supplies: white cardstock, stripes from Winnie & Walter Stripes and Simon Cupcake Party, Artful Flowers, leaves from Whimsical Flowers, Hero Arts Bubble Gum and Green Hills, Altenew Warm Sunshine, and Wplus9 Lake House inks, Spellbinder's Scalloped Rectangle die, Simon Big Scripty Greetings, moonshine sequins, corner chomper, Signo white gel pen
Just a tip when using different inks on the same stamp, like these stripes and solid flowers, clean your stamp each time before changing colors, and maybe even stamp off the first inking of a new color on a scrap paper first. That way you'll get the true color of each ink coming through with each change of color.
It's a bit on the grey side today and chilly, too, so making this card brought a little spring into my day! Thanks for visiting!

Lin, I love that new header for your blog--Beautiful flowers.
ReplyDeleteWhen I saw the thumbnail for this post, I thought that that was some fabulous spring plaid paper...and to find out you stamped it your self...wow fantastic.
Oh, my goodness, I adore that plaid, Lin! It's absolutely delightful! And it looks so perfect with the SSS Artful Flowers! Love this card! ♥

ReplyDeleteSuch a pretty card. I've not tried making my own plaid yet, but I will. Loving your Springtime floral header. It's bright and cheery.
ReplyDeleteOh, Lin!! This is beautiful, and I love the plaid paper you've "created" with the stripe stamp set! And, oh, you've used one of my favorite flowers too! Love it! Hugs!
