Good Morning everyone.
The Katzelkraft stamp set i used for my Christmas in July cards had a 4th door stamp which was more square than the others so didn't fit my arch shape so here Ive made a summery card with it instead.
6x6" white card base. I first stamped the image and watercoloured with distress inks, i added glossy accents to the little window & the lanterns and glitter to the flowers. Once dry die cut into a wonky stitched square.
I took a piece of white card, inked one side with iced spruce & shaded lilac distress inks which id used to watercolour some of the image and added to one side of a brick embossing folder and ran through the machine. On putting the card together I think i should have inked the other side of the folder so that the bricks were white and the mortar grey, but i think as ive covered most of it up I can get away with my wall building error😀
I die cut ivy from card previously inked with green brushos & pixie powders so it has a subtle shimmer in the light. I inked up a scrap of white card with raspberry & persimmon distress inks which i used to watercolour the flowers on the topper, once die i die cut into small flowers .I attached my door topper with glue gel and then arranged the ivy and flowers. I added glitter glue to the flower centers for a bit of shimmer.
Stamped sentiment to finish.
Just a close up
