MY CARDS:

Okay, let's get started on some inspiration! I really enjoyed creating with these products! You all know I love flowers, so you won't be surprised to see them on each card today.

This first card was created using the beautiful, Fairy Tale Rose stamp set and some water coloring. It's a simple design but I added some dimension with the shadow around the rose, plus a bit of splatter.


 

This next card was created using the lovely, Book Engravings stamp set. It's actually a layering set but I always struggle with stamping flowers with a layered ink technique. Don't ask me why, it just isn't my thing. But luckily, there are open images in this set that are perfect for coloring! I watercolored this one too.


 

And last but not least is this amazing, gorgeous, Ranunculus Bouquet 3D embossing folder! Oh, my gosh, this folder gives unbelievable dimension! After running it through my embossing machine, I added color, to just the raised areas, by carefully adding ink using some blending brushes. I love the results!

 

And that's a wrap for me. I hope I've given you a bit of inspiration for using these fabulous products!

Up next on the hop is my dear friend, Virginia at her blog, Yes Virginia.

Thank you so much for stopping by! Enjoy the rest of the hop.
