Hello there!...I have been working on more cards for Gina K Designs illustrator Melanie Muenchinger's fresh, new stamp set Pressed Flowers.
I have thoroughly enjoyed playing with the Pressed Flowers set so very much...and I know you will too! It's given me a great excuse to spend a lot of time in my little craft corner...and yes...that makes me a very happy girl!
I was browsing some art gallery sites a few days ago and came upon some bright pop art images. Very fun and inspiring! So while I was still on my pop art buzz, I sat and popped (ha-ha) out a card. Okay horrible attempt at a joke! But I hope you like the card. LOL ;D
Here is the card I'd like to share: (click on card for larger view)

This was just a very fun card to do! I was really happy with the results. Here are the details:
This card measures 4 x 9 inches (so it fits in a legal sized envelope).
The base is made of Gina K pure luxury card stock in black. The flower medallions are made from Gina K pure luxury card stock in white.
The stamp sets used are both Gina k Designs and illustrated by Melanie Muenchinger. They are the new Pressed Petals and the sentiment is from Say it with Flowers.
Step one: I drew an outline around the inside front edge of card using a Sakura Jelly Roll pen in white. I left a space for stamping my sentiment.
Step two:For medallions...stamp 3 of the daisies from the Pressed Petals stamp set on white card stock using a VersaMark Dazzle watermark stamp pad. Emboss with clear embossing powder. Use a sponge and gently rub brightly colored ink onto the embossed image. (I used Memento dye inks in tangelo, bahama blue and lilac posies)I used a spellbinder circle to cut my center embossed piece out.
Step three: stamp 3 daisies using contrasting colors(but do not emboss) and cut out with one size larger circle than the previous circles.
Step four: use dimensional foam tape and mount small embossed center flower to large flower circle.
Step five: stamp leaves ( I used Memento dye ink in pear tart.) cut out, arrange and attach leaves then bend tips up slightly.
Thanks for looking!
