floral delight

Good mornign everyone, today I have two versions of a card using the floral delight stamp from the Chocolate Baroque show last month.

The first was stamped onto black card using versamark ink and gold embossing powder, then painted with some ancient h2o iridescent paints.

Then simply trimmed. aded to a gold mat then onto a 7" square white card blank, leaving room for a sentiment on the right

 The second version was stamped in black versafine ink and clear embossed onto a background of sponged distress oxide inks. The flowers were coloured with pencils. I held  the words from wish flower in my hand and stamped them round the flowers using versamark ink - it didn't matter that some letters didn't stamp as it was more to add interest to the background - and the rubbed a tissue over to remove some of the ink. The card was trimmed , edged by dragging across the black inkpad and added to a 6" square white card blank
