I’ve created three cards for today’s blog hop.
The first card is featuring Basic Blooms set.

I stamped bunch of flowers from Basic Blooms set in Pocketful of Sunshine, Cherry Blossom and Rock Collection and the leaves in Tropical Forest. I die cut them all using coordinating dies and set them aside.

I adhered Dotted washi tape on a white cardstock panel and cut a side of it in a wavy line. The sentiment from Basic Blooms set was stamped in Jet Black on a white cardbase. I foam mounted the panel with Dotted washi tape on the cardbase and arranged the die cut flower images on the bottom edge of the front panel as shown in the picture. The yellow and pink flowers were adhered using some foam adhesives for more dimension.

I used for the flowers Cotton Candy, Coral Berry, Soft Lilac and Midnight Violet. The little yellow flowers are colored using Warm Sunshine Artist Marker Refill and the leaves in Forest Glades. On large petals I dripped the refill ink directly and for the small areas I used Micro applicators.

The background was colored in Ocean Waves Artist Marker refill. I diluted it with rubbing alcohol to make the color brighter. The sentiment from Everlasting Happiness set was gold heat embossed. The stamp set has some gorgeous sentiments in mixed fonts and sizes. I love them!
The finished panel was adhered flat on a white cardbase and I added some iridescent sequins onto the card and yellow glitter Stickles on the flower centers to finish off this one layer card.

I mounted the background panel on a white cardbase, foam mounted the die cut images on it as shown in the picture and added the sentiment strip. The sentiment is from Ornate Foliage set as well. I white heat embossed it on a strip of black cardstock and matted it with a piece of gold cardstock from New Day Card kit.
