Floral Frenzy Blog Hop with Scrap N' Stamp Canada!!

Welcome to this month's SNS Blop Hop where the theme is FLORALS!!  What better way to celebrate the arrival of spring than with lots of lovely blooms?!

I love cardmaking with floral images. They are always so much fun to colour, especially watercolour!  For my project today, I didn't use any images. I chose to combine watercolour with die cutting.  

I used the recently released Outside In Stitched Flower along with the Stitched Flower Frame Dies to create my bright and happy card!  I die cut all the pieces out of Bristol Paper and used Spiced Marmalade, Mustard Seed, Crushed Olive, Peeled Paint and Picked Raspberry Distress Inks to add some messy colour.

For the white backdrop panel, I used an embossing folder that gives a corrugated look and simply tore around the edges.

The card base is 5 X 4 inches. I wanted some of the flower and leaves to hang off the edge and still have the card fit into a standard envelope.  The card base is made out of Sticky Note cardstock (also from Lawn Fawn) and is available in the Sherbert Pack. For the sentiment, I used the Simple Wavy Banners Dies along with the Wavy Sayings Stamp Set.  I die cut a banner from the same yellow cardstock as well as white.  I stamped the sentiment on the white banner with Versafine Black Onyx Ink then snipped the ends of the yellow banner and layered them underneath.  

I just love that sweet smiley face with the rosy cheeks!  I added some Nuvo Crystal Glaze to the cheeks for a bit of shine. To finish off the card, I added a some Onyx Black Crystals.
