dream petals

 For my second batch of samples from the Chocolate Baroque shows in April on Create and Craft I have used stamps from gerbera and friends and dream petals as the main images

The first two are very similar, both using  backing sheets coloured with brusho powders sprayed with water. A separate sheet of card was coloured using green, turquoise and purple powders and the flower from dream petals was stamped 5 times in black versafine ink and fussy cut out. 

I chose 3 flowers to mount onto the bluey background which was trimmed to fit an 8" square card blank and edged with black by dragging across the ink pad before gluing on.

The greeny one was trimmed to fit a 7" square card blank and edged by using an alcohol marker pen in green before adding the 2 remaining flowers.

This one took a bit longer to do -  The flower was stamped first in black versafine ink and clear embossed  befoe painting with ko-i-nor water colour paints. The sentiment comes from be at peace. I then brushed distress ink around the flower, and added  random parts of the lattice stamp to add texture. I also used several worker stamps from older sets to add interest to the background.

 

The last one used the sunflowers stamped in bl;ack versafine ink onto a scrap of  leftover card with an inky splodgy background which I trimmed right down and edged with black ink before mounting on a white card blank. The sentiment was stamped in black in the corner to finish
