Hello everyone, I hope your day is going well.
I have two designs today featuring stamps from the wonderful and whimsical Patchwork Landscape. I love this stamp set :) Yes I know I say that a lot, but it's true.
I
blended Mustard Seed and Peacock Feathers Distress Inks using ripped cardstock as a
mask to create the background. I also used a piece of cardstock with a
circle and Picked Raspberry Distress Ink to create the sun. I
stamped a fragment from Textured Fragments in
some areas of the ground. The patchwork tree was stamped with Cobalt
Archival Ink and coloured with Distress Inks, water and brush (on my
craft mat). 'Just to Say' is from Mackintosh Words.
The die
cut flowers are by Heartfelt Creations - Vintage Floret (coloured with
Mustard Seed and highlighted with Peacock Feathers Distress Inks) and
the Pine leaf is a McGill punch.
This second design is CAS created with circles cut into card stock.
I
used Mowed Lawn, Peacock Feathers & Picked Raspberry Distress Inks
blended over the circles. The stamping again is with Cobalt Archival
Ink,coloured with Distress Inks and highlighted with a white Gelly
Roll pen. 'Just a Note" is from Mackintosh Words.
Thanks for your visit and have a wonderful Easter,
Shirley

Wonderful cards Shirley. Lots of lovely colors and inspiring ideas. That little hollyhock is becoming one of my favorites of the sheet. Really like how you have used it here. I have just seen Rachel Fisher using it upside down which gives it a whole new look as well. Have a great weekend.

The first is very striking with those little flowers echoing the yellow circular patchwork pattern of the tree, plus the texture fragment picks up on the hollyhocks. I love the CAS idea - those circles really bring out the hollyhock centres & I love the way you managed to get the 'o' in NOTE in the middle of that green circle.

They are so beautiful! Beautiful stamps and really beautiful inking. Thank you for sharing these with us Karen x
ReplyDeleteGreat cards Shirley. I really like the softer background for the sharp stamped image on the first and the way the yellow flowers add a ray of sunshine too. The CAS card is a smashing idea. I do like these stamps. Have a great weekend. Elaine x
