Two more of my stamp sets are being released today for Maker Forte! I am super excited. The Flower Cluster stamp set is actually the first ever stamp set I designed for Maker Forte. It’s just that it’s getting released now instead of earlier. I made two cards with this set – both similar but slightly different.
Key Ingredients:
Flower Cluster stamp set
Altenew watercolors and waterbrush
Derwent inktense pencils
Gina K Amalgam ink black (card 1)
Simon Says Stamp Fine Gold embossing powder (card 2)
Card 1:
Steps:
For my first card, I stamped the image with Ginak Amalgam black ink (this is watercolor as well as copic friendly). I made sure to dry this completely before doing anything on top, just in case.
Next I watercolored the image as well as background with Altenew watercolors and waterbrush. For details, I used my inktense pencils and added detailed lines on top.
I stamped the sentiment, added a thin stripe of blue on the left and several clear droplets to finish off my panel.
At the end I simply mounted this panel on an A2 card base using blue craft foam.
Card 2:
Steps:
For this one, I just changed it ever so slightly. I heat embossed using Simon Says Stamp Fine Gold embossing powder, ink blended with matching Altenew pink ink on the left side, added a thin gold washi tape on the side and switched up the gems to matching ones. At the end I simply mounted the finished panel on an A2 card base using pink craft foam.
Hope you like these cards and try something like this. I sincerely appreciate your support of my small business :-)
