Greetings friends. Welcome to the last day of the summer stamp release blog hop. For the last day, I thought I would share a couple of floral cards:
For my first card, I used the new Cover a Card Background called Peony Pair. I had to trim it down to fit onto a card, but I really like wide open spaces for coloring. I stamped the flowers in black Versafine ink onto 140lb watercolor paper and then painted it with some Peerless watercolor paints. To finish the card, I added words from the same clear stamp set I used yesterday on my "gratitude" card. Can you tell it has become a favorite?
For my second card, I used an image called Wildflowers. The flowers and sun are both part of the same image. Once again, I stamped it onto 140lb watercolor paper with black Versafine ink and painted it with Peerless Watercolors. As a final touch, I added a best friends sentiment.
Finally, this has nothing to do with the new release. I just mailed a REALLY late birthday card and used this sentiment on the envelope:
I love it so much, but I realized I had never shared it with you. I'm sensing a theme that I am late with a lot of things!
