This first card is inspired by Jenni Murray and her card for Muse Challenge #212 and the Seize the Birthday Anything Goes option.
The Hero Arts Flower Burst background stamp is heat embossed on a white panel and then inked all over with Tumbled Glass Distress Ink. A little Peacock Feathers Distress Ink was added to the center of the flowers before the embossing was ironed off to leave a matte finish.
This second card is inspired by the sketch for Freshly Made Sketches #284 and the Wednesday Challenge to use Showers and/or Flowers at Simon Says Stamp.
Two Concord & 9th Floral die cuts are adhered to the white panels and an MFT sentiment die is stacked in the center and adhered across the three panels.
Thanks for stopping by,
Jacquie
These are both beautiful, love the designs. Your first card, just love that background stamp, I have those flowers as individual stamps but dont remember seeing this background. Looks so good.
ReplyDeleteTwo great cards, I really love the 1st with the sort of cross hatch effect contrasting with the flowers & your inking is beautiful. Your second it a really smart take of sketch.

Beautiful cards, Jacquie! I love the emboss resist of your first card. The pink and lime of the second card is just delicious!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful cards, Jacquie. Great interpretation of Jenni's Muse card, and the grid-style background really caught my eye.
ReplyDeleteRobyn both of your cards are great but the soft blue one is absolutely gorgeous! Love your use of emboss resist and the scored lines. Thanks so much for sharing with us at Seize the Birthday!
