For today’s blog hop I created two cards using the newly released products. For the first card I used Craft Your Life Project Kit: Chocolate Flowers. This set features two elegant and subtle pattern blocks that are great for creating beautiful backgrounds and adding a hint of texture. I started by stamping my background stamp twice with Starlight Fresh Dye Ink onto white cardstock.
Next, I used a coordinating Chocolate Flowers Die Set. It includes a Zero-Waste die that will give you a plethora of flowers and leaves. I die cut it out of white cardstock and mixed and matched my layers to create beautiful flowers.
I used Pink Diamond and Pinkalicious from Cherry Blossom Fresh Dye Ink Bundle, green shades from Tropical Forest Fresh Dye Ink Set along with Misty Morning and Cloudy Sky from Tranquility Crisp Dye Ink Set to add colour to all the elements and put them together to create a lovely floral arrangement. My last step was to add a sentiment from the set.
For my second card I used the Build-A-Garden: Lovely Rose Peony. I stamped it twice with black ink and used the Build-A-Garden: Lovely Rose Peony Layering Stencil Set to easily colour the flowers.
I decided to keep the design monochromatic and I used green shades from Tropical Forest Fresh Dye Ink to colour flowers and leaves. I added only a little touch of orange with Snapdragon ink from Golden Sunset Fresh Dye Ink Set.
To finish it off I added two sentiments stamped with black.
That’s it for me and your next stop is Svitlana Shayevich.
