Sending a Prayer

Hi Everyone;

Another week has gone by and Friday is here again. For today’s card, I have used the English Rose from High Hopes Stamps.  This is a very versatile stamp which can even be used for those difficult occasions, which we never have enough of these type of cards in our stashes.

After stamping and colouring the image with copic markers, I used the Double Stitched Wavy Die from Gina Marie Designs to cut it out.  To keep the card CAS, I only used one piece of design paper along with a piece of lavender mulberry paper. I added a bit of water around the outside edges of the mulberry paper and tore a little bit off each edge.

Supplies used:

  • Stamps:  English Rose (L004), Sending a Prayer (G129) — High Hopes Stamps
  • Ink:  Tsukineko Memento Tuxedo Black
  • Paper:  XPress It Blending Cardstock, DP – Lucy Cromwell (Papermania), Mulberry Paper – Lavendar
  • Copic Markers:
    • YG17 – Green Grass, YG13 – Chartreuse, YG11 – Mignonette
    • BV0000 – Pale Thistle, BV000  – Iridescent Mauve, BV00 – Mauve Shadow
  • Wavy Stitched Ovals – Gina Marie Designs 
  • Nuvo Crystal Drops – Morning Dew
  • YNS Gumdrops

Welcome OCS and  HH Fans;

I’m certainly glad that it is Friday and the weekend will soon be here.  It has been one those weeks, when nothing seems to have gone right.  To top it off, I wasn’t able to find where I put a craft item that I wanted to use on today’s card. Hopefully, I will eventually find it.

For today’s card, I used this adorable English Rose from High Hopes Rubber Stamps.  After stamping the image on XPress It Blending Cardstock, I coloured it with copic markers using colours that I usually don’t use.  I added some Nuvo Morning Dew Crystal Drops to the roses and on the die, which didn’t quite work out the way I wanted.  Nuvo High Gloss White Crystal Drops was used in the corners.
