Jill here, back again to share a card I made using Kennedy Grace Creation's stamp, Just a Rose.
My idea was to create an elegant card with bold accenting.
I chose to use Stampin' Up!'s black and white striped DS paper as my backdrop for the card's main design layer. I first stamped the rose image on NSW 80# cardstock, then carefully masked over it so that I could white heat emboss the leaf images from Altenew's Floral Shadow stamp. I then blended some Antique Linen and Old Paper Distress Inks onto the cardstock to bring out those leafy images. I then unmasked my rose and proceeded to color it in Copic markers, light yellows and oranges (my favorite color rose). I used a slightly darker/browner orange for the stamens, then swiped some Wink of Stella across them for a little shimmer. I colored the leaves then decided I wanted to frame the flower panel, so I die cut a frame using 2 Stitched Rectangles from Simon Says Stamp from some NSW 110# cardstock. I foam mounted the frame onto the flower panel for some dimension. I then stamped the sentiment from the same KGC stamp set in Versafine Onyx Black pigment ink (the best for really black, detailed images I think). After adhering all the layers together onto #110 NSW card base, I gathered several sequins from KGC's Honey Bee mix and 1 silvery sequin from the Tropical Treasure Mix and randomly placed them into a visually appealing pattern (Hmm, a "random pattern" sounds a bit contradictory, but I think you know what I mean!). **Of note, because I needed a certain amount of the black striping to show, my card dimension is not standard. It ended up being 4.5" x 5.5". Thank you for stopping by and seeing my creation. I hope it gives you some interesting ideas to try out.
Happy crafting!!
