I wanted to play in a couple of challenges which include the colors red, white and blue. Gina K's Monthly Mix Challenge is 'Flag It'- use the colors in a flag. I went with the US flag. The Mod Squad Challenge is to use red, white and blue.
I was inspired by the sketch at Cas(e) This Sketch~
I stamped the jar from Gina K's You Make Me Happy Stamp Set; then, using my MISTI, I stamped the flower from the Wreath Builder Bundle several times in WPlus9's Gala Red ink. To give my bouquet depth, I added a few more flowers, first stamping off one time and then stamping a faded bloom to the bouquet. The MISTI allowed me to get perfect placement of the flower, even after stamping off.
I added a table line with a Micron pen. Copics were used to color the table top and the jar of water.
I also used a Micron pen to add stems and to loosely outline the flower petals. I used a white Gelly Roll pen to add white flower centers. The sentiment, from a Gina K set that I cannot find on the website (it might have been a JunkieFest exclusive), was heat embossed in black ep.
Once I have an image done, I am afraid to do anything with it. This time I took the plunge and die cut it with the Square Peek a Boo die from MFT. The square die cut was adhered to the card base while the negative die cut was popped up on dimensionals then adhered to the card front. A few sequins were added.

Thats it for me! Thanks for stopping by and have a blessed weekend!

ReplyDeleteStunning and simply gorgeous. I love your two generation stamping of the blooms. Certainly adds more depth. Great use of white space - a perfect CAS card. Thanks for joining us at Addicted to Stamps and More!
