Smile you make me Happy

Welcome friends. Alanna back on the LDRS Creative blog today and I'm super excited to share my card with you today.  I've been playing around with the Beautiful Blooms set lately and decided that I needed to get out of my comfort zone and pull out my alcohol markers to color up this beautiful cluster.

To get started, I first stamped the image with the Raven Hybrid Ink which is a great ink as you can use it for all sorts of coloring mediums.

I then pulled out a few markers and got to work coloring in the images. I did each one the same.  

 After my coloring was done, I stamped the sentiments which are from the same Beautiful Blooms set. I love that the words are separate as you can really customize your sentiment. I then trimmed down my panel and added it to a top folding white card base. 

I wanted to add a bit more color to my card so I trimmed down a piece of paper from the new ____ patterned papers. I adhered the thin strips to either side of my focal panel.

I hope you've enjoyed my card today and been inspired. Crafty hugs!
