There is so much I love about this card of Karen's that I don't know where to begin! Let's start with the bright, vibrant colors. They really do make me smile. :) I love how she has colored in those flowers, too. And speaking of the flowers, her stamping is wonderful. The way she has layered and masked really takes her design to the next level. Finally, the overall layout of this card is very inspirational. The center panel with the flowers around the bottom and sides lends itself to any card stamped with big flowers.
Here is my take. I was especially inspired by Karen's overall design, but I switched the colors up a bit on mine:
Here is my take. I was especially inspired by Karen's overall design, but I switched the colors up a bit on mine:
The flowers were stamped on white cardstock using Memento Tuxedo Black ink and were colored using colored pencils. After coloring the flowers, I distressed the edges using Brushed Cordroy Distress Ink. The center panel was layered on top of a piece of white cardstock which has been embossed and lightly distressed with Brushed Corduroy Distress Ink.
Thanks for popping by! I can't wait to share Karen's next inspiration card. It's a total STUNNER!
