Hey Everyone

Happy Sunday Everyone!

I have had a great day chatting to crafty friends as well as creating cards for challenges. The challenge I’ve created this card for is the colour challenge at Global Design Project. Their challenge this week is a colour challenge. I really love this combo they have chosen.

I had yet to ink up the Soft Seedlings Stamp Set, so this was rectified for todays card.

I inked up the leaf image with Pumpkin Pie Ink on Fluid 100 Watercolour Paper. I then took an Aqua Painter and moved the Pumpkin Pie Ink to create a weather leaf. I then took some Night of Navy Ink and very lightly added shading to the leaf. Once I was happy with the amount of ink I had applied, I stamped up a second one. Both images were fussy cut out.

I then stamped up the single small leaf in this set and applied the same technique of moving the ink around and adding shading. These were fussy cut out also.

The Basic White Cardstock in the background was shaded with a Blending Brush, an Artistic Mix Decorative Mask and Balmy Blue Ink. To add a little more detail to the background, I took the Dark Night of Navy Blend and flicked splatters to the shaded area.

I like a realistic look to my leaves, so I have crushed the cardstock in places and bunched up parts of the leaves and adhered them to keep their crushed look.

Thanks for stopping by.

Cheers
