Embellish Square Cards Color Trends Challenge

A quick project for the current Embellish Challenge…I made it this morning when I had a serious need to make something! (I’m like a crafting addict!!!)

I must say, square cards are not my strength. I don’t know why, but they are a challenge for me!

For this card, I went with square layers to mimic the card shape – and kept everything else pretty simple.

I am loving the Hero Arts Open Flower Cling stamp…there are so many options for how to use it. Here, I colored it in with shades of pink to add depth to this otherwise flat card.

Thanks for stopping by for some Damask Love and I hope you have a fabulous day!
 
Supplies:
Stamps: Hero Arts Small Open Flower Cling stamp, PTI Corners and Border Monogram Edition
Ink: Vivid Dye Ink (Fuchsia)
Paper: PTI (Hawaiian Shores, Lemon Tart, white)
Other: Tombow Watercolor Markers

Keep on crafting with these other posts

    Gorgeous! Love the window effect and how you coloured the flower. I’ve always been too lazy to colour each petal individually but I’ve now been inspired to get my lazy butt in gear and try it!
