Hi All, welcome to today's blog post. I love the touch of gold on cards whether it be gold embossing powder, gold paper, sequins ribbon or card stock. A little touch of it always make your cards look elegant. 

 

For today's card set I have used a designer series paper that has a gold embossed lace pattern on it. To keep the gold touch through out the card I have used gold embossing powder for the Cherry Blossom stampset which has been heat set on watercolour paper.  I have coloured the images with my ZIG Clean Color Real Brush markers. 

The sentiment used for the cards is from the Spring Bouquet stampset. The thank you script font from this set is just elegant. The cards itself has been created rather simple. I hope you like today's creation. 

Isn't the Easter Bunnies just sooooo cute! 

Hi All, I have kept today's card sweet and simple. 

I have stamped the Cherry Blossom stampset with Hero Arts White Unicorn Pigment ink. To keep the colour subtle I have used the Fabre - Castell light flesh #132 water colour pencil where I picked up the colour direct from the pencil onto the aqua painter brush brushing it on the image.  To highlight the centre of the cherry blossom I have re-drawn with a white gel pen.

The sentiment is from the same stampset where there are some gorgeous verses to add to your paper crafting projects which has been stamped with Onyx Black ink in whisper white cardstock then punched out. 

Using the same punch I punched out blushing bride cardstock which I cut in half and place behind the white cardstock sentiment.  Behind the punch out I have used chevron ribbon and vellum in a banner cutout to add as a feature behind the sentiment.

To add some more colour to the Kraft card base I placed a strip of designer paper on the left hand side finishing off the card completely.

I started on a white cardstock mat as my working piece where I repeatedly stamped the butterfly image from  the Inspired By Stamping "Butterflies"stampset with the Platinum pigment Dew Drop ink then heat embossed with clear embossing powder over the top to create an embossed resist background to work on.

To colour the background I have used No 50 from Zig Kuretake Gansai Tambi Watercolours as a wash around the butterflies.

For the sentiment I have used this months FREE stampset of the month "Wishing You"which has been stamped with Onyx Black Versafine Ink.

To finish off embellishing the card I added a strip of chevron washi tape on the left hand side.
