JustRite Stampers is introducing some pretty new floral stamps for Spring this week! I know, winter is barely arriving down here in the southern part of the U.S. where I live, but the papercrafting industry is always a few steps ahead! So I hope this pretty Dahlia brings a little sunshine to your day, wherever you are!
I stamped the Dahlia flower (one of 3 different floral centers in this set) onto solid pink Basic Grey paper and then did a little shading with my Copic markers (colors are listed below).
COPIC TIP: This is an easy way to get color to a large amount of space quickly and easily (stamping on colored paper), but still make it look like you made a lot of effort in coloring!
The flower was cut out and popped up with foam tape over another solid die cut circle of BG paper, which was all layered into the center of the scroll border that I stamped with cocoa ink onto Neenah Natural White cardstock. The edges of the border were sponged with Corduroy Distress Ink and pink Zva crystals added to the centers of the scroll work.
The "Thinking of you" sentiment center was stamped without a border directly onto the lower right card front. Coordinating Basic Grey patterned paper was die cut with a Spellbinders scalloped border die and threaded with ribbon. The card measures 4.25" wide x 6" tall.
