Hello for Monday Mood Board
It's been a little bit crazy around here with last week's big happenings, so I wanted to just make a card for fun tonight. I love the current Mood Board at WPlus9, so I thought I would break out some of my newest goodies and play along.
I've been wanting to get Fresh Cut Florals for a while now, and I am seriously in love with this set! I die cut a bunch of pieces and played around with some different colors/combinations. It takes a little practice and experimentation, this is my first multi-step floral stamp, so I'm learning along the way.
I loved the water color pieces in the mood board and used some gelatos to achieve a similar effect on that panel smoothing the colors out with a damp baby wipe. Once it was dry I stamped the sentiment and then placed the flowers. It looks like two pinks, but it's really my Sorbet ink in first and second generation. I also used Honey and Creme Brulee for the flowers. For the branches I used Sweet Leaf ink rocked and rolled in Topiary.
The Pink Lemonade Lawn Trimmings was the perfect way to finish it off!
So in love with this set, can't wait to play some more!
Hope you are having a wonderful evening! Remember you have until midnight to comment here to win my new stamp set!
