Heartfelt Creations - So Sorry

Good Morning All and Welcome to my newest followers!
A CAS card today, but loved how this card turned out.  (It's much better in 'real life', I struggled to get a good photo of the shimmer highlights I added to the flowers).  These stamps are so pretty and intricate in design that sometimes I love to simply stamp them, as you can then see all the detailing of the stamp itself!






Instructions
Card Size - 14.5cm x 11cm.

Begin by stamping the Dahlia Bouquet image onto white card using VersaMagic Purple Hydrangea ink.  To create a watercolour effect, ink the stamp up, then stamp onto some scrap paper.  Spritz the stamp with some water and then stamp onto some white card and leave to dry.  This creates a gentle, soft look and when dry, add some highlights using a Sakura Clear Star pen and gently wash over with a waterbrush.  Cut down the card to measure 10.5cm x 13.5cm.  Add the same ink to the edges and heat emboss with clear embossing powder.   On separate white card stamp the sentiment using the same ink and heat emboss.  Die cut using a circle die and punch a hole in the top.  Add more ink around the circle edge and again heat emboss.  Add silver cord around the card looping through the sentiment and tie in a  bow.  Secure the sentiment in place using foam pads.  Layer up onto some purple card using foam pads and adhere to main card front using double sided tape.

All details of the products used can be found on the Heartfelt Creations Blog, please have a look and see what the other designers have been creating also!

This is lovely Oksana. The stamp is gorgeous and I love the colour you used. As you say, the stamp speaks for itself and needs nothing else. Love from Christine xx

This is so pretty Oksana and it is perfect for many occasions. I love the stamp that you have used which looks quite a large design and the color scheme is lovely. The silver cord is a nice touch xx

This is lovely Oksana. I always find the CAS cards the hardest to do and yet that was probably my style originally before all those lovely goodies came on to the market! :)
