floral bouquet

 Today I have several floral cards to share, made for the show on Hochanda last month -  and one card doesn't have brusho on it!

The first uses the lovely flora musica stamp, stamped with versamark on white card and white embossed before adding brusho powders. The dark brown card background was randomly stamped with the rose part of the image and gold embossed,. and the mats are dark brown and gold. The white base card was 7" square, so you can see that the stamp is a large one.







 The second uses the crackling rose stamp, stamped in black versafine ink and clear embossed, rose covered with masking fluid and then sprinkled with black brusho powder. Once dry, die cut using an oval die and mounted onto a white card blank stamped with the gold embossed sentiment from loving sentiments.
I think this would be a suitable card for a lot of times, when you just need a general cheer-up card....
Crackling rose again for this one , black versafine
 ink and clear embossing powder with masking fluid and brusho, this time torn round the edges before sticking onto a dark blue background embossed with the crackle stamp and white embossed.
the greeting from loving sentiments was stamped and embossed with gold, die cut and edged with more gold EP.
 The final brusho one is again crackling rose, stamped in black and clear embossed before colouring with brusho powders. It was fussy cut out and mounted onto a background using distress oxide inks, with the sentiment in black.
My final card features the floribunda net stamp, and as promised has no brusho!

I stamped with versamark onto craft card, and white embossed it, tore round the edges  and coloured the roses with marker pen, mounted onto black and gold card at an angle onto a base card randomly stamped in wild honey distress ink, with a gold embossed sentiment.
The roses were made from a Tim Holtz die using the same dull gold card used for the mat, with a darker gold for the leaves - this was an 8" square card

  4. These cards are beautiful. You are very clever at placing the brusho inks just where you want them! I haven't used masking fluid for years, so there's something new to think about. Love all of them, but the dark oval on a white card stands out for me. Kate x

  5. Hi Veronica. your cards are lovely, I particularly like the oval one with the navy background.
    For some reason my computer will not let me comment on the C.B. site!
    Best wishes
