For the first card, I used Copic markers on Neenah Classic Crest 110lb card stock and then followed up with PrismaColor Colored Pencils to add depth. Ornate Background from Simon Says Stamps is the background image. When I first got this gorgeous stamp, I went ahead and stamped several times with Tuxedo Black Ink to have extra on hand. My sentiment is a die that has been out of stock for a while, but I finally have it in my hot little hands! Using my Big Shot I cut 4 and stacked them up. VersaMark Ink coated the dies and then I heat embossed 3 times with Clear Embossing Powder for that pretty shine.
This next card stamped image is also from Simon Says Stamps called Beautiful Flowers and I decided to go with a teal flower - the heck with reality - this is the color I wanted to play with. Again, I used same inks/papers as the above card. And again, I used Copics with Colored Pencils but I also used Micron Pens to darken the nooks and crannies. The sentiment is from Always Here and stamped and heat embossed. I apologize for the poor quality photo - I took it with Instagram and then emailed the image to myself. (Lesson learned - take the dang pic and then post to instagram). Here is a link to instagram - ukidz
Final card is also a poor quality pic - see above -
For a better look click here. The image is Peonies and Tulips and uses the same papers/inks. The image is die cut with Stitched Rectangles in my Big Shot. The base is stamped with Cloud Ink from The Stamps of Life using an older stamp set from Inkadinkadoo.
Have a great day and keep crafting.
