Today's card features a lovely stamp from Simon Says Stamp called 'Floral Garden'. I stamped it, and a sentiment using a stamp from the 'Go To Words' set by Visible Image, onto smooth white card using Versamark ink, then heat embossed it all using metallic gold embossing powder from WOW. The floral stamp is huge - there's quite a large portion below the section shown on my card. I coloured the image using a mixture of mica pigments and Cosmic Shimmers watercolour paints. I distressed the edges a little before adding it to a card blank.
It's super shiny - this is what it looks like when the light hits it:
- Allsorts - In the Garden
- Creative Knockouts - Embossing Delight
- Seize the Birthday - Make a Spring Garden
- Simon Says Stamp (Mondays) - Bright & Cheerful
- Stamping Sensations - Inspired by Nature
