Hello blog friends! Today I have two cards to post for you. The first one is for CAS on Sunday Challenge #15 Floral Fantasy.
I have made this card using my new Magnolia Stamp. I got this one from a friend who had two of them and we did a trade. Worked out well for me.
I stamped the flower with Memento London Fog and then colored with Copics. I used BG10, colorless blender, Y11, Y08, Y38, and for the leaves, YG03, G07.
The Sentiment is from my new Flourishes stamp set, and on the inside it says, Always bring your own Sunshine. Love that! It is hard to see on this card, but I also used a Sakura glitter pen on the word "Blessings". I thought it was a nice touch.

The next card is for Dynamic Duos Challenge #67 using Crisp Cantaloupe and Calypso Coral.

I used the colors that I had as close to the ones that were required. The floral image is from Flourishes and after stamping, I used a wash of white acrylic paint to make it look like a muted water color. This will be a Get Well Card.


Thanks for looking, have a great day!

    1. Thanks Sharyn, Yes I bought a Flourishes stamp. Order it on Saturday and got it Monday. Great service, but I don't want to start buying yet from another stamping business. I would have to go back to work!

    1. Thank you Donna. Sharyn and I exchanged duplicate stamps, and I got the magnolia from her. Love it. I think that I may have mistakenly put the wrong card on the CAS site. Lol Can't see it yet.
