Once again our theme is “Love”.

Warning – you may need sunnies!

My card is one I’ve sort of been working on for a couple of days not knowing how to finish it or where to go & just sitting on my desk. Does that ever happen to you? Sunshine-Wishes---Inside

The background has been created by wetting a piece of Shimmery White CS with an Aqua Painter & then adding Bermuda Bay & Daffodil Delight Re-Inkers, still with a wet Aqua Painter. I love watching the colours flow.

The heart is from the Sunshine Wishes Thinlits,while the flowers are from Jar of Love while the sentiment is from Beautiful Bouquet Stamp Set.

Roll call for this hops –

Today I am taking part in an Anniversary Blog Hop happening over at Global Stamping Friends which is a group of Demonstrators from all around the world. We are celebrating 12 months since the group started & boy has it grown!

For the special Anniversary Hop our theme is ANNIVERSARY of course!

I was so undecided as to what I was going to use & how to create my card that I ended up totally confused, so I decided to keep it simple with lots of white.

The past week or so I have been experimenting with my inks & stamps, trying new ways of stamping & colouring. My image was inspired by a card sitting on my desk which I will share with you sometime in the future once it has been finished.

My image is from the “Floral Phrases” Stamp Set which was inked using Pink Pirouette & Pear Pizzazz Stampin’ Write Markers & stamped direct onto a piece of Whisper White CS. I then grabbed my Flirty Flamingo Stampin’ Write Marker, scribbled colour onto a Block & picking up small amounts of colour at a time with a Blender Pen, coloured over areas of the Pink Pirouette. I repeated the same technique for the leaves using Wild Wasabi Ink. I think it brings the flower to life.

Floral-Phrases---Inside The flower was die cut with the oval shape from the Stitched Shape Framelits by running through the Big Shot. As I wanted my card to be mostly all white, I decided to add a small scallop Whisper White frame behind the oval so I die cut another piece of Whisper White CS using the Layering Ovals Framelits & running through the Big Shot. This piece was adhered to the stamped oval.

I embossed a piece of Whisper White CS with the Softly Falling EF before layering onto the Base Card – Flirty Flamingo. The oval shape was adhered to the Card Front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

The sentiment is from the “Beautiful Bouquet” Stamp Set. I thought it suited the card & blog hop perfectly. It was stamped onto scrap Whisper White CS in Flirty Flamingo, cut each end into a Banner Shape & adhered to the bottom of the flower with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

I do hope you have enjoyed my card. Be sure to check out all the other wonderful creations joining the blog hop.
