Here's my card for this week's Muse Challenge. Jenni gave us this gorgeous card as our inspiration:
I was inspired by Jenni's:
-floral theme
-colours
-layout
-black sentiment
I have had this set for a long time, but never really used it. Jenni inspired me to get it out. I decided to 'reverse' my colours and make the flower white with a blue sponged background around it.
I stamped the flower in versamark. For the centres and leaves, I used my MISTI to stamp once in colour then once again in versamark. Then I embossed the whole thing with clear embossing powder before sponging with distress inks.
I used:
-Altenew Watercolor Wonders
-Verve Simply Amazing
Your reverse inking of the inspiration piece is genius. The sponging around the flower looks amazing. And I love the circular panel and sequins.
ReplyDeleteWonderful in many ways, Ardith! Thank you for the reminder of how helpful it is to use the Misti for stamping additional colors/layers! Love your yellow flower center being clear embossed with the entire blossom!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful! This card is so precious and peaceful!
