Card measures 5“ x 6”.
White cs is Georgia Pacific; color cs is Bazzill.
I inked the solid floral image (Magenta) with Nick Bantock Chrome Yellow. I inked the patterned image (unknown background) with Nick Bantock Prussian Blue. I put the two stamps together and then stamped on the paper with the solid image. I stamped the background with the same pattern as the focal image using Nick Bantock Sapmoss Green. I colored the center of the flowers with a TomBow Marker.
Now I see that a brad would have looked good in the center of the flower. Why don't I think of these things before I glue everything down? OK. I just went in and glued a Robin's Nest Dew Drop in the center. It looks better. When it dries, I'll try to scan it, but my scanner has been doing funny things when I use a dimensional on the card. OK. I've scanned the card with the Dew Drop, but now it looks crooked. It's not really crooked IRL.
This card has been through a rough time and survived. After stamping the image, I decided to color the stem with green. It looked awful so I stamped again and placed the new image on top of the first one almost perfectly. I decided to use Un-du to take it off so I could trim the two images together and have them line up perfectly. I spilled the Un-du all over this card. I dirtied the matting. Before dumping it out, I let it dry. Then I used one of those erasers that remove adhesive to clean it up and stuck the image down again. Not bad.
Also, I wanted to use a Gelly Roll Glaze pen to color in the center of the flowers on the background. Mine was all dried up. I tried using hot water on the pen; it didn't help. I tried a match on the tip, and that didn't work. I tried the match again, and the tip of the pen fell out. OK. If you want to be that way. You'll be glad to know that the ink was still wet. Unfortunately, that didn't help since there was no longer a tip on the pen. Too bad they don't use the same system they use on the glitter pens. Those have the tip sticking into a little ball. My glitter pens are all still working fine. Oh, well. I'd rather lose the pen than the card–I think.
