Good morning everyone! Today we have a new CUTplorations challenge for you. And the inspiration photo is super stunning; check it out!
I decided to use my Distress Inks and Trendy Spring Blooms stamps to recreate the cue image. I used Peacock Feathers, Wild Honey, Blueprint Sketch and Picked Raspberry for the stamping. Then I added a soft wash of Squeezed Lemonade, Blueprint Sketch and Candied Apple to the edges of the heart die cut.
Then I ink blended two panels: one with cool colors, and another one with warm colors, and die cut some floral shapes using Trendy Spring Blooms Dies.
This sentiment is from Fond Expressions 2 and is stamped with VersaFine Clair Nocturne ink.
For a finishing touch, I've adhered vellum to the back of my die cuts to make them stand out from the busy background. You'll also notice that I added a touch of shine using the Sheer Shimmer Stix in Sparkle.
I hope you'll love this challenge and feel as inspired as I did. Thanks so much for stopping by and have a wonderful day!
Lovely mix of stamped and die cut blooms to make your heart. :)
