Happy Valentines Day! or Galentine’s Day! Depending on whether you’re spending this day with a special someone or decides, usually determines what you think about this holiday. But why not love yourself and be confident everyday? I find when the voice in my head as positive self talk, then I like myself more, and other do too. I just wish I could give that advice to younger me. With that said, I love this sentiment from the Candid Carnation stamp set from Sweet Sentiment Stamps.
Creating this Candid Carnation is pretty fun. I stamped the base layer once and each of the petal pieces 5 times in Peanut Brittle Memento Ink. I colored all of the layers with a four color blend of Olo Markers and then fan folded the petal pieces to create the crinkles in the flowers. I also matted the embossed panel in gold mirror cardstock to accent the carnation. I also thought it was fun to add glittered foliage to the arrangement. I just love all of the shimmer and shine on this card!
