Good morning! I’m so excited to be a stop on the hop for the Christmas in July release from Waffle Flower! Here’s what I created today using the gorgeous Poinsettia set!
To start I took a piece of red cardstock and blended black soot distress oxide ink around the edges keeping it lighter towards the center of the panel. I let it dry completely and then stamped the sentiment and poinsettias randomly across the panel with versamark and heat-embossed them with gold tinsel embossing powder.
Next I used R59, R89, and 100 copic markers to add a little shading to the flower petals. I kept them darker in the centers and lighter towards the outer edges. It’s subtle but provides some interest across the card! Finally I finished the card with a few metallic gold sequins for a little extra sparkle!
And that’s it for today! I’ll have more to share later this month but I hope my card inspired you and I’d love to know your favorite products from the July release!! 😉
