SSS Be Bold, Crocus Row

 *This post contains affiliate links to Simon Says Stamp.


Hi friends, today I'm sharing a card created using several different mediums.  I suppose you could call it mixed media, but for me somehow if you don't use paint, it doesn't count.

Anyway, I started by embossing a panel of Neenah Solar White cardstock using the Crocus Row embossing folder.

I then colored the flowers and greens using Copics.  I used V12, V15, V17, and BV11 for the flowers, and G24 and G28 for the greenery.

I then went in with several Prismacolor pencils to add a bit more texture and detail.


Once that was done, I used a brayer to add ink to my embossing folder, using Morning for the sky and Pearfection for the grass.  The embossed/colored panel was then carefully placed back into the embossing folder and I ran it through my die cutting machine again to color the background portions of the panel.

I wanted a little more texture in the grassy areas, so I used the brayer to add a bit more color to the those sections.

A sentiment from the Dreamy Leaves set was added to complete the card.

This was a fun one to create, I hadn't had my pencils or a brayer out in a while and it was fun to just play and experiment a little.

Hope you like it, have a great day!
