Hello! I have a quick project for your today that I very much enjoyed making. Although it isn’t snowing, I am longing for Spring and couldn’r resist making a happy card. I used gelatos to make my background both by using it as water color to get a base and then I blended heavier areas with my fingers. I think I prefer the latter techique as it takes me back to childhood fingerpainting. Isn’t awesome as adults we get to call it a technique? For the flowers I inked the stamps in layers using one color at a time to achieve the blended colors. I also added a bit of ink via aqua brush to the leaves. Without further ado…
Products used: white/purple/lt purple card stock, Faber Castell Gelatos Metallic Grape/Strawberry/Butter Cream, , Memento Ink Dandelion/Grape Jelly/New Sprout/Bamboo leaves, Distress Oxide Ink Picked Raspberry, Versafine Onxy Black Ink, Stampin Up Stamparatus Tool, Wink Of Stella, Altenew Enchanted Iris Stamp Set, Pink/white Baker’s twine.

Hi Joy, a pretty iris stamp, love the colours. I am awaiting the arrival of Autumn, the extreme heat has subsided and there is a distinct cooler nip in the air… have a wonderful week… Megan
Aren’t we funny creatures? We long for each season to change when we have extreme ends of the
Spectrum. I love Autumn and the beautiful colors. I hope it cools down for you!
