(Scroll down to see my Stamp Simply New Release post!)
Good morning! We're halfway through the birthday celebration at The Flower Challenge and I am here today with more inspiration and an invitation to join us!
Today I am featuring FOREVER LOVE by Visible Image Stamps. This is a perfect wedding card or valentine using non-traditional colors. I created a Distress Oxide background, and then embossed the rose, barbed wire, and sentiments using WOW! Embossing Powder (In the Navy). I painted the inside of the bloom with watercolor markers. To finish, a few coordinating gems were added for shine, and Delicata Gold ink was pounced in various places for added shimmer.
I love the way the Navy EP has a deep color, but isn't black! The mat is Antique Gold from CutCardStock, with a Black cardstock base.
Our challenge is open until October 25, and I hope you will join us! Be sure to wish Aileen and Viv a Happy Retirement from 7 years of challenges! That's dedication! Find all the details and more amazing inspiration from the DT HERE.
Beautiful background with shades of blue. Gorgeous blooms ... I have coloured embossing powders but never seem to reach for them. The navy embossing looks fantastic. Great watercolouring Judy!

ReplyDeleteThis is stunning, Judy! I do love the deep navy embossing and the wonderful mix of colors. Beautiful!
ReplyDeleteIt looks like that rose is springing up from the depths of a pool, Judy. Very artsy and creative.
