Mackintosh Flower Panels (by Debbie)
For my card today I used one of the panels from this months Mackintosh Windows stamps.
This is a 6 by 6 card and was an easy, quick card to make. I started by stamping onto white card with Versafine then heat embossed with clear powder. The flower heads were coloured red with Alcohol pens, trimmed and mounted onto black. I didn't think that ribbon added the effect I wanted to the base card so I cut strips of black card and cut a few squares to add to the corner. I didn't add a sentiment as I thought I could give it to my hubby for Valentine's Day or his birthday.
Many thanks for visiting,
Debbie

Such a gorgeous card,love the design and what you have done with the stamps.xxx
ReplyDeletelovely card, very Mackintosh feel to it
ReplyDeleteI love the weaving effect of your strips of paper which reflect the Mackintosh style so well, as do your little squares. The effect of the bottommost panel crossing the paper strips adds such lovely interest. The elegance of this whole design is very striking & I agree it's perfect for a male Valentine's Card.

The background using the strips of black card and the little squares definitely adds to the Mackintosh feel of the card. I also like the repeating stamped image across the card. The red and black is great with a Valentine in mind.

ReplyDeleteI like how you cut your black strips of paper. It really adds a nice touch. Thanks for the inspiration.
ReplyDeleteI don't often use red & black together but you've inspired me & I should experiment with them more often
