And this is my card:

********************************************************************************************************************

And this is my new card for my favorite Company Heartfelt Creations. Just click here to visit Heartfelt Creations stamps store and look at these gorgeous images and New Dies.

I stamped the image "Raspberries" using Brilliance Graphite Black ink, then colored with my Prismacolor pencils and blended the colors with Odorless Mineral Spirits and sponged around with Yellow and Orange (Adirondack) craft inks. For frame, I used "Joys of the Season" Cricut cartridge and embossing folder "Swiss Dots" from Cuttlebug. Then, I stamped the sentiment "With Love", cut out with a "Fansy Tags" Nestabilities die and sponged around with craft ink. To finish the card, I added some Gemstones, Clear Stickles and piercings.

Have a wonderful Weekend! ~Olena~

Inspirational Card Sketches DT # 14

Happy Tuesday Everyone!!! It is time for New Inspirational Card Sketch!!!! This week Dawn is hosting the ICS #14. Here is the card I made using the Sketch this week. (Now you can turn it, flip it, stretch it and rotate it).

In this card, I used the brayer technique for the background on the main image, then stamped the wild flowers ("Silhouettes" from Inque Boutique) over the top using Graphite black (Brilliance) craft ink. All of this is stamped on Glossy White cardstock (I've found that works best for the brayer technique). The base ink is from a Big and Juicy pad -"Foliage".

For sentiment "Happy Mother's Day" I used dollarstamp set from Studio G.




















To finish the card, I added some Ribbon, brads, Gemstones, flowers, Cuttlebug die (Sweet Dots) and Piercings.
RECIPE: Stamps: "Silhouettes" (Inque Boutique) and sentiment (Studio G); Papers: DK.Brown and cream c.s.; Patterned paper. Inks: Graphite black (Brilliance), Jumbo Java (VersaMagic), Latte (Adirondack), Foliage (Big and Juicy pad)Accessories: Ribbon, Flowers, brads, gemstones, embossing folder (Sweet Dots), foam tape; Tools: Cuttlebug, Flowers punch, paper piercer.
