Hello! I'm stopping by with a card using some of the NEW Smitten Release from Simon Says Stamp. This card was the result of a late night/couldn't sleep craft session - ever have those times when you just gotta get up and do something? I find making a card often helps me unwind and relax enough to finally sleep!
For this card, I stamped all the fun florals from the new Flower Love on white cardstock, and heat embossed with clear embossing powder. I've found with emboss resist, I prefer using clear instead of white, because it shows the color of the white cardstock underneath, and doesn't absorb the color of the ink as much, so it seems to feel like it stays more crisp and white to me! I ink blended in a fun rainbow of bright colors, and then fussy cut the images out (there are coordinating dies, I just didn't have them - hence the fussy cutting choice!). I heat embossed a sentiment from the same stamp set in white on black cardstock and trimmed that into a rectangle. Then I just arranged everything on my card front, adhering the sentiment with foam adhesive, and the flowers with liquid glue in the centers, curling up the edges for dimension. I rounded one corner for interest, then finished off with a few Clear Drops: Ice to add some sparkle and shine! Here are some more photos of this card:
