Hi Friends!
I
hope you are having a great week so far!
I had a chance to spend some time in my stamping studio today and decided to create another One Layer Floral card using the Create with Connie and Mary CCMC406 Color Challenge along with Splitcoaststampers’ Alphabet“N” Challenge (I chose neutrals for my “N”). I know, why would you create flowers with brown and grays? Not sure, but when I saw this color combination, this card came to my mind- lol!!
If
you have not had a chance to visit the above challenge galleries yet, I
encourage you to do so- it always amazes me how many different cards can be
designed with one color, sketch or theme challenge!
To
create this card:
Use a bone folder to
score and fold a 4 ¼” x 11” piece of Extra Thick Whisper White cardstock.
Create a diagonal
mask from a piece of scrap paper and tape down to a craft mat using washi tape (or any tape that will lift easily from your paper :-)).
Ink the large flower
image from You’ve Got This with Stāz-On® Jet Black Ink and stamp onto the card
base.
Stamp an additional
flower onto a piece of sticky note paper, fussy cut the image to create a mask and
repeatedly re-ink the floral image and stamp along the diagonal line as well as
in the corner.
Color the blossoms
with the Stampin’ Write Crumb Cake marker, add additional shadows with the
Smoky Slate marker and use the AquaPainter™ to blend the colors.
Using the Smakin’
Acetate technique, scribble some color from the Crumb Cake and Smoky Slate
markers into the center of a clear envelope (cut open like a book), spritz the
ink and close the envelope, use your fingers to “smoosh/smack” the colors together, re-open the
envelope and lay the card front into the ink.

Ink the Timeless
Textures border stamp with Crumb Cake Classic Ink and stamp around the border.
Add additional
distressing with the splatter stamp from Timeless Textures and Smoky Slate
Classic Ink.
Ink the sentiment
from Rose Wonder with the Basic Gray Stampin’ Archival Pad™and stamp onto the
card front.
Use a ruler with the
Basic Black Stampin’ Marker to add the line on the diagonal and apply Clear
Wink of Stella® to the flowers to finish off the card.
