I just looked to see when the last post I placed on this blog and had to do a double take because I can't believe it has been since November of 2017. Goodness, where has the time gone. I am still struggling with finding the desire to create, but have to come understand that it's going to happen when it happens and will keep making cards as I need them and just pray that it will come back full force one day soon.
My sister-in-law is celebrating her birthday today and wanted to make a very special birthday card for her and knew the Rose Bouquet image from a Gina K Designs stamp set would be perfect. Even though I haven't created much, I have been doing so water coloring as I watch TV with Jim and Patrick in the evening because I am really enjoying the color aspect of creating so that hasn't gone away, thanks goodness.
I took the rose image and stamped it onto the card base before I placed the final panel onto the card and then took the same image and heat embossed the Hero Arts white embossing powder in the lower left corner. I then use the Zig Clean Color real brushes and water colored them in. The happy die cut was done by taking the ink and gradient them as shown to match the colors of my roses and I cut out 3 white pieces to put together to give them a little dimension. I also took some pumice stone ink and lightly blended it onto the rose image to give it a soft aspect.
I hope you are all doing well and will enjoy this card.
Thanks
Janet
