Here's my card
I started with a white card base which I colored with mustard seed distress ink. I then stamped (Archivers Exclusive Hero Arts Set Mixed Design) a circle background using more mustard seed. I didn't want the background to be blah but I wanted the flowers to take center stage.
I stamped 15 flowers (Hero Arts, 4 Flowers) on white card stock then fussy cut them out (yes it was crazy). I colored them using tumbled glass and broken china. I used a stencil to draw my heart in pencil on the card base then began filling in my flowers. To create some depth I adhered some flowers flat and some with foam. To complete the flowers I colored some rhinestones navy blue and put them in the centers. I only buy clear rhinestones now because I can color them with alcohol ink (or any sharpie) it saves me tons of money!
To finish out the card I stamped the sentiment (Hero Arts, Live & Laugh) in jet black archival ink (Ranger).
