Sketched Flower Cards

Last but not least into my exploration with the Petals Potpourri stamps I made these two beautiful cards using the sketched flower stamp and my Blendabilities markers.

 
 
 I love how these turned out. They are more along the lines of CAS cards, but with a little pop as the flowers are very dimensional. I also am really liking a few discs of sequins here and there for a tiny bit of bling. And to be honest I never thought I'd be a fan of sequins.
 


As you can see my flowers have three layers, two petal layers that were manipulated a little with shaping tools to ass a curve and the center. All three layers have been popped with foam squares.
For the Daisy I shaded my petals a little with Soft Sky Blendabilities.

 
Supplies used:
Cardstock: Recollections 110 lbs white
Stamps: Petal Potpourri - SU, Gorgeous Grunge - SU, Crazy About You - SU
Ink: Tuxedo black - Memento, Daffodil Delight - SU, Chocolate Chip - SU
Alcohol markers: Blendabilities - SU , Daffodil Delight, Old Olive, Soft Sky and Skin tone.
Punch: Flower Medallion - SU
Misc.: Gold and silver sequins, foam mounting squares 
 
 
Thanks for stopping by! Hope to see you again soon.
