I wanted to showcase this gorgeous new Bloom & Grow Stamp Set floral on a color of cardstock you might not ordinarily think of. The Hero Hues Adriatic Cardstock was the perfect choice. The vibrant, rich color is one of my absolute favorites! The floral was stamped in the bottom left corner and the upper right using the Embossing & Watermark Ink and heat embossed with gold embossing powder. The leaves were stamped in the bottom right corner and a sentiment from the set was also stamped and embossed as shown.
Polychromos Colored Pencils in the following colors were used to color in the flowers and leaves:
Flowers: Ivory (base of each petal), Indanthrene Blue, Cobalt Turquoise, Light Cobalt Turquoise
Leaves: Ivory (base of leaves), Juniper Green, Earth Green Yellowish
Once colored, Hero Arts White Liquid Watercolor was splattered over the card for distressing. Sea Salt Reactive Ink was applied around the perimeter of the design to soften the edges.
The card was finished with Champagne Sequins and Nuvo Crystal Drops in Pale Gold.
