Hello and happy Friday! I'm sponsoring a challenge over at
The Play Date Cafe this week and this is the card I made for the challenge. There are three of my stamp sets up for grabs to one lucky winner, Whimsical Spring, Celebrate The Season and Little Critters. The challenge colors are baby blue, orange and basil. I used images from Whimsical Spring for my card.
To start, I stamped the flowery branch on Pure Luxury White card stock and colored with Copics, beginning with YR07.
Added YR04.
Filled in with YR000. I got careless about staying in the lines, but I planned to cut out the flowers, so I just went with it.
I colored in the leaves with YG03.
Then added a bit of shading with YG25.
I cut an oval from white card stock, using Spellbinders Classic Ovals die templates, then sponged with Memento Summer Sky ink, while still in the die.
Sponged very lightly with Memento Danube Blue.
Then sponged Memento Bamboo Leaves.
I stamped the brand on my background and colored in the limb with E57.
I cut out the flowers and leaves from my colored image and adhered them to the background using Pop Dots.
Stamped a silhouette branch on Pure Luxury Creme De Menthe card stock, using Memento New Sprout.
I layered with Pure Luxury Sweet Mango and used a Pure Luxury White card base. The pattern paper is called Winter Wonderland from Gina K Designs. I stamped the sentiment on white and cut it out with Spellbinders Petite Oval Nestabilities die template, and added self adhesive pearls to the flower centers.
Thanks for stopping by. I hope you have a wonderful weekend!

Excellent Copic Colouring.
This is outstanding, Theresa! I'm glad you gave a step by step with photos; it really shows off how much work went into this creation. It has such a 3D depth, between the shading and the coloring/trimming.
