Graciellie Designs - More Than You Know

Hello!

Today I'm sharing a card featuring Graciellie Designs! I paired two digital stamps sets, More Than You Know and Love, Love, Love.

I started with the heart wood grain from the Love set, pasting several and resizing them in a Word document. Then I printed it and the flower image from More Than You Know. I used my Spectrum Noir markers to color the wood grain and then used some watercolors to color the flowers.

I trimmed the background to fit a white card base. Then I fussy cut the flower basket. The sentiment was also printed and trimmed down.

Next, I added a strip of brown card stock over the background, then added the flower basket and sentiment with foam tape. I trimmed off the over hand from the basket.

With Love

Hello!!

I'm stopping by with a card that I made for Pinkfresh Studio's February Challenge! The challenge has a Love theme, along with a color challenge, all in one!!

I matched the colors the best I could to several Papertrey Ink, Hero Arts and Altenew ink colors. I used these colors with the Embroidered Blossoms stamps and dies. Stamping several of the flowers in different ink colors.

Next, I cut Circle Frame with Botanicals from watercolor cardstock.  I used the same inks I used on the flowers to color the frame.

From Scripted Bold  Sentiments 1, I stamped With Love and then heat embossed it gold. Then I added the circle frame and the different flowers and leaves that I had stamped. Last I rounded the corners of the white card base.

Wishing You Love

Hello!!

With tomorrow being Valentine's Day, I thought I'd share this fun love card!! Crafter's Companion's Foil Press is now available on their website and I grabbed one as soon as it appeared. I got a couple of the foil stamps and played around with them. This card features one of those experiments!

I started with some watercolor card stock, which is thicker then typical card stock, but the Foil Press had no problem foiling the rose metal stamp. I love how it turned out!!

Next, I did some watercolor smooshing with my Spectrum Noir Harmony Inkpads. I used Chinese Red, Fuchsia, Plum Jam. The watercoloring did not affect the foiling, though I didn't use a ton of water either!

After the watercoloring was dry I stamped Wishing You Love below the foiled rose. I added some black twine at the top of the panel and then added it to a black card base.

I started by added the two of the images to a Word document and then resizing them. I placed one behind the text which placed it behind the other image. Then I added and resized a sentiment.

Next, I printed it out and used my Spectrum Noir Tri-Blend Markers to color it, colors are listed at the bottom of the post. Then I trimmed the image a bit, fussy cutting along the top portion of the image and sentiment.

I found some purple stripped pattern paper and added it to a white card base. From an old dictionary I pulled out a page and then ripped both sides along the long side. I added it to the card. Then I added the colored image with foam tape and last found some matching gems!

Next, I fussy cut out the image and sentiment. With Crafter's Companion Twinkling Trellis background I cut a panel from white card stock. Then I used some black spray ink to flick splatters all over the cut panel.

I found a nice light purple cardstock and adhered it to white card base. When the cut panel was dry I adhered it over the purple. Then I added the colored flower basket and sentiment with foam tape.
