Comfort and Hope

Hi Friends!

I had fun stamping this weekend and while I had the retired hostess stamp set, Bloom with Hope on my desk from a previous project, I decided to create a One Layer Clean and Simple card for the Addicted To CAS #120 “Florals” Challenge.  While I had the retired hostess stamp set, Bloom with Hope on my desk from a previous project, I decided to create a One Layer Clean and Simple card. 

I will also be linking this card to the Word Art Wednesday #300-#301 “Anything Goes” Challenge. 

I hope you have taken the time to visit each of the challenge sites listed above, and if not, I encourage you to do so- fabulous inspiration from all!

To create this card:

1). Ink the Bloom with Hope images with Versafine™ Onyx Black Ink, stamp onto Whisper White cardstock, apply clear embossing powder and heat with a heat tool. 

2). Using Stampin’ Write Markers- Blushing Bride, Flirty Flamingo and Mint Macaron, watercolor the image and add a watercolor wash behind the sentiment.

3). Ink the Timeless Textures small splatter stamp with the Mint Macaron marker and stamp onto the panel.

4). Trim the panel, mount onto a piece of Flirty Flamingo cardstock, trim again and mount onto a piece of Basic Black cardstock.  Mount the entire panel onto the Extra Thick Whisper White card base.

5). Apply shimmer to the flower petals with Clear Wink of Stella® to finish off the card.
