Good morning everyone the card today is for both the Mojo Monday sketch challenge and also the Split Coast Stampers Colour Challenge
I was desperate to do the sketch challenge but hung off until I saw what the colour challenge was and I wasn't disappointed.
This card took a little longer than normal (three hours) because I decided to layer some of the flowers (tole work) which meant three lots of colouring.
I also decided to use the Belleek technique to do the background, there are a couple of links on my Split Coast Stamper site here.
Everything else is pretty straight forward with a little sponging around the image to give some shading and taking some of the stark white away.
I've mounted the wood panel with SU dimensionals and I have used 3D craft foam pads from Birch to attache the flower petals
I cut out the circle and stamped then over stamped with clear embossing powder the greeting before I Belleek embossed the front panned. I learnt the hard way that you need to do everything else to a panel before you do your dry embossing or you will loose definition.
Finally I did a little bit of Belleek embossing on teh bottom of the insert paper, just because I could lol.
