Greetings friends. Today I want to share some cards I made using the new Wildflower Field cling stamp. My goal was to stamp and color my image and then cut it up to make several cards.
I started by stamping the wildflowers onto watercolor paper using black Versafine ink:
I let the ink dry completely and then added a light blue wash of color on top using Peerless Watercolor paint:
I let the blue wash dry and then colored the flowers and leaves using watercolor pencils and a blender pen:
All that was left was to cut up the image and make three cards out of the pieces:
Each of my cards used the Chrysanthemum Field embossing folder. The first card also used paper from the Glimmering Gladiola 6″ x 6″ paper pack and some Lavender Bloom cardstock.
The second card added a strip of Powder Blue cardstock to the front.
The final card used patterned paper from the Fuchsia Plaid 6″ x 6″ pack and some Cilantro cardstock.
Here are the final three cards together:
I was pleased with the finished cards. It was nice to color the image as a whole and then see how it looked when I cut it up into pieces. I purposely left sentiments off of the cards so that I have some generic blank cards to use in an emergency. Because they all come from the same stamp, they would also be nice to give as a card set.
Thanks so much for stopping by today!
