Moving on to the card- I am loving the new Color Fuse Ink Cubes, they are bright and cheery. Most often we use the same color family inks while doing layered stamping, but today I decide to mix it up a bit. And I was very amazed at how beautifully these inks works together even when combined with other hues of colors. Here in my card today I used the pinks and yellow ink cubes to create this beautiful orange colored peony flowers. i used the Fragrant Blooms Layering stamp set for the focal image of this card and the sentiment is from Kittie Says Phrase 1 stamp set.
Start by stamping the small and the large floral images from the Fragrant Bloom stamp set on a white carsick. Stamp the first solid layer using Mango ink cube. the second layer was stamped using Posey ink cube and the final layer was stamped using Nectar.
After the stamping is all done fussy cut the flowers leaving a small white border. You can cut it close to image as well, but sometimes I find it easy to cut by leaving a small border
Temporarily arrrange the flowers on a gray side folding notecard in order to stamp the leaves. Stamping the leaves directly to the front of the notecard panel using Moss and Clover Ink. I also did a few second generation stamping of the leaves using Moss ink.
Adhere the flower arrangement to the left side of the notecard using foam adhesive.
Stamp and emboss the sentiment on a black cardstock with white embossing powder. Cut it into a fish tail banner and adhere it to the front panel tucking in ne side of the banner under the floral arrangement.
Add nuvo crystal drops in black to tie in the black from the sentiment banner. I also added nuvo glitter drops to the center of the flowers and the card is finished..
