Sunshine on a Stem

Hi Everyone! I hope you are having a good week. I want to share a card I made with the new release stamp set for this month from Sparkle N Sprinkle called Sunflower 643. I just love this pretty stamp set. I stamped the sunflower using Black embossing powder 170. I bleached out the image using bleach in a water pen. I love to see what colors lie underneath the paper and this turned out perfect for a sunflower! I used copics to color in the leaves but the flower petals were left as they were after I bleached them. I added Midnight Gold glitter G1080 to the center of the flower. 

 

I cut out the butterflies from green card stock using the Kensington Border Memory Box die. I then added Sparkle embossing powder EP107 on them.  

 

I used the Spellbinders Fancy Tags die for my sentiment. The sentiment was stamped and embossed with Black embossing powder.  

Thanks so much for stopping by. I hope you have a great day!

It's All Blue

Hi Everyone! I hope you are enjoying your weekend. I made this card for two challenges. One is the Penny Black challenge -- January Blues, and the Monochrome challenge at Charisma Cardz. I don't seem to work with blues very often, so this was different for me. I love this cute hedgehog from Penny Black. The sparkle on the flowers is Waterscape glitter courtesy of Sparkle N Sprinkle. Thank you for stopping by today. I hope you have a good one!
