My Own Little Patch of Flowers

The theme for at Die Cut Divas for August is FLOWERS.  Enter your beautiful flower cards right here.

Rachel Vass Designs has some of the most beautiful flower digital stamps ever.  It's hard to believe that I used only two flowers in this digital set to make my canvas, but it's true.  

        

I went crazy for flowers, which is usually not my interest, but I played with a wonderful image set from Rachel Vass Designs by adding the flowers I wanted onto an 8" X 11 1/2" sheet of Copic paper on a Word document.  You can right click and "wrap" your images over and under text.  That's all I did here and added die-cuts.
Close-up below  I like the way the white glitter paper sits on top of the 2 black die-cuts (one is a shiny black paper)  A couple drops of Simply White Nuvo drops did the trick  I only used one color Copic marker.

My yellow turned out darker than I wanted for a sympathy card, but, oh well.  I used Y19, Y00 and G40 on the flower panel with some gold Nuvo drops

Supplies:
Rachel Vass "Special to Me" digi stamp  (I LOVE these images)
Elizabeth Craft Designs Stitched Rectangle dies
Nuvo Drops
Vagabond die cut machine

Welcome Sue Nagata

Hello everybody,

Please join us and welcome our newest DT member Sue Nagata.  


Here's a few words from her.


===================================================================

Hi! I’m Sue, aka foleysfriend. I’m a paper crafter. I started as a scrapbooker but since I’ve been taking fewer and fewer photos, I needed something else to do with my collection of papers. Card-making seemed like a good idea. Except now, I have even more papers – ugh! My style is clean and simple and love learning new techniques and working with new products and materials. I’m very excited to be joining the Die Cut Divas team.

===================================================================

You can check out more of Sue's work on her blog:   foleysfriend

Please do come back tomorrow to check out her first solo post right her on Die Cut Divas.
