Sending Happiness and Good Thoughts!

Hey hey everyone! Hope you are all doing well. It is a beautiful winter’s day today. I decided to go out to shop for spring garden projects. I want couple of huge pots I need to plant maple trees and a few spring flower pots for the patio. Then I have a garden bed to redo. I bought the trees since they are bare rooted. I planted them in a spare nursery pots I already had. But spring flowers are not yet available in my garden centre. So I have to wait. Now I am looking for two huge pots in white or textured white to plant my trees. That is one to do tomorrow or Friday. I love gardening. Apart from cardmaking and cooking, gardening indoors and outdoors keeps me fit, sane and healthy. Anyway, I have a floral card to share with you today.

This card, I made using Simon Says Stamp‘s Thoughtful Flowers stamp set from Send Happiness collection. I watercoloured these beauties and love how it turned out.

I used Bristol smooth cardstock to stamp the floral images from Thoughful Flowers stamp set using Simon’s Intense Black ink. I used MISTI of course to double stamp and get good coverage.

I coloured the images and background using Zig clean colour brush markers. I added dot texture to the images and splatters on the background. Then I also added dot texture using white gel pen as well. I mounted the panel on fog card base.

The sentiments are from the stamp set which I stamped in black on regular cardstock, trimmed and adhered on the centre of the card front using foam adhesives. A few Nuvo glossy white drops randomly to finish off the cards.
