Spellbinders Layered Wildflowers

 Hey cardmaking friends, it's Sandi here and I have a couple of cards to share with you today created with the Spellbinders Layered Wildflowers and Floral Beauties stamp sets.


So I've been noticing a few of my cardmaking friends have been knocking the dust of their Gel Presses and getting busy with them again, and I thought "GREAT IDEA".

So, I dug around and found one of mine.  I also decided to try Distress Oxide Inks for my blend and I just love how they turned out.  It reminds me of a silk screen.




I know we use our Misti's for stamping, but it's also a great place to put your Gel Press, that way you can turn it, pick it up, tip it to make ink run, all kinds of fun things.  I was pretty boring with my print today, I simply added Mowed Lawn and Peacock Feather ink direct from the ink pad.  Blended it with my brayer, and threw a print.  I turned it to vertical for the next card and I didn't even clean it, I just added more ink again and threw a print.

I added these pretty florals stamped in black ink and when that was dry I added white highlights with a Sakura White Gelly Roll #10


The second card is pretty much the same except I used the Mowed Lawn to stamp the stems and leaves.

This is the Layered Wildflowers stamp set, and that large flower has two layers of ink, Worn Lipstick and Picked Raspberry over it.  I love the chalky look and how they blended.  The darker ink on the small florals is Seedless Preserves.

Of course, the Misti also made short work of this layered stamping as I was able to line up the stamps perfectly.

Once all the ink was dry, I splattered both panels with white, green, blue and gold Gansai Tambi watercolors.  I just love a little splatter don't you?

I white heat embossed the sentiment on black for both cards and mounted them on mats that I Glimmer Foiled with the Spellbinders Essential Duo Lines Glimmer Hot Foil Plate.


That's it for me today and below I have listed the products I used.  Affiliate links used where possible, meaning I receive a small commission on any sales at no cost to you.
