Hello everyone! TodayI'm sharing this beautiful image from the
This set is so pretty. I particularly love the softness of this image! Let me show you how I made my card. As always with a digital image, I first size my main image to where I think it's going to fit my card panel. I stamped my sentiment (which I ended up not using) away from the image so it could be cut separately. I printed this out onto Neenah Desert Storm card stock.
I die cut both the main image and the sentiment. I already had my background paper chosen, so I was color matching as I went along. I chose Copic colors that would look good against the background paper while taking into account I was not coloring on white paper.
For Copic colors I used: R81, R85, RV34 E98, E95, E04, E43, E71, E15, E08, YG67, YG91, G82, G94. I didn't feel the need to color every single bit of this image. I felt the color of the card stock did a lot of that work for me. I did use a white charcoal pencil for some highlights. Next I built the base of my A2 size side folding card base. I used the same Neenah card stock for the base, then I used a dark brown for a narrow frame around the flowered background panel. I also used a brown ink to soften the edges of the stamped oval. After these were adhered together I was ready to assemble my card.
I used foam tape to adhered the stamped oval. I added pearls to the top and some on the bottom. I used a copper brown silk ribbon for my bow. Try as I might, I could not get the sentiment to work with my design so I decided to leave it off. I added a tiny butterfly to the flowers and that finished my beautiful card project for today!
