Floral With Love for Craftascope

Hello!

I thought I would share a card today that I have made using some of the new floral stamp sets from Nick and Craftascope...

I have to admit that I love floral stamps a lot, so I wanted to feature them on this card.

To start I used Broken China and Crushed Olive distress ink with an ink duster brush to add colour to a piece of stamping card. To add some extra texture I flicked some water across the card then after a few seconds blotted it with some kitchen roll...

Next I used one of the background stamps from 'Bloom and Grow' to add extra details using the same distress inks...

For my main focal image I wanted to have a frame so used the wreath stamp from 'Bloom and Grow', I stamped using sepia Versafine then added clear embossing powder over the top. I also added the bow from the same set and coloured them using a brown Pitt Pen from Faber-Castell...

To create the main images I used a flower and leaf stamp from 'Bloom and Grow' and a sentiment from 'Positive Journey'. I used the same ink and powder as the frame then coloured them using watercolours...

Once I had stuck these pieces to the card I was not totally happy with the spaces so added some extra flowers and another layer to the bow as well as an enamel dot...
