Hi Everyone, my DT card today is for We Love Stamping. This month, we would love to see your cards with the theme Feminine.
I saw a colour combination, that had me wanting to use it, so here it is. I had a looky through my stamps for something feminine, what's more feminine than flowers? So I included them, in the design that I thought would be better on a DL card.
Next, I blended the colours with DO's on a piece of card to layer on the base card. The sentiments were then stamped, I decided to make the shine sentiment be white with sparkle, but it ruined the clarity. I stamped it again with Stazon on top of the white glitter, it worked, giving the black a glow outside the letters. A save, thankfully.
I stamped the bulbs and flowers, then fussy cut them out ugh! (you know I hate fussy cutting). I coloured them in matching DI's. They were added to the blended card and I drew a line to "hang" them onto the white sentiment.
I was colouring the stamps, when I accidentally dropped water onto the background, so I just added more.

A lovely blended background Faith and I always think a DL card looks so elegant, add flowers and perfect for a lady.

Your DT card for We Love Stamping is absolutely stunning! The feminine theme shines through beautifully with the floral design and soft color palette. Despite the challenges you faced with the sentiments, the end result is fantastic, especially with the added touch of sparkle. Your attention to detail and creativity truly make this card a standout!
