This was my card for Our Daily Bread Designs Blog Hop yesterday... don't know what happened to my post, but anyway... I'm posting here now... hope it stays!
I made this card with two of the July 1 sets released by ODBD! The image on the front is from the Mother Teresa Set and we were given three ink colors from the ODBD store and had to use these three inks on our card for the July 1 blog hop. I had chosen Steel Blue, Olive and Terra Cotta. When we chose our colors, we did not know what the images would be that we would be coloring so that was fun!
I stamped my image on watercolor paper and then watercolored with the three inks from ODBD store. I used a watered down amount of Terra Cotta to get the light pinkish tone to my lotus blossom, and then I painted it with Shimmerz Angel Wings. I mounted this on a Nestie's Classic Frame cut out (brushed gold and stenciled in Olive) and the center piece is Papertrey Spring Moss which I texturized with a Nesties Flower Impressabilities. Each layer is on dimensionals.
For the blue layer I started with GPWhite and sponged the Steel Blue all over it. Then I stamped the Lotus blossom with Perfect Medium from Ranger and brushed with gold Perfect Pearls. I lightly set that with a spritz of water. I love how it gave the paper an Asian feel. I mounted that on textured brushed gold from The Paper Co and then Papertrey Spring Moss base. The ribbon is Papertrey perfect match and the dew drops are Robin's Nest "Lily Pad".
Thanks for looking! See the inside and more deets on my blog:
