Hi friends! Today I'm joining Ellen Hutson to celebrate her February Stamp and Die release! There is a lot of variety in this release, but my favorite, probably because I love making feminine styled cards, is this stamp set, the Mondo Gerbera Daisy Stamp and Die set.
Not only is the flower part of the stamp set pretty, but the greetings are adorable too!
SUPPLY LIST:
Stamp & Die Combo: Mondo Gerbera Daisy Stamp and Die by Ellen Hutson
Inks: Emboss it Clear Embossing ink by Ranger, Coffee Archival ink by Ranger
Embossing Powder: White by Ranger
Copic Markers: Y11, Y13, Y15, YR61, YR23, G24
Patterned paper: Tiny Checks Bright by My Favorite Things (if that's out of stock, this one is the identical pattern, and has a similar yellow)
Cardstock: Solar White by Neenah, Desert Storm by Neenah
Other: 3D Foam adhesive, Heat embossing tool, MISTI Stamp positioner (large or small, either will work for cards)
For both this card, and the sample below, I added color to the flowers using the Faux Watercolor Technique with Copic markers on the backside of vellum. Here's a video tutorial I made a few years ago that features this technique. While this tutorial uses the Mondo Hydrangea Stamp & Die set instead of the Mondo Gerbera Daisy one, the technique itself is identical.
Finally, in addition to the Mondo Gerbera Stamp/Die combo, the next card also showcases the brand new Big Scripty Hello Die. For this one I die cut the greeting out of cardstock, then after gluing it in place on top of the flower, I applied Glossy Accents following the shape of the die cut so that it now looks like a puffy sticker. It's a simple technique, but adds subtle dimension to the card front, which I love.
