Hydrangeas

I seem to be on a roll lately and the cards are coming thick and fast. This is today's effort and I have to say that I am quite happy with it.


To make it:
1. You colour the hydrangea stamps with the Art and Graphic Pens from Kuretake and you stamped it twice, colouring up between stamping.

2. You then used the H2O water brush to move the paint a little and added some extra colour where you think that the shadows should be.
3. Cut the images out and then got on with the rest of the card.
4. Cut a base card 10.5cm x 28cm. Score this at the 14cm point to make a card 10.5cm x 14cm when folded.
5. Cut a piece of pink card and scored it and then cut it to fit over the join in the base card.
6. Stamp the message, which is from the Inspirational sayings plate, on a piece of card and cut it out to leavea a small border. Mounted this on to a piece of pink card. This is then stuck to the base card.
7. Stick the hydrangea images slightly overlapping on to the card with a mixture of adhesive and foam pade. The adhesive was for the bottom hydrangea and the foam pads for the upper image.
Decorate the lower part of the card with a broken line of green. One of the greens that was used on the stamp.
