Hello everyone, I hope you had a great Easter.
I have a few designs to show today using the beautiful new Awesome Orchids clear stamp set.
I
used the new Abandoned Coral along with Picked Raspberry Distress Inks
in the background (using an Acrylic Block & water). Next I added
texture with white acrylic paint, a small stencil and a
bottle cap. The little dots were created using the 'snow' stamp from the Frosty Trees set. I painted the pretty little Orchid with Inktense pencils.
I used the same colour theme below:
I used the same background technique as the first card. I stamped the Orchid stem & leaf
image three times onto the background, and one of the flower heads on separate card stock.
I coloured the leaves and flowers with the same Distress Inks along with Seedless
Preserves, cut them out and attached.
And the last design is a quick CAS card:
Using
a circle cut from cardstock as a mask, I blended the new Cracked
Pistachio and Mustard Seed Distress Inks over top and used a stencil for the
texture. I coloured the image with pencils.
Thanks for stopping by. I hope you can visit often to see the beautiful designs by my talented teammates.

Gorgeous cards, Shirley. Stamps are so pretty and abandoned coral looks lovely in the background.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful Shirley, I especailly like the last one, something about that masked circle really appeals.
ReplyDeleteStrikingly vibrant. I like the way you have echoed the harlequin background with pattern of the horizontal strip with the first sample. The final CAS is my favourite with the elegance of the orchid against the circular inked panel - your blue inked cardstock edge is a lovely touch butting up against the green.
