Funky Flowers

Good Morning everyone.

Today im sharing a little DL card, a friends challenge was to use red, yellow & sky blue on a floral card, wanting to try out my new paperartsy stamps this was the outcome, a nice bright cheerful card. 



DL white card (approx 8x4")  I stamped the flowers direct onto the card front and doodled in some ground for them with a black fine line.  I stamped the flowers again onto white card and coloured them in simply with oxide inks and cut out the flower heads.  On the base card i splashed on some of the same inks to add interest to the background.  I coloured the leaves with green distress inks and the ground too.  I mounted the flower heads with foam tape to add dimension.  
Stamped sentiment to finish.  I went with Dream as i love nothing better than taking 10mins out of the day to sit in the garden and day dream, just listening to the life of the garden - a kind of meditation i guess.  I love listening to the garden birds but in my case its the screech of the Cornish Seagulls here😁


Just a little close up on my flowers, i added touches of glitter glue. 

Items Used:
Paperartsy Zinskiart stamps 'ZA38'
Crafters companion sentiment stamp
Oxide inks - candied apple, lemonade, tumbled glass, salty ocean
Diskress inks - pistachio, twisted citron
Diamond stickles
CraftUk ltd white smooth 300gsm card


Thank you all for stopping by once again, i do hope you have a good week.  Ive had toothache all last week so of to the dentist today.....will be good to get off soft food and onto something with crunch!  Emmax



Id love to enter the following:
