Heartfelt card


I decided to share a simple and fun card today. This stamp set, Heartfelt Thanks, is designed for watercolors! I misted the stamp lightly then colored on the rubber with a Rose Red watercolor crayon for the blossom and Garden Green for the stem and leaves. Then I misted the stamp very lightly again and stamped on my paper. When it was dry I colored on the coordinating outline stamp with markers and stamped over the image again.
The background of the white card is the large scroll image from Baroque Motifs. It is stamped in VersaMark. I added the sentiment "heartfelt" in Pomegranate ink just under the area where the focal point would be placed. Next, I distressed the edges of the flower card with the distressing tool in the cutter kit and layered it on a piece of Purely Pomegranate card stock. Small silver brads were added to the corners and a little loop of Pomegranate double-stitched ribbon was attached behind the card. This card was inspired by a similar layout by Stampin Kub. Hope you like it!
