Hello Crafty Friends!
It great to be back! I had heart surgery in February and I've been recovering. But enjoyed a nice break with my hubby in March celebrating our anniversary on a cruise in Mexico!
I am slowly coming back and started designing and paper crafting again earlier this month! Yay!! :)
I just wanted to share my card I created using the April SOTM. I used the So Much Happy paper to create my card! I love these beautiful bright colors in this paper collection!
I colored the flower by stamping it in lemon ink and sponging the center. The technique is called masking. I stamped the flower on a separate piece of paper, cut the center of the flower out, placed it over the center of the flower on another stamped flower and sponged right in the center to add a nice shadow. I did this on the leaves as well. Cut the leaves out and sponge edges. Love this technique!
