Use an AquaPainter™ to paint the petals with Frost White Shimmer Paint.

Use the Big Shot™ with the My Favorite Things ™ (MFT) Stitched Rectangle Dies to cut out the image, mount onto Calypso Coral cardstock and trim.

Stamp the sentiment from Doily Blessings (ODBD) using Stāz-On® Jet Black Ink onto Vellum,  trim and mount onto a piece of Elegant Eggplant cardstock, trim  and mount onto a piece of Bermuda Bay cardstock.

Use the Big Shot™ to emboss a piece of Whisper White cardstock with the Boho Chic Textured Impressions™ Embossing Folder, trim and mount onto a piece of Elegant Eggplant cardstock, trim and mount onto the Bermuda Bay card base.

Mount the layered Christmas Rose image onto the card front using dimensional foam.

Stamp the sentiment from Birthday Doily (ODBD) using Stāz-On® Jet Black Ink onto Whisper White cardstock, punch the edges using the Hexagon Punch, mount onto Elegant Eggplant cardstock, punch the edges with the Hexagon Punch, mount onto Bermuda Bay cardstock and punch the ends with the Hexagon Punch.

Mount the sentiment onto the focal image panel and add the Elegant Eggplant button with Natural Linen Thread to the Pearls to the ribbon to finish off the card.

Add the Pearl to the center of the flower to finish off the card.
