I'm submitting this card to the following challenges:
- Colour Throwdown - CTD#577
- Fusion Card Challenge - FUSION#0220 - I used the sketch
- Seize the Birthday - STB#181 - Anything Goes
- Happy Little Stampers Watercolour Challenge - HLSWC#01 - I used a die cut
I've decided that this year I really must use more of my older stamps (rather than buying new!!) and I found this beautiful floral pineapple in my stash. I used my MISTI to stamp the image on watercolour paper using amalgam ink. I used my Zig Clean Colour brushes to add colour to the image, once dry I put the image back in the MISTI and restamped in Versafine black ink, added clear embossing powder and heat set it. I cut the image with the co-ordinating die. I cut a panel of shimmery gold vellum as a frame for the lovely image. I finished the front with a fun sentiment from a Gina K set of stamps. I've kept the inside of the card very simple for my message.
That's all for now, see you soon.
