Here is the card I made...
  
I  made a really cute missing you card! I love the really soft pastel colors in the inspiration photo and just new I wanted to do some ink blending for my focal image background using some distress inks and that is exactly what I did. 
 
 
 
I cut the design paper using the new Fancy Frames dies for the pink scalloped layer and the polka dotted layer as well as the top layer. 
 
I stamped the panda from the Panda Pals Stamp set on watercolor paper using versafine ink and heat embossed it with clear embossing powder.  I colored in the panda with Tombow watercolor markers. For the smallest inked piece I used Spun Sugar and Cracked Pistachio distress inks for soft background piece.  I stamped both of the greetings from the same stamp set as well. I wrapped the pink and white bakers twine before tying a bow at the top and sprinkled some pastel dots to pull it all together. 
 
 
 
Here are the CDD products I used:

 
 
 


Love and Laughter,

One Layered Card - Featuring Kennedy Grace Creations: Time To Blossom

Hey folks! I'm back to share a card from the Kennedy Grace Creations New Release! The stamp set I used today is the Time To Blossom Stamp Set . I really enjoyed the simplicity of this set. You could totally heat emboss this and do some fabulous watercoloring, but Copic's seems to be the way to go for me lately so that's what I did. I started by stamping the image twice on my card panel. The only masking I did was a tiny bit on the stem. The name of the game was to keep this super simple folks. As I said, I colored the images with Copic's. Another thing I enjoy about the Time To Blossom Stamp Set is that you could choose any colors you wanted. I chose red-violets and yellow-greens, but seriously peeps, whatever floats your boat and it will looks great! To finish off my card, I used a added a couple of hand drawn lines to the background and I stamped a portion of a stamp that is also in the Time To Blossom Stamp Set . That's it! Easy peasy. T
