Thanks so much

I knew I had to have this new flower bird garden stamp the minute I saw it! Then I came across a video by Jennifer McGuire showing how she watercolored this image using distress inks- so I was completely inspired by her to create this card. I put my own spin on it using brighter "Springy" colors and some pearlescent paint mixed in with the distress ink (which you can't see at all.....) I used the new classic fabric design as the BG here stamping it using Scattered Straw distress ink. I LOVE my new 2011 Hero Arts stamps!

 

Supplies used:

 

 

Hero Arts stamps CL130, CG270, CG245

Hero Hues "Sea" blue layering paper

Yellow cardstock

Versamark and white detail embossing powder

distress inks in the colors: scattered straw, wild honey, spiced marmalade, barn door, peeled paint, shabby shutters, and broken china

White pearlescent paint by Lumiere

May Arts ribbon
