Hello everyone! It's almost a new year so I am ending my card making
year with something colorful! I'll be using products from
Even though this stamp set is a 6" x 6", I used it on my mini slimline!
Let me show you how I made my card!
I first stamped out my image and my sentiment and heat embossed them
using Raven Sparkle Embossing Powder. I used Whitewash card stock.
I trimmed out my panel right up to the lines so overall it
measures 2 1/2" x 5 3/8".
I used the Chroma Mists to paint in my flowers. I used 9 colors and had
fun mixing colors that I needed but didn't have. For all of the leaves I
used Noble Fir, Bumblebee Yellow and Ornament gold to give a bit of
shimmer.
For the blue I used Blue Violet and a bit of white.
For the peachy orange I used Candy Apple Red, Yellow Orange
and White. To each of these mixes I also added a bit of Pearl for shimmer.
Later I would add some of my yellow mix over top of the center of
the flower in the upper right corner. Next was my pink - Candy Apple
Red, White and Pearl.
To the pink mix I added some of the Blue Violet to make a
really pretty lavender.
I used a bit of Tinsel Blue and White for a more traditional blue.
and Ornament Gold.
Next I prepared my base. I cut a 6" x 6" square of Whitewash
card stock. To that I added a panel of Cabbage card stock Just
1/8" smaller. Then I backed my painted panel which measures
2 1/2" x 5 3/8" with black card stock with just a bit showing.
For my sentiment I had wanted to make a banner and have it
coming from the right side. It did not look good. So I fussy
cut the banner and it still didn't look good. Finally I cut the
words apart and that worked! For some added sparkle I
used some Silver Prism Sequins. And that finished my card!
I hope you enjoyed today's tutorial. I love the colors and the
sparkle! You can find the products I used for my card at

days head!
