As you know Simon Says Stamp hosted a blog hop yesterday to showcase their latest 'Best Days' release and guess what! there is another one today!! On all of the stops along the way YOU could win a $25 voucher!!
I was part of yesterdays Blog Hop and didn't manage to get this card finished in time to add it to the line up so I am posting it now. It is a variation on a theme f one I posted yesterday CLICK HERE to see that post ;-)
I used a lovely 'Even More Spring Flowers Stamp Set' and Coordinating Dies .
I recently saw a Tim Holtz video where he used Alcohol Inks and then stamped with Grey Archival Ink over the top and then used a cloth to remove the colour, it gives a beautiful ghost like effect and I really wanted to try it! I used a flower from the set and a text stamp to create this effect.
I used Yupo Paper and Dandelion and Coral Alcohol Inks
I then used a Swirls and Dots Stencil and Blending Solution to add some more interest, isn't it pretty!
For this card I white heat embossed the flowers onto Vellum and coloured them from the back using copic markers and I used Memory Box Oval Dies to make a narrower and more delicate frame than the one I made yesterday.
I love the delicate look of this, so pretty don't you think!
and I finished the inside
