Hello everyone! Today I'm sharing another gorgeous card from
Joy Clair Designs
First of All
with another gorgeous digital stamp from the Summerlicious Release ! This has the loveliest Lotus flower image! Let me show you how I created my card today! I started by first choosing my background paper which was rather putty gray flower pattern. Then I chose a coordinating plain card stock close to that gray. It was on this plain card stock that I printed off my lotus flower and sentiment.
I Google-imaged a lotus flower to get my colors right. I decided to go with the very deep pink one at the base that tips in white.
I colored a few petals to make sure I was on the right track with my colors.
I was pleased how this was looks. The tips needed to be whiter so I used a white colored pencil. This really helped. For Copic colors I used: RV00, RV02, RV04, RV06, RV17, RV69, Y02, Y17 & Y38. After I finished the coloring, I fussy cut the image right up to the line and then went along the edge with a black water-base marker.
I prepared an A2 white card base. I covered it with the patterned paper. I took a panel of the gray card stock and and embossed it with a 3D embossing folder. Using a die set, I cut a larger panel with the biggest die and the sentiment with the smallest die in that set.
I adhered the embossed panel with liquid adhesive to the base. Then I added the bigger die cut with foam panel. I adhered the lotus flower and the sentiment flat on top of that. I added a clear pink heart to the sentiment, a few tiny dew drops to the flower and shimmer pen to the flower center.
This was not a complicated card and it came out so pretty! I already have someone in mind to send it to! You can find this gorgeous digital stamp set at
