The Card Concept #54 {Spring Flowers} & Muse #164

Today, I have two cards to share.

The first one is a Clean & Simple card to share that I made

for The Card Concept #54 {Spring Flowers}:

  

I just love this beautiful image!

I decided to use my Ellen Hutson Mondo Hydrangea stamp set to create my card.

I started by stamping my hydrangeas two different shades of Altenew Ink: Lavender Fields & Midnight Violet.

Then, using my MISTI, I stamped them in the same spot again in versamark and heat embossed them in clear.

I did a little masking and then stamped the leaves, using the same technique, but with Altenew Forest Glades.

 Then, I used my Zig Markers, a paintbrush and some water to colour in my flowers.

I coloured with a Zig marker onto my acrylic block, added water and using a paintbrush,

added colour to a strip of Crate Paper text patterned paper.

Once it was dry, I adhered it behind my panel.

The sentiment is from Altenew's Best Mom, which I stamped on a piece of black

cardstock and heat embossed in white.

A few rainstones finish it off.

My second card is for the Muse Card Challenge #164:

I was immediately inspired by Michele's beautiful card.

I stamped the watering can and tools using PTI's Garden Variety

and filled the watering can with Wplus9 Fresh Cut Florals.

I decided to use my new PTI Inspired Faith stamps to stamp the sentiment.

I had a bit of a smudge on my cardstock, so I added a PTI Colour Pop Butterfly

to cover it up.

Thanks for looking!
