101st post...... A little flowery....
I've only just realised that yesterday was my 100th daily post since starting posting a creation a day just before Christmas. When I started I wasn't sure if I could keep up with the schedule... but apart from the odd days (fortunately I have a large archive of stuff I've made and I can dip into on an emergency!)... and I've found it a pleasure to keep up with. Even better, the shop now looks so much brighter with a new supply of samples to inspire too!
Today's creation is another play with my Chocolate Baroque stamps for their colour challenge. The background is Cosmic Shimmer Misters - Pastel Chalk Yellow, Mango Blaze and Golden Mint. I've added some dot details using Distress Ink Ripe Persimmon through a mask.
The words are from Chocolate Baroque Artistic Affirmations. I'm not sure which set the flower is from - but I've stamped out onto the same background and added some shaded with the ripe persimmon. I added some white gel highlights to the middle flower and then a large gemstone on the top (these are lovely - a new larger gemstone size we've just got in stock). The swirl in the background is actually the flower swirl stamp from Chocolate Baroque Butterfly Flourish Swirls set.
I'm not a big one for adding flowers to my cards - but really liked the finished simplicity of this one - hope you do to!
happy crafting
