Happy Friday!!! I actually have a card to share today!!! Shocking, I know! Wait, it gets better! I have TWO cards to share today! :) Today is Blogger's Challenge Friday and this week's Challenge was to use a Technique, any technique and link to a tutorial. It is also Friends with Flair Friday at Unity so I combined again! I chose some of the solid images from Everythings Simply Tiny (OK, next week I promise to use a different set! :D) I used two different techniques for these, they are my favorite techniques for solid images, first I inked the stamps up using the Rock 'n Roll Technique, then I used the Misting Technique to blend the colors before stamping.
The layout is Mercy's Sketch. I added some stickles to the inside of each flower and covered the leaves with Diamond Glaze to give them that Shiny, Tropical look...
For the inside I used more of the Trellis patterned paper and stamped another flower in the corner...
While I was waiting for the Stickles and Diamond Glaze on the first image to dry I broke out the little stand of pine trees also found in the Everythings Simply Tiny Kit and decided to make another card! :) I added a few snowy details with a White Gel pen and some Stickles, then *decorated* one of the trees with Crystal Dots (colored with Copics.) The paper behind the image and on the card base is a Gorgeous Woodgrain from the Nutmeg Paper Pad...
Thanks for stopping by!!
