What a fun site! IÂ’m so excited to be a guest for the Inspiration Challenge! Audrie was kind enough to ask me & I love the site she chose! After browsing for a long while, I kept coming back to THESE vases. I just love the colors and curves so I tried to incorporate those in my card.
I cut a piece of white card stock then used a curved border die to divide it in 3 pieces. The wide section I left white & embossed it. The turquoise & red sections were colored w/ Copic markers. I attached them to a white 4 x 5.25 piece of white c/s. ItÂ’s wrapped w/ seam ribbon that I colored to match using the same red Copics.
The greeting panel was die cut w/ a coordinating die and w/ the die in place, I added color using the same turquoise & red Copics, removed the die & stamped the greeting image w/ Versafine. I prefer Versafine for clear, dark stamping, but the ink doesnÂ’t work well under Copics, so I colored w/ the Copics first, then stamped on top. The image layer behind it is a border design that coordinates w/ Labels 26. I added just a touch of color then cut it in half so I could pull the sides in & make it a bit narrower.
Thanks so much for looking! Close ups and the colors of Copics I used are on my blog: The Write Stuff

Julie, I love your "blessings in a bottle" image. Wish I could find one. :-) Your curved and embossed borders look so pretty.
