Hello everyone, I hope you had a great Easter.
I have a few designs to show today using Chocolate Baroque's new beautiful Awesome Orchids clear stamp set.
I used the new Abandoned Coral along with Picked Raspberry Distress Inks in the background (using an Acrylic Block & water). Next I added texture with white Acrylic paint and a small stencil by Memory Box and a bottle cap. The little dots are a 'snow' stamp from the Frosty Trees set. I painted the pretty little Orchid with Inktense pencils.
I used the same colour theme below:
I used the same background technique as the first card. I stamped the Orchid stem & leaf
image three times onto the background, and one of the flower heads on separate card stock.
I coloured the leaves and flowers with the same Distress Inks along with Seedless
Preserves, cut them out and attached.
And the last design is a quick CAS card:
Using
a circle cut from cardstock as a mask, I blended the new Cracked
Pistachio and Mustard Seed Distress Inks over top and used a stencil for the
texture. I coloured the image with pencils.
Here is a look at the complete stamp set which is pretty cool as you can pick which flower head you want to add to the stem.
Thanks for stopping by and have a great day,
Shirleyx
