Pink & Main – Shine Bright

Hello everyone. I’m over on the Pink & Main blog today with this beautiful fall sunflower card. I always love watercoloring florals and couldn’t resist trying it with this new Sunny Greetings set.

I started this card by stamping and heat embossing my images from Sunny Greetings in gold on Bristol smooth cardstock. Then I set to watercoloring with my Zig markers and a water brush pen. Next, I used the coordinating dies to cut them out and decided on a final design for my card. I chose 2 sentiments from the set, heat embossed them in the same gold and die cut them with the sentiment strip dies in the coordinating die set.

I pulled out my sweater weather paper pad and used the largest layered rectangle die to cut it out. Then I took gold paper from my stash and used the third and forth from the largest layered rectangles together to create a frame. I glued these to my card base and arranged my flower images how I wanted them and glued them down as well. I trimmed the excess off the edges once the glue was dry.

Next, I popped my sentiment strips up with foam tape and decided I wanted a little extra sparkle. I pulled out some gems from my stash and glued them around the florals to round the design off.

I just love this set and have so many ideas with it. They are just screaming to be used all together on a slimline card next, I think. Stay tuned for that one.

I appreciate you sharing your time with me. Have a fabulous day!
