Hello and welcome
Today it’s time for the next challenge over at Watercooler Wednesday! This week it is Karen’s Challenge: All About Occasions.
This week’s card features Hero Arts stamps.
To start, Hero Florals Rose Stem was randomly stamped on card in Distress Ink and added around the edges, before adding it to the card front.
It was then silver heat embossed, watercoloured in the same colour and fussy cut.
2 Circles were cut from white card using SSS Stitched dies. The smallest was coloured with a cheap alcohol marker in the same colour and then the sentiment from the HA stamp set was white heat embossed.
On a strip of vellum, Hero Arts – Sunburst Bold Prints was silver heat embossed.
This strip was then added to the front. The large circle was then added with raised tape, then the rose (raised tape again) and finally the small blue circle with a slither cut from the edge so it matches the card front.
I was so pleased with this card. I just love the blue!
Don’t forget to head over to our blog to check out the wonderful inspiration from the rest of our Design Team.
I look forward to seeing what you create this week!
Thanks so much for taking the time to visit. I love to read your comments.
Stay safe in these difficult times and have a good day
Cheers
Helen
