Welcome everyone, Corinne here on the blog today sharing with you my newest creation using the AquaInk Transfer Sheets Serafina with the A2Cotton Watercolor Panels

These AquaInk Transfer sheets are just AMAZING! So easy to use and make stunning cards in just minutes.

I started by placing the transfer sheet face down on my watercolor panel, spritzed with water and dabbed with paper towel. Lifted the paper up and WOW, just WOW! Let it dry for a few minutes and you are ready to make your card. 

I placed my card base in my stamping platform and stamped my sentiment in the center on an angle.  

I then cut my image on an angle and created 2 matts to coordinate. I    placed both have down using foam tape to add the perfect dimension. 

I added a few enamel dots to complete my card.

I hope you check out all the AquaInk Transfer sheets and they are so fun and easy to work with. 

Thanks for stopping by

Hugs

Hello and welcome back to the inspiration blog.  Today we are working with the adorable Cone of Shame stamps and dies from the Fuzzy Wuzzies line.  I am in LOVE with the fuzzy wuzzies and I think everyone else is as well.  My great niece said my construction worker card was an alien!  She is 3 and I didn't know she knew what an alien was!

This card, however, she knew was a puppy!  He's so cute in his cone.  We will start with an A2 white card panel cut down to 3.75" x 5" and I started building the puppy first.

Using my stamp positioning tool, I stamped the puppy a little offset and lower from the middle of the card, as I knew I wanted my sentiment above and left.  I started with the body first, stamped in Iced Tea Ink and a touch of Coffee Bean added at the edges.  I then added the head in Iced Tea and the ears in Coffee Bean.  The legs and tail were a combination of Iced Tea and Coffee Bean, as you can see.

I stamped the face in Raven Ink and then die cut the cone from white card stock.  I added a heart to the cone and stamped it in Kiss Me Red.  I die cut the Band-Aids then stamped them in Little Boy Blue Ink.  I also stamped the paw prints and bones across the bottom of the card in the same ink, along with Pink Tutu Ink. I used the stamp positioner to get even spacing for the stamping on the bottom of the card.  Lastly, I stamped the sentiment in Raven Ink and added two hearts in Pink Tutu.

To finish off the card, I layered the card panel on black and mounted it on a pink card base using foam strips.  The black offset just makes everything pop and I love the pink and black combination.  This is an A2, top folding finished card.

I hope you enjoy playing with these Fuzzy Wuzzies sets.  They are so much fun!  Here's hoping you get some time to craft today!  Hugs, LeeAnn

In today's post, I am showcasing the beautiful Fresh Cut Tulips Stamp Set, Fresh Cut Tulips coordinating dies, Fresh Cut Tulips Layering Stencils, along with the Stepped Edge Die and Everyday Vertical Sentiments from the "No Bounds Collection".   The No Bounds Collection was just released last week!

I started by stamping the images on white cardstock with Raven Hybrid Ink.  I used the Fresh Cut Tulips Layering Stencils to add color to the tulips.  It really made a HUGE difference to have the layering stencils to color the images.  For reference, I used Pink Tutu, Soft Kisses, Banana Cream Pie, Dan-D-Lion, Key Lime Pie, and Olive Branch Hybrid Inks.  I absolutely love the combination of these colors!

To make the images pop, I used colored pencils to add more detail and dimension to the flowers, and used the Fresh Cut Tulips Coordinating Dies to cut them out.

Next, I used the Stepped Edge Die to die-cut the middle of an A2-size notecard!  I adhered the same to a light gray card base using foam adhesive for added dimension.  

Layering the tulips with liquid glue and foam dots in the middle of the card was easy, as I already had all the necessary pieces.  I added a few branches using the Petite Petals Die and stamped the sentiment using the Everyday Vertical Sentiments Stamp Set.  This stamp set is so versatile and a must-have for any stamper!

I finished the card design by stamping the squiggly lines and the rounded stamp with Coffee Bean Hybrid Ink.  Here's another look at the finished card:

I hope you like this card as much as I do.  Check out the new No Bounds Collection before they sell out!  Have an amazing day!

Hello everyone ! Lounon here !

Today, I'm going to show you how to make the most of your smaller stamp sets. We typically use the smaller stamps for sentiments or little accents, but today, I’ve decided to use the Get Well Soon Postage Collage Stamps set on its own to create my entire card.

Products used :

Get Well Soon Postage Collage 4x6 Stamps

Pinpoint Squares Dies

Pinpoint Circles Dies

First, I used the two little bandage stamps to make a wreath. You have three ways to do it. You can use the LDRS Pirouette Pattern Templates. You can also, if you have one, use a rotating stamping platform. Finally, if you can't use the first two options, stamp them manually, you can trace a circle with a compass to help you align them.

Then, I used two circles (3 1/8" and 1 1/4" = 8cm and 3.2 cm) from the Pinpoint Circles Dies to frame my wreath.

After that, I cut a 4" (10.2 cm) square with one of my Pinpoint Squares Dies. I stamped various stamps from the set with black ink. I had a little accident with my stamp on the middle of the card, but luckily for me, it won't show at the end since this part will be covered.

I also stamped the round sentiment.

I colored all my little images. I kept the coloring simple, you just want to add a little bit of color and depth. I used a circle die to cut the round sentiment (the one from the Postage Collage Dies is perfect for it). I used the circle die multiple times on thick cardstock and glued them behind my round sentiment to add depth.

I put foam behind my circle frame and glued it on my square. I glued the round sentiment in the middle.

Finally, I matted and layered my card with a bigger blue square.

Et voilà!

May the craft be with you!

• Bouquet Maker stamp set
• Bouquet Maker masking stencil
• Hand Torn Rectangle dies
• Pattern Background stencil
• Texturize It stamp set
• Macarons stamp set

I started cutting a panel from white cardstock with the medium "Hand Torn Rectangle" dies.

I then used the "Bouquet Maker" stencil to ink blend a red flower with green leaves on the top and one on the bottom and I stamped the corresponding images from the "Bouquet Maker" stamp set in coffee bean hybrid ink. 

I added some texture on this panel with the "Texturize It" stamp set with the iced tea hybrid ink, I darkened edges with a vintage brown water reactive ink and I splattered it with clean water and white and gold acrylic paints.

Once dry, I heat embossed twice with dark brown powder one of the sentiments from the "Macarons" stamp set and I set it aside.

I cut a kraft cardstock panel and I ink blended it blending a soft brown ink through the stripe stencil from the "Pattern Background" set and I splattered it with white paint.

I put everything together with a mix of liquid glue and foam tape and that's all.

Thank you so much for stopping by taking a peek.

Have a fantastic day. Big hugs, Silvia.

 This month, the very talented Kassi, who frequently shares card-making tutorials on the LDRS Creative YouTube page, served as my inspiration. She used watercolors to create a tiered ombre effect in one of her videos. I loved the technique so much that I just had to recreate it for myself. I've linked to Kassi's video below. 

(747) Layered Watercolor Background Tutorial | You Are My Anchor Impress-ion Press + Foil Plate - YouTube

Products used.

Petite Petals Dies – LDRS Creative

Stitched Heart Die Set – LDRS Creative

Watermark Emboss Pad – LDRS Creative

A2 Cotton Watercolor Panels – LDRS Creative

Simply Word Dies – LDRS Creative

I started this card by trimming precut watercolour panels down to 5" by 3 3/4" twice. On one of the panels I created a window by diecutting the largest of the hearts from the Stitched Hearts Dies from the centre. The second I used to create my ombre water colour panel.

Kassi gives a wonderful explaination of this technique in her video but basically you start off by painting a very diluted wash of your chosen colour of watercolour paint over the whole of the panel. Then dry it using a heat tool. Once dry you take the same colour paint but this time you add more pigment and less water to create a darker shade. Then paint this onto your panel, starting just below the top of the previous layer.

You continue on in this way until you've created a gradient of colour all across your panel from top to bottom. If you want defined layers, It's important to use your heat tool to dry in between each color wash or your layers will just blend together. Not drying in between layers would leave you with a smoother ombre effect, however, I think that would look beautiful too!

To break up the edge in between the layers I used the brush to dab on the paint, which added more texture and interest. I also splatterd the panel with the darkest shade of the paint and some white paint that I have in my stash. This technique is so easy and very forgiving. You really can't go wrong in my opinion! Once finished I set the panel aside to fully dry and began working on my floral images.

For the Petite Petal florals and leaves, I die cut them from more watercolour paper and painted them using the same watercolouring technique. Next I die cut the "Love" sentiment from the Simply Words Die Set from gold mirror cardstock and stacked it with 2 more white layers. This adds a little more height and gives the die cut more stability. I heat embossed the word "Sending" from a retired stamp set called Whispering Meadow in gold onto the watercoloured panel. I adhered it behind the heart window panel with some foam tape to add even more dimension. The die cut sentiment was adhered below the heat embossed sentiment on the watercolor panel. Then I arranged the florals and leaves around the heart and glued the finished card front to an A2 card base, which finished off this card. I didn't think of this until I'd finished but you could step this card desgin up by turning it into a shaker card!

I love how the Petite Petals die cuts frame out the heart perfectly. It's like they were made to go together! I hope you like how this turned out and I'd highly recommed checking out Kassi's video on this layered water colour technique.

Catch you all again next month! Bye!

In addition I decided to step things up by adding a layering of glitter embossing paste. Scroll down to see all that good shimmer.

If you’d like to recreate this card, you’ll need:

Postage Collage dies, Postage Collage Stencil, LDRS Hybrid Inks, Snail Mail Collage Stamp Set and Here Comes the Sun Postage Stencils and stamps.

• I decided to start with the stencilling and then diecut
• Pick out what ink colours you would like to use. LDRS Hybrid Inks has a huge collection to choose from.
• Align the first stencil over the postage collage frame stencil and ink blend. Continue to do the same with stencil 2 and 3.
  • Tip: For a simple blend use one colour per section
  • Tip: Stretch your colours by creating light ink colour and dark ink colour depending on how heavily you ink blend.
  • Tip: Step it up ink blend similar to my card using two ink colours per section.
  • Tip: Before removing the postage collage frame stencil using a complimentary colour and whatever ink is left on the brush, lightly ink blend. Repeat for all frames. This is certainly a step up choice but it is a great way to make the individual postage frames stand out even more than the die cut stitching.
• Lay back the third stencil overtop and add a layer of glitter paste for an added shimmer and shine.

• Diecut the stencilled peice out with the Postage Collage dies
• Stamp Sentiment: Pick out and stamp one or many of the sentiment from Snail Mail Collage Stamp Set and the Here Comes the Stamp set.
• Mount onto an A2 card base.

Hope you ‘enjoy’ed. Come create with us, because we don’t just make crafts - We Create Joy!

I created using the Sugar Rush Collage Stamp set and

the Wild West Collage Stamp Set

Ledger stamp

I stamped the ledger stamp first in alloy ink and then decided what stamps

from the set I wanted to place where.. you can use a thin

piece of plastic to lay over your cardstock to stamp on it first BEFORE you actually

stamp on your cardstock. That way if there is anything you don't like you can move

things around. I used Swimming Hole for the blue ink , and Plum Crazy for my Purple

and Raven which is a beautiful black .

For this card I did the same thing, I laid a piece of plastic over the top of my cardstock, laid my stamps out to make sure I would like everything first. 

For this card I chose Coffee Bean, Raven, Dark Wash Jeans and Olive Branch inks

The collage cards are so fun and you can create so many different styles and make it

girly or male or just whatever you want..

If you haven't tried the Collage stamps yet,

I hope you go check them out and just have a lot of fun! 

thank you for stopping by!

I needed a card for an office cubicle mate who shares my love of books and Harry Potter and all things Nerdy!  This is what I came up with!!  I started with the color scheme, because I love hot pink and black together and wanted to add a splash of lime green.  This stamp set just set the stage!!!

I began with an A2 white card base and I wanted the Fuzzy Wuzzy in the front so I stamped her first in Fandango Ink.  She comes from the Fuzzy Wuzzies Stamp set, but there are several add on sets with additional Fuzzy Wuzzies and different accessories to create your own theme if you wish to do something different!

I stamped the Fuzzy Wuzzy first in Fandango and masked her so I could stamp the cup of coffee (or tea) and it would be in the background.  I stamped the cup in Key Lime Pie Ink. I next added the glasses in Raven Ink and colored the lenses in with a very pale blue alcohol marker.  I then added the feet and stamped them with  In Your Face Orange Ink.  The eyes were stamped in Raven Ink also and then added the poof on top of her head (because she's extra) in  Lantern Yellow Ink.  I added the little envelope with the heart seal from the stamp set, to accentuate the office them and it is stamped in Raven Ink and the heart in Kiss Me Red Ink.

The perfect little sentiment was added in Raven Ink before I die cut the panel using the Star Octagon Frame dies.  I used two sizes from the set to stack the card panel on a black layering panel cut one size bigger.  I love that this die set comes with a little sentiment die in the center.  I didn't use it for this card, but I often do as it coordinates and ties the card together!

To assemble the card, I adhered the two card panels together with liquid glue and then mounted them to an A2 top folding, hot pink card base using foam adhesive for a little dimension.  I just love the pop of green and a little yellow which makes the hot pink have flare!

I would love to see your take on this card.  I hope you find time to get crafty today!

Hugs, LeeAnn

Here's what I used:

Petite Petals Die Set

Sentimental Rub-On Transfers - Bundle II

Madison's Garden A2 Coverplate

Scalloped Rectangle Frame Set

I wanted a subtle background for the beautiful Madison's Garden Coverplate die-cut and decided on using my watercolor.  I used a big flat brush to add water onto the paper and diluted the colors on my mat with a wet brush.  I then added the colors to the paper, being careful not to mix them too much.

To speed up the drying process, I used my heating tool and adhered the beautiful die-cut onto the watercolor background.  I used wet glue to add the same on a white A2-size card base.

The leaves and flowers were die-cut and watercolored, and I think they turned out so beautifully!  It totally complemented the floral background! 

I used the Sentimental Rub-On Transfer for the sentiment on the black cardstock.  This was then propped up on the card with foam adhesive for added dimension.  I finished my card design by adding the leaves and flowers.  Here's another look:

I hope you like this card and feel inspired to create a beautiful project today! Thanks for stopping by, and happy crafting!

Need a last-minute love card? Today, I am sharing with you a black and pink one I made, and it's all about masking and layering!

LDRS products used:

Alpha Stencil Pack

aLined Geos Stamps

Bouquet Maker Stamps

Bouquet Maker Masks & Stencils

A to Z Sentiments Stamps

Pinpoint Squares Dies

Hand Torn Squares Dies

First of all, I really recommend you to work on a draft when you have layering/masking projects. It doesn't need to be very clean, just die cut your base (here a torn square), stamp or stencil quickly all your elements, so you can see which element you need to stamp/mask first. Use your draft as a template for your card. To give you an idea, you can see my draft above.

For my "real" card, I used the 4" (10.2 cm) square form the Hand Torn Squares Dies onto white cardstock. I used my draft to place my two flowers from the Bouquet Maker Stamps. I used one mask from the Bouquet Maker Masks & Stencils to cover the biggest flower, and I masked the little leaves with masking paper (you can also use liquid masking fluid for the tiny leaves).

I placed my Y stencil from the Alpha Stencil Pack on top of my flowers and I inked it with red and pink inks. I kept my stencil and masks in place and added another heart stencil from the Pattern Background Stencils on top of it. I applied again my red and pink ink. I removed my stencils and my mask.

After that, I stamped pink and black hearts from the aLined Geos 4x6 Stamps. I also stamped my sentiment from the A to Z Sentiments Stamps.

I colored my flowers with my alcohol markers.

Finally, I matted and layered my panel with a 4"x4" black square I cut with one of my Pinpoint Squares Dies.

Et voilà!

May the craft be with you!

Products used:

Sugar Rush Collage stamp set

Macarons stamp set

Macarons coordinating dies

Liquid Marble Background stamp

I started cutting a panel from pink cardstock and I stamped the "Liquid Marble Background" stamp on it with dark pink ink.

I splattered with clean water and white and gold acrylic paints and I set it aside.

I then heat embossed in gold three macarons using the "Macarons" stamp set and the embossing ink.

I colored them with watercolor pencils, I splattered with white and gold acrylic paints and I cut them with coordinating dies.

I cut a strip of white cardstock and I created a pattern on it using the amazing "Sugar Rush" stamp set and a lot of hybrid inks in different colors.

I darkened edges with a light brown water reactive ink and I let it dry.

Next I heat embossed in dark brown one of the sentiments from the "Macarons" stamp set on a piece of light blue cardstock.

I put everything together using a mix of liquid glue and foam tape and that's all.

Thank you so much for passing by today.

I wish you a fantstic day. Big hugs, Silvia.

To be honest, I was in a bit of a creative slump! So when I started making this card I had no idea where I was going with it. However I perservered and in the end everything seemed to just fall into place.

Products Used

Bouquet Maker 5x7 Stamps – LDRS Creative

Rounded Rectangle Frame Dies – LDRS Creative

Elegant Sentiment Word Dies – LDRS Creative

Watermark Emboss Pad – LDRS Creative

I began making this card by creating a pretty floral patterned background panel. For this I trimmed down a panel of teal card to 4 1/4 by 5 1/2 inches. Then prepped the surface with anti-static powder and stamped some of the floral and foilage images from the Boquet Maker stamp set in Watermark Ink. Once I was happy with the design I sprinkled on some clear embossing powder and heat set it with a heat gun. 

Next I used some dark teal ink to ink blend around the edges of the panel to add some depth and creating a spotlight for the main focal point of the card. I also splatterd on some of the same ink to add a little more texture. Then I trimmed the panel down by 1/8 of an inch on all four sides.

The focal point of the card was created by die cutting the third largest Rounded Rectangle die from the teal patterned panel, then cutting the second largest from some white cardstock and layering them together. I adhered the teal patterned panel to a US A2, top folding note card and added the layered Rounded Rectangle frames to the centre.

Next I stamped one of the largest floral images from the Bouquet Maker Stamp Set and some of the leaves in black ink and coloured them in with alcohol markers. I love adding little dot details and highlights in white gel pen for more texture. The images were arranged onto the card front towards the bottom left, somewhat following the curve of the rectangle frames.

I die cut the Best Wishes sentiment from the Elegant Sentiment Dies, 3 times from white cardstock and once from mirror gold cardstock. Then I used liquid glue to stack them together before adhering them to their respective shadow layers, that were also cut from white cardstock.

To finish off I added a few gold pearls, which ties in with the shiny gold of the sentiment. So there you have it! I card that just kind of developed out of nowhere!

I hope you like it and I'll catch you all again next month, bye!

Welcome back everyone.. Corinne here today to share 3 cards I created out  

of the new Untamed & Unfiltered Collection

For my first card I used the Alpha Stencil pack and Stenciled the "W" centered on my card front. I  then used the Bouquet Maker Stamp set and stamped my flower around the "W" how I wanted them and colored them in with Alcohol Markers. 

I  then used a sentiment from A to Z sentiment Stamps

For my second card I used the Winding Celebrations stamp set and cut it out with a circle die. for the base of my card I used the beautiful Floral Reverse Background stamp. I placed the circle in the center using foam tape. I then stamped and fussy cut a bunch of flowers from the Bouquet Maker Stamp set. 

I colored the flowers with alcohol markers and placed them along the bottom of the circle, some flat and some with foam tape. 

For the Third card I created I used aLined Geo Stamp set and randomly stamped the stars going down the left side. 

Using lots of different colors of hybrid inks. 

I hope you have checked out the new release and are

having as much fun with them as I am...

thank you for stopping by

hugs! 

Good morning and welcome back to the inspiration blog.  Valentine's day is coming up and it's not always a happy holiday for everyone.  However, most of us have a forever, special friend in our lives.  That one special person you've know since childhood or maybe found as an adult, but share an unexplainable connection.  You can talk about anything, share anything, you're always there for each other through thick and thin, you talk everyday even about mundane things!

Today we're going to make a friendship Valentine card.  I'm using the aLined Geos Stamp Set together with the Winding Celebrations 5x7 Stamp Set to create this collage card for your favorite friend.

I started with an A2 card base and Pistachios-A-Plenty Ink.  I only use three inks on this card so it's simple and fun and easy to throw together. I stamped the square lines twice in pistachio on an angle and moved on to the lined butterfly.  I chose the butterfly so it would be a little less lovey dovey.  The stamp set does come with hearts as well.

I stamped the lined butterflies and two of the solid butterflies in La La Lavendar.  The other solid butterfly was stamped in pistachio.  I then added the winding sentiment and stamped it in Raven Ink.  I added a few smaller butterflies stamped in Raven ink, as well as one more stamped in lavendar in the center of the sentiment.

I cut the card panel down by 1/4" on each side and centered it on a piece of pistachio colored cardstock.  This panel was then adhered to an A2 top folding card base.  I added a few sequins for a little shine and called it done!  

I think it's a very sweet card for a sweet someone in your life!  I hope you find time to get crafty today!  Hugs, LeeAnn

For my first card today, I am showcasing the Fuzzy Wuzzy Birthday Suit and Undercover Bundle, along with the Alpha Stencil Pack, A to Z Sentiments, and the Mixed Scallop Rectangle Dies.

I ink-blended the scallop die-cut and the card base with Soft Kisses, Tangerine Orange, Dan-D-Lion, and Key Lime Pie Hybrid inks using some blending brushes.  It took a while to blend the colors, but I am happy with how they turned out!

I foam-mounted the scallop die-cut on the card base and used the Alpha Stencil Pack, along with blending brushes and the colors Lipstick Red and Soft Kisses.   

Next, I stamped the cute little "Fuzzy Wuzzy" image using Tropical Sea, In Your Face Orange, and Raven Hybrid ink.  I also stamped the sentiment from the A to Z Sentiments and added the red heart to finish the look.

For my next card, I used one of my favorite alphabet dies called Sophie Alpha Uppercase Die Set, along with the aLined Geos Stamp Set, Star Octagon Frame Die, and Petite Petals Die.

The background was made by ink-blending the base with Soft Kisses Hybrid ink.  I used the aLined Geos stamp set to create the pattern with the same ink for a monotone look. 

Next, I die-cut the leaves and flowers using the Petite Petals Die set, as well as the white frame using the Star Octagon Frame die, and the word "LOVE" using the Sophie Alpha Uppercase Die Set.  I love mixing and matching old and new products to create a beautiful card!

I hope you were inspired today with the projects I made for Valentine's Day!  Thanks for stopping by, and happy crafting!

Hello everyone! Lounon here !

Today, I am sharing with you a birthday card I made with products from the Untamed and Unfiltered collection and a few staples.

Products used:

Winding Celebrations 5x7 Stamps

Bouquet Maker 5x7 Stamps

Bouquet Maker Masks & Stencils

Floral Reverse Background 6x6 Stamp

Stitched Scallop Arch Dies

Arches Dies

First, I used the 3 3/16" x 4 1/2" (8.2 cm x 11.4 cm) die from the Stitched Scallop Arch Dies on white cardstock. I stamped my sentiment from the Winding Celebrations Stamps in the middle with purple ink. I also used my dies two more times on thick cardstock (I used oat boxes) and matted and layered them to add a little bit of depth.

After that, I stamped flowers and leaves from the Bouquet Maker Stamps on the bottom and top of the arch. I used the Bouquet Maker Masks & Stencils to mask some of the flowers so they can appear on top of each other.

I colored them with my alcohol markers.

I cut a bigger 4 7/8" x 4" (12.4 cm x 10.2 cm) arch with one of my Arches Dies on white cardstock. I stamped my Floral Reverse Background Stamp on it with teal ink.

I glued my small arch in the middle and matted and layered it with a bigger scalloped one cut from purple cardstock.

Et voilà!

May the craft be with you!

Product used:

• Perfect Petals 3D embossing folder
• Petite Petals die set
• Pinpoint Circles die set
• Winding Celebrations stamp set
• Double Stitched Scalloped Circle die set

I started embossed a white panel with the beautiful "Perfect Petals" 3D embossing folder and I softy ink blended it using a blending brush.

Next I stamped one of the beautiful sentiments from the new "Winding Celebrations" stamp set on a piece of white cardstock, I stamped a red heart from the "aLined Geos" stamp set in the middle, I cut it with the smallest die from the "Double Stitched Scalloped Circle" set and I darkened edges with a light brown ink.

I die cut a circle from a turquoise cardstock with a die from the "Pinpoint Circles" set and some little flowers with the "Petite Petals" set from pink cardstock.

 I put everything together with a mix of liquid glue and foam tape and that's all.

Thank you so much for stopping by today.

Have a fantastic day! Big hugs, Silvia.

I began by cutting down a full sheet of heavy white cardstock into US A2 panels. For 2 of the cards, I stamped the largest of the aLined Geo shapes in a whimsical, diagonal pattern across the card panel. I used a rainbow of LDRS Creative Hybrid Inks. Then I took the smaller, more solid image and stamped them in the centre of each shape using the same colours of ink!

I used the smaller images in the set to fill out the pattern and add additional interest! 

For the butterfly version I used the smallest butterfly as part of the pattern. 

I decided to keep these cards very clean and simple so stamped the greeting from the Sending My Love Stamp Set, directly onto the card front in Raven Hybrid Ink. Then trimmed the card fronts down before adding them to black card bases which completed this card set! 
I love the simplicity of one layered, rainbow cards and I hope you will give this technique a try! 

If you’d like to recreate this card, you’ll need:

• Bouquet Maker Stamps and Masks Bundle,
• Star Octagon Frame Dies,
• LDRS inks
• Simply Words dies.

Get the look:

1. Stencil the Background
   Overlay the Bouquet Maker stencil onto an A2 piece of cardstock, positioning the florals where you want them to appear.
   (Tip: The mask set includes a super handy visual guide that shows which stencil matches each floral stamp.)
2. Blend the Ombre Blues
   Using an ink blending brush, blend a variety of blue LDRS ink over the floral stencils until you’re happy with the layout and floral coverage.
3. Add the Offset Stamping
   Next, position the floral stamp slightly offset over the blended florals and stamp in a darker color for a loose, playful look.
   Colors I used: Swimming Hole, Bali Blue, Marina Madness, and Dark Wash.
4. Fill in the Leaves
   Using a green ink (I used Prickly Pear Perfection), stamp the leaves from the set to fill in the gaps between the florals.
5. Create the Sentiment & Frame
   Die-cut a sentiment from the Simply Words dies using coordinating cardstock.
   Then, using the same cardstock, align two different sizes of the Star Octagon Frame Dies to cut a frame. Overlay this frame on your floral background.
6. Assemble the Card
   Attach both the frame and sentiment to your card base—and you’re done!

This card would be perfect in all colours — imagine it in soft pinks, vibrant corals, or even sunny yellows for a completely different vibe! The possibilities are endless.

For my first card I have used aLined Geos stamp set, Petite Petals Dies and Snarky Best Friends Stack Stamp Set. 

I stamped 3 of the Geo Squares in Scarlet red. Cut out the pieces of the Petite Petal Dies and placed them how I wanted them, then I added enamel dots as centers of the flowers.

For my Second card I created I used Alpha Stencil Pack and Fuzzy Wuzzies Birthday Suit Add on Stamps. I used Olive Green Hybrid ink and layered the ink darker in some areas lighter in others. 

and the Snarky Best Friends Stack Stamps

I  Hope you enjoyed my 2 card creations.. 

Thank you for stopping by

Hugs!
