Hello everyone, Kia here with for Team Tuesday. 

When I first started to make cards I did not do any stamping. Misti was not around back then. So, all my cards were done with die cuts, and I filled the card with abundance. So time consuming, but I did enjoy it. For today's card I went back to my roots with a lot of detail and a lot on the card. I used Altenew's Framed, Wild Hibiscus and Beautiful Day for the sentiment. 

I started out by stamping the frame in my mini Misti, then painting with Fantastic Vegas Gold Ink. 

I then painted the rope using Zig Clean Color Brushes in a deep blue, and proceeded to stamp the butterflies on the panel in my original Misti, using Ranger Archival Ink in Manganese Blue.

 Once the butterflies were stamped I added the flower that would be stamped on this panel using Ranger Archival ink in Cobalt. As my original Misti was busy, I stamped the other flowers I wanted to use in my mini Misti, then proceeded to watercolour the flowers, again using Zig Clean Color Brushes.

I attached the framed panel to my card base, then fussy cut the flowers, and styled them slightly before attaching to my card.

It seems that I never decide on my sentiment, or even if I will use one until the end of my card, and Misti makes it possible to add the sentiment whenever you want. I inked up my sentiment using versamark embossing ink, stamped using my mini Misti and heat embossed with gold embossing powder.

 

I hope you enjoy this card today, and thank you for visiting
