Blended Bloom

Good morning!  I am popping on with another card that I made recently.  I love this flower by Stampin' Up called Blended Bloom.  I heat embossed it on white cardstock with white embossing powder then colored it in using a sponge dauber and pool party and bermuda bay ink pads.  I added a little early espresso to the middle, cut it out and popped it up.  The sentiment is from Four You.  I also added a little strip of silver glitter paper and part of a doily.  Clean and simple!

That's it for today.  I am going out with a couple of friends to a new (to me) craft store up in N. VA today!  Looking forward to finding new crafty goodies!!  Happy hump day!

Thinking of you

It has been a while since I posted anything, so I thought I would jump on and share a card that I will be teaching in one of my upcoming card classes.  This one uses a fun stencil from Simon Says Stamp and some gel medium.  I also reached for some Tattered Angels Glimmer Mist.  I haven't played with that in forever!  I thought this would make a good thinking of you card or even a nice sympathy card.  I like to keep some sympathy cards on hand, as I find them hard to make when I need them.

The butterflies were punched out of glossy cardstock and colored using some alcohol inks.  I adhered the main panel onto a black card base.

That's it for now.  I hope to be back tomorrow with another card to share!
