Oriental Lily all in Pink

Here's a new card from one of my favourite images on the Cartes postal Stamps sheet. It also uses some of the new blooms so it really serves two purposes as it let me be creative on two fronts.



To make this card you will need:
1 pink base card 140mm x 140mm
Some green patterned paper
Length of pink dotty ribbon
Blooms from the Romance Collection
Inspirational Sayings Unmounted rubber stamp
Cartes Postal Unmounted rubber stamp
2 buttons
Tut Art and Graphic pens in colours: 57, 202, 305
Waterbrush
Stazon in Stone Grey
3D foam pads
Glue

What you need to do
Use the Stazon to stamp out the oriental lily image.
Colour up the image with a waterbrush and the Tut Art and Graphic pens in colours: 57, 202, 305
Trim the image
Stick a piece of green paper across the card and then stick the pink spotty ribbon onto the card as shown.
Use the foam pads to attach the image to the card and then use glue and foam pads to layer the flowers of your choice to the card.
Add a button to the centre of the bloom.
Adhere a larger button to the card, as shown, and stamp your message on to the card.
Happy crafting,
Yvonne

I've decided to use the Oriental Splendour ATC sheet of stamps from The Merry Stamper today as it's been used by Cath Wilson in a Craft Stamper feature for the February edition. This card uses the same sheets that Cath used so you can do other things with your stamps.



I have made my card up as a 'Thank You' card as I also wanted to submit it in the Daring Cardmakers 'Give Thanks' challenge.
If you want to make this card, you will need.
Oriental Splendour ATC sheet of stamps
Oriental Half Plate
Base card in white linen finish
'Thank you' stamp from the Inspirational Sayings from I Brake for Stamps
Pink paper flower
Pink grosgrain ribbon with spots
3 buttons
Stazon in Stone Grey
Art and Graphic pens to colour the image.
Pink card to mount the image and the the background strip.
