Keep Blooming


I'm back with another fun card featuring a new release from 
Sweet n Sassy stamps called: Succulents. 


For this card I stamped my succulents on Canson Mixed Media paper and colored them with my Prismacolor pencils.
To add just a bit more interest to my background, I inked my knitted embossing folder with cracked pistachio ink before adding my light green paper and running it through my cutttlebug.


Supplies and tools:
  • Succulents (Sweet n Sassy Stamps) 
  • Canson Mixed Media Paper
  • Prisamcolor Pencils
  • Knitted Embossing Folder (Richard Garay)
  • Conservatory Window Die (Sizzix) 
  • Baker's Twine
  • Cracked Pistachio Distress Oxide (Ranger)

Love your colouring of the succulents, I have some in my garden that look exactly like that. The background is so cool with the embossed 'knitted' effect and adding that ink in the similar shade really makes it pop. Its a fantastic card and I'm so glad you shared it with us at TIME OUT!
