So what do you do when your awake at 4.30am ? yeah sensible people turn back over and try sleep right ?... not the avid crafter. I hold my hands up if im not crafting I am thinking about it and on the rare occasion I do sleep ...I dream about it. Im a lost cause for sure. So this card is simply to say "HELLO" we dont need a reason to send cards and I sure dont need a good reason to make them !
So this morning, at silly o'clock, I created this pretty card, I wanted it to be simple yet striking. I think the colour choices pretty much make this card stand out. The vivid Granny apple green and vibrant Calypso coral are just made for each other, the colours totaly make the card.
I added extra touches to the beautiful stamped image using just a few irridescent sequins...furtively hunting out shades that match, squinting in the early morning light and sipping coffee to try function ! I use my take your pick tool now with the gummy end it realy does help. I also decided to give my card a DOTTY border which mimicks the dotty suround of the circular fram in theis Floral Frames stamp.
I did manage despite the early hour to carefully colour my image using blender pens. I transfer ink on to a small clear block to use as my palett. I think I did well to stay inside the lines to be fair. I stamped a second flower image which I then fussy cut .... heavens knows why because I have the dies !!! This was coloured and popped up on dimensionals.
Not bad for an insomniac .... I do hope you like this card and will give it a try. No video for this one its a " blog exclusive".. that me trying to sound like a real blogger ! Im away now to get more coffee because... ya know ...that will help me sleep tonight .........
Have an outstanding day whatever your doing ...
Happy Stamping xx Amanda
