Adding to the Stash!


Hi everyone!  Happy Thursday!

Sometimes I make birthday cards that are specifically for a certain person but it's always good to just stamp a few extras to have on hand.  



The colors of this Craft Consortium paper Ink Drops Candy paper inspired today's iris card, colored with Copic markers in soft traditional colors.  (This is a fun set to color whether you choose traditional or take inspiration from one of the less common varietals).  There is just a hint of diluted copper ink (added with a small paint brush) to add a little sparkle to the blossoms.  


I love using metallic inks with this paper...here I tore a corner from the paper allowing the mat and stamped sentiment to peek through from underneath the torn edge.  The edge of the mat is also trimmed with a slosh of diluted copper ink. 


I used two colors of ribbon, some white tulle, and a tiny paper blossom to bring colors from that beautiful background into the foreground as well.


Here's the inside.  I used white here just to show the difference. (Some people have a hard time reading things that are written on something other than traditional white background with black ink, so I suppose that is something to consider, especially if you have a lot to say!)
