Hello everyone!  Today I'm sharing another beautiful digistamp

Darling Flowers

What is not to love about this gorgeous floral stamp set!  I 

especially love the font used for the "darling".  Let

me show you how I made my card.

I first composed and printed off my image and sentiment onto

Neenah 80lb Classic Crest Solar White card stock.

I wanted to go monochromatic on this one, so I chose my background

paper from My Favorite Things called Bundles of Blossoms Pastels.

Then I chose my colors for my flowers.

I started out cautiously in case the colors weren't right.

It was quite easy coloring as the petals are quite large.

Copic markers used:

Stems/Leaves:  YG91, YG93

Flowers:  YR000, YR00, R02, E04

Centers:  Y21, Y28

I had come to this stage in the coloring and realized that the

colors I had used were really too orange.  The paper was more

of a coral color.  So, I glazed over the petals with RV10.  That

gave just a hint of pink and toned down the yellow/orange.

I had die cut this panel with a fancy rectangle die before coloring.

That way I could lay it on the patterned paper as I went along.

The petals of the flowers looked a bit bare, so I decided to take a

black fine liner pen and add shading lines.

I felt the inked lines made a huge difference and I really liked it

so I did it on all of the flowers.  I added shimmer pen to the centers

of the flowers, and gems scattered around for a little sparkle.

I mounted the colored panel on foam tape and adhered to a white

Top folding A2 size card base onto white I had adhered the patterned

paper.  I rounded all of the corners to coordinate with the die cut.

And that finished my card!

I hope you found my project inspiring today!  I love working with
