Sending Happy Thoughts

I started by die cutting the flower and leaves from Neenah Solar White 80lb cardstock using the Craft-A-Flower: Himalayan Blue Poppy Layering Die Set. Then I coloured them using the below Mystic Garden Artist Alcohol Markers Set J. Below are the colours I used:
Flower – Mahogany Bark, Burnt Red, Canyon Clay, Pastel Sunrise
Centre of the flower – Arctic Mountain, Winter Lake, Icy Water, Polar Bear
Leaves – Mangrove Root, Sea Forest, Marshland, Misty Moor

Next, I placed the Floral Lace Die on Neenah Solar White 110lb cardstock and ran it through the die cutting machine. I then inked it using Persian Blue Crisp Dye Ink and an ink blending tool. 

After that, I die cut a piece of Jet Black cardstock using the Reflections Die. Then I stamped the sentiment from the Bold Sentiments Stamp Set on white cardstock using Obsidian Pigment Ink. Next, I splattered white gouache on an A2 Jet Black cardstock.

As the last step, I assembled the card and stuck the panel on an A2 card base using liquid glue.

Until then, live creatively and spread the joy of handmade art. ❤️
