Owl-ways Crafty : Roses Are Like Friends

May 7th, 2021

Hi all, I am back today with a gorgeous and classic looking card for you using the Blooming Marvelous Stamp Set by Crafty Purple

To start with I wanted a sparkley but not blingy look to this card and as I seem to be addicted to the WOW!Clear Hologram Sparkle Embossing Powder I opted for that. I used Sookwang heat resistant doubled sided tape and layed out stripes across my card base, removed the release paper and covered with the embossing powder and heat set it until the magic happend and I was left with sparkly stripes of goodness.

I then proceeded to stamp out the rose from the Blooming Marvelous Stamp Set in Memento Tuxedo Black ink and coloured it in using Spectrum Noir Tri-Blend marker is the dark red blend. I stamped a couple of leaves and coloured them in the same way using the light green blend and then added a few highlights to the rose and leaves in a white gel pen.

Using foam pads or tape I popped up the rose and attached it to the bottom left hand corner of my card and placed the leaves behind it and secured in place with wet glue. I then picked out my sentiment, stamped it out and used the Stitched Nesting Dies from Stampin Up to cut out an elegant shape on white card, this didn't look right on its own so I added a layer of red card behing it to compliment the rose and stuck it flat to the card on the top right. To top the card off I used some bubbles from Little Things from Lucy's Cards.
