Fantasy Bloom

I made this card with the new set from Flourishes called Fantasy Floral Garden. Just love it! It has 23 stamps, and some of them are just the prettiest words that go so well with the floral images.

This is a fairly simple and basic card. The main image is stamped in Black Stazon onto Whisper White and watercolored with reinkers and an aquapainter. Such a small amount of watercoloring was happening that it didn’t bother the plain paper at all. The DP is by Basic Grey, available at Flourishes as well. The layout is from today’s sketch challenge at SCS. Pretty basic and simple card, but I love the colors!!!

  • Stamps: Fantasy Floral Garden by Flourishes
  • Paper: Bashful Blue, Old Olive, Whisper White, Lily Kate 6 x 6 pad by Basic Grey
  • Ink: Black Stazon. Reinkers in Bashful Blue, Certainly Celery and Barely Banana
  • Accessories: Old Olive Wide Grosgrain Ribbon, Brads, Photo Corner Punch, Horizontal Slot Punch, Mounting Tape, Aquapainter

  • Card: Standard A-2 size, 5.5 x 4.25
  • Main Image Panel: 2.5 x 3, each layer behind is 1/4″ bigger
