Instructions
Step 1: Using the MAKE ART STAY-tion and 9x9 Craft Sheet, on a piece of Wendy Vecchi Perfect Cardstock, stamp a flower and leaves from the stamp set, Flowers Say It All, in Watering Can Archival Ink. Mask off flowers and leaves to be able to stamp more flowers and leaves in the foreground, to give it a dimensional look.
Step 2: Use the coordinating Stencil from the Stamp, Stencil, Die Set and ink the flower with Red Geranium Archival Ink and a Detail Blending Tool. Ink each flower, darker in the center and lighter towards the end of the petals.
Step 3: Do a little bit of inking to the leaves with Fern Green Archival Ink, leaving the tips white for highlights.
Step 4: To add some glitter to the flowers, use a paint brush and brush on some Distress Collage Medium Matte and then sprinkle on Distress Clear Rock Candy Glitter. Shake off excess.
Step 5: Stamp the sentiment from the stamp set in Cornflower Blue Ink.
Step 6: Add embellishments with Diamond Stickles and Robins' Egg Liquid Pearls. Attach card panel to an A2 size card base.
