I created this card that reminds me of summer using Designs by Ryn stamps. I used Ryn's two beautiful Flower Lace stamps together with one of her Faeries from the Dancing Faerie Set. I find it amazing that she hand drew the lace which looks like the 'real thing' when stamped as you can see below. .
The background was created by stamping Flower Lace 1 with Brilliance Platinum Planet Ink over dark purple card stock. The light is catching the lace at the top so it appears lighter than the bottom, but it's not.
I stamped Flower Lace 2 using Colorbox Midnight & Boysenberry pigment inks, then embossed with clear and cut the flowers out. The Faerie from the Dancing Faerie Set was stamped with the Boysenberry Ink and embossed with clear. I coloured her with Stargazer Micacolor paints. Her skin is painted lightly which is difficult to see in the photo.
The leaves are from a Crealies Die - CL CP 06 (actually creates a flower, but I've seen Miranda using them for leaves & I love them). I also painted them with the same Micacolor paints which are beautiful, mica powder gives a shine that again you cannot see in the photo.
If you have a chance, please stop by Miranda's and Eileen's Blogs, both with lots of inspiration, who are also on Ryn's Design Team.
Thanks for stopping by and enjoy your day !

Hey Shirley, love how you cut the flowers out of Flower Lace 2 to emphasize them. Also like how you've been using the individual faeries separately. Great card! Thank you! xoxoxo
Gosh, it is hard to believe that Ryn hand drew the lace images! Wow! she is talented. The manner you used them in the background is amazing! Such a vibrant background to magically show off the fairy!
