Good morning blogland,
Well my plan of posting on Friday evening didn't happen, did it! So here we are back to mornings (but not that early!) and it's Saturday!
I think this card maybe a complete first for me - I can't remember ever making a CAS coloured with Copics only flowers image card before. I'm very much a character (and more often a cute character) than a floral colouring person.
I keep telling myself it's good to try new things, that I'm not having an angst ridden, mid-life, crisis of 'just what is my style' moment! I wonder if I will ever settle into a particular 'style' that someone can point at and say, oh yes that's a 'These I Made' card'!! 😀
Anyhooo, card:
Supples used:
Rubber stamps:
Flowers: My Favorite Things - Corner Blooms
coloured with Copics
Sentiment: Taylored Expressions - Simple Strips : Birthday
Corners: Now I think those are a Lili of the Valley stamp set, but I'm not sure as they are very old and I've lost the packaging. So don't take my word for that!
Dies:
Creative Expressions - Noble Collection: Double Stitched Squares
Taylored Expression - Simple Strips : Well Rounded
Anything else:
Copic Fine liner
What I did:
Cut a square of Copic friendly paper with the square die.
Stamped (twice) the Corner Blooms and coloured them in with my Copics.
Stamped the decorative corners in the corners and then drew lines with a fine-liner to make a border,
Took a stamped and cut sentiment added some 3d foam to it and popped it on the image.
Glued the whole lot to a top folded 5x5 square card.
et, voila - job done!
I think I've probably waffled on enough at the beginning of the post, so I'm wandering off now. Got a day's worth of washing and cleaning to get on with! Oh, and some encouraging 'do your homework, now!" to be done as TTT is off for a postponed days ice-skating trip with a friend tomorrow.
See you soon,
Signing off,
Sarah
