This week’s challenge at Less is More is to CASE this card:
I loved the blue flower and used it for my inspiration. I turned the card around so that it’s vertical rather than horizontal since the flower I chose is a tall one from Altenew’s “Beautiful Lady” set, a set I’ve owned for quite some time, and never used. Not sure why since I do like it a lot.
I embossed the image in black and then watercolored it with my Gansai Tambi watercolors. The original card had a die cut sentiment cut from silver glitter. It’s hard to see in the photograph but I added silver dots to the tops of the stamens in the stamped image. I didn’t think a silver sentiment (also from “Beautiful Lady”) would be as attractive on this card as the black embossed one.
I die cut the watercolored image with a WPlus9 stitched rectangle from their “Gift Card Layers” set and adhered it to a white card. It doesn’t get a lot more CAS than this, and I’m very happy with it.
A perfect CASE. I really like the stamp & the blue is lovely. I especially like how you have coloured the centre of the flower leaving the edges of each petal white/pale. I agree the sentiment stamped in black is the way to go.
Such a pretty card! Thanks for sharing at Less is More!
This card is right up my street. Lovely crisp stamping, lots of white space and beautifully coloured.
Thanks so much for sharing with us at Less is More, Anita x
