So Many of My Smiles Begin With You

Hello everyone, Maria here on the blog with you!  In today's post, I want to share a card with a lot of texture and details!  I am showcasing the Velvet Petals Impress-ion Press + Foil Plates, with the Velvet Petals Layering Stencils and the Velvet Petals Coordinating Dies.

I started to die-cut the card front using the Pinpoint Rectangle Die set.    I wanted to add some color to the background and used the Arches Spotlight Stencil.  I mixed Banana Cream Pie, Peachy Keen, and Pink Tutu Hybrid inks.  

Next, I used the Velvet Petals Impress-ion Press + Foil Plates with the BetterPress Plates to stamp an impression on the watercolor cardstock with Raven Hybrid ink.  Coloring the images was very easy using the Velvet Petals Layering Stencils with Scarlet Rose, Lipstick Jungle, Soft Kisses, and Pistachios-A-Plenty Hybrid inks.

To add more texture, I die-cut the square white frame using the Floating Squares Die set.  I adhered the colored roses, then added the floating white square with liquid glue.  The background was then foam-mounted to the card base for more dimension and finished by adding the sentiment!  Here's another look:

I LOVE how this project turned out, and I hope you do as well.  Thanks for stopping by and have an amazing day!
