Hey everybody! It’s Maria (Cardbomb) here today and I’m wondering if you’ve checked out the Garden Party Release that Tonic Studios launched this past weekend?
If not I hope you’ll check it out because the new stamp sets are amazing.
Today I’ve decided to use the Flora Background set and the Celebrate Sentiments set.
I started by stamping this gorgeous background stamp onto Craft Perfect Ultra Smooth Cardstock with Black Shadow ink.
This is my go to ink because it’s a hybrid ink that works with both water and alcohol based medium.
I painted the first layer of this card with Nuvo Shimmer Powders.
Then I layered watercolour pencils on top of the shimmer powders to add texture and shading.
By using the watercolour pencils this way you can use them dry for a beautiful effect as well.
When I finished coloring, I used my Glitter Gloss Aquaflow Pen to add clear glitter to all of the flowers. You can see the glimmer catching the light on the photo below.
I heat embossed the sentiment and I embellished my card with Indigo Eclipse Dream Drops. Then I mounted it onto a black card base with foam tape for some extra dimension.
Just in case you haven’t seen the new release. I’m going to share two cards I made using different stamp sets from it .
If you’d like to see the blog post where I share more details about these two cards CLICK HERE.
Here’s the second card I made for the release. This one has a video tutorial that shares how to mask a scene and shares tips on colouring with Nuvo Alcohol Markers as well. CLICK HERE TO SEE THE VIDEO TUTORIAL.
