Happy Wednesday!! Nora here with a trio of cards using a simple design.
Stamps: Calm and Loving, Pretty Posies
I needed a bunch of get well cards but I am not great at making cards EXACTLY the same. I get bored very easily so I decided to use the same supplies but vary the stamping a bit along with playing with some colors.
For each card, I started off by using Distress Inks to blend color onto a piece of white cardstock using a blending brush.
I then stamped the flowers from Pretty Posies, in black, along the left and bottom of the white cardstock.
Next I added hearts, purple on the purple card, and red for the yellow and green, using the Calm and Loving stamp set.
On the green card front, I added another step by coloring in the flowers with colored pencils.
On this particular card front, I stamped each flower, colored it in, and then stamped over it again with the black ink. Using Pretty Posies, I stamped each sentiment block separately in inks that coordinated with the colors of each card.
To finish each card, I die cut the front and then adhered it to matching cardstock. I used a clear sparkle pen on the hearts of each card and covered them with Glossy accents. On the green card, I added some confetti sequins as well.
Below are more views of the purple card and the yellow card.
This was an easy way to create a few cards that I needed but each are just a little different to keep my interest in creating. I hope that this has given you a few ideas on making similar cards.
