Flowers Fair with Embossed Vellum Technique

While we focus on Shy Shamrock this week, I wanted to share another card I made with the Flowers Fair stamp set.

I stamped the image in Basic Gray ink onto Vellum, sprinkled over Clear Emboss Powder, shake off the excess ad gently melt with my Heat Tool.  Turn it over and place onto a Silcone Craft Sheet or Stampin’ Pierce Mat. Use the Take Your Pick Tool with the Small Stylus end and trace the inside of each image. When you turn it over it will appear white, that’s what you want to create the Embossed Vellum technique!

Once you have done that, use Stampin’ Blends Combo Markers (Melon Mambo & Shy Shamrock) to colour the images on the reverse side.

Die cut the frame using two of the Beautifully Celebrated dies nested together with Secret Sea cardstock. Diecut the largest die into the centre of a piece of Shy Shamrock cardstock the same size as the cardfront.

Cut the vellum to a slighty smaller size than the card front, add adhesive around the edges and adhere it to a Basic Beige card base. Then adhere the Shy Shamrock card over the top and then adhere the frame. To finish, add the sentiment across the frame and some Glossy Dots Assortment.

Thanks for dropping by. I hope you join me next week for Smoky Slate inspiration.

Pumpkin Pie: Flowers Fair

Welcome to the Colour Creations Instahop. You can follow us on Instagram starting  @craftwithkate. Each week we will showcase the Stampin’ Up! colours in alphabetical order.

Week 44 – Pumpkin Pie

These handmade cards features the new Flowers Fair stamp set (a large background stamp) was the first to catch my eye in the new release products for March. I see so many possibilities for ways to colour these gorgeous flowers.

My first card is stamped in Black Memento ink onto white card and coloured with Watercolor Pencils, then I used a Blender Pen to blend the colour to make it more vibrant.

The second card I stamped in Versamark ink onto Basic Black card, added White Emboss Powder and melted it with the Heat Tool. Using the Craft White ink refill, I added a few drops onto a Clear Acrylic Block and using a brush, filled in all the images.

The White outlines were coloured using Blends Combo Markers and once dry, the images are filled with Wink of Stella (it’s hard to see the sparkle in the photo).

Both image layers are mounted onto a layer of Pumpin Pie cardstock then onto the card base. The sentiments are from the Greetings For All Mix & Match Ephemera Pack and some retired ribbons. To finish off, I added a few of the little gold Dragonflies I had in my stash!

Thanks for dropping by. I hope you join me next week for Real Red inspiration.
