Share Handmade Kindness Card

Hello! I’m sharing a somewhat clean and simple card for the A Blog Named Hero Facebook Team.

Supplies:

Floral Doily Bold Print Stamp

HeroFlorals Color Me Flower Cling stamp

Share Handmade Kindness Die

Stamped Just For You stamp

Soft granite Shadow Ink

Gold embossing powder

Pebble card stock

Pitch Black card stock

Polychromos colored pencils: 101, 107, 108, 111, 119, 123, 128, 136, 137, 138

I began with a 4 1/4×5 1/2″ piece of card stock. I stamped the background on it. The I stamped the flower twice each hanging off but one more than the other. I colored the flower by adding white first. Then I used three shades of each color. I added one layer of color with a light hand then did a second layer heavier and then added a white pencil to make a highlight on each petal.

I die cut the sentiment from black and gold card stock and from a scrap piece of cardboard backing. I glued the gold paper and cardboard together then I added the black card stock offset slightly. I stamped and heat embossed the smaller greeting onto black card stock with gold embossing powder. I adhered it flat to the card just under the d and s in kindness. The last thing I did was use a make up brush to add soft granite ink to the edges. I adhered this panel to an A2 card base.
