Don't you just love these gorgeous orchids? This is a sneak peek of Tree House stamp's new release coming March 7. There is a pre-release party on Thursday night with prizes and fun. Be sure to check out the fun.
Now, for the card details. The image is stamped in black and then I sprayed it with clear paint to give me a good surface to paint. I used ink and a damp paint brush to color the image. The centers are colored with so saffron and then I clear embossed that. The blossoms are painted with PP ink and brush and then when it was dry I used my white gel pen to give the detail I saw on a picture of orchids. I thought that was such an interesting detail. Happiness is stamped with PP also. Matted with black and then wild wasabi texured cs. I had to use the birds and swirls folder again for this. I think it has a bit of an Asian feel to it, and then I added the black ribbons, cutting the ends short to again look a bit like birds. It works for my imagination, how about yours? lol
