Hi!
I'm a little sad with this post, as it is my last as a Guest Designer for Just Add Ink. I've had a great time designing for the blog though, and want to thank the team for having me!
So. The last challenge for April is with Mother's Day in mind: Just Add Flowers. Here's the card I came up with:
My mum is a sewer, and taught me how to sew, so I immediately thought of the Sew Suite stamp set and Sweet Stitches DSP. The card is a larger size than I would normally make, but I didn't want to lose any of the stitching detail on the DSP so I had to go a bit bigger. The finished card is 5 1/4" square.
I stamped the dressmaking form in Stazon ink on a scrap of Window Sheet to give more of a 'true' wire framed look. Then I just clustered the rest of the embellishments on top of the large flower. The smaller flower was coloured using my Melon Mambo marker. I love the way it all turned out.
Stamps: Sew Suite, Trendy Trees
Ink: Chocolate Chip, Regal Rose, Melon Mambo, Stazon.
DSP/Cardstock: Sweet Stitches DSP, Whisper White, Wild Wasabi, Chocolate Chip, Melon Mambo, So Saffron
Other: Big Shot, Sweet Buttons Embosslit, Paper Daisies, Basic Rhinestones, Window Sheet Medium, Word Window L Punch, Modern Label XL Punch, Slot Punch (retired), Paper Snips.
Catch you later,
Tina
