Hello, time for a new challenge at Seize The Birthday, and our host Ashwini has chosen Use Metallics.
I found this silver-foiled panel (Spellbinders Modern Lines) in my very small stash of foiled items (need to make more). I stamped the new Abstract Flowers from Tim Holtz, using Distress Stains and drawing the colour in with a wet paintbrush. The sentiment is from Glorious Bouquet and the background text from Ledger Script.
You can see the silver foiling better in this pic.
Pop on over to the Seize The Birthday blog for some more fab inspiration from the team and our Surprise Party Guests. And if metallics aren't your thing, you can still play along with our Anything Goes challenge.
You achieved a mixed media look and those florals are great. I like how the foil looks at the bottom. Great card.
ReplyDeleteShirley, lovely card and painted so beautifully. Goes perfectly with the silver foil.
ReplyDeleteLovely! What a great way to use that flower stamp (Mmmmm, add to wish list?) I love the silver metallics too. Gorgeous, Jo x
ReplyDeleteA great photo I can really see the silver foiling. This is such a pretty card and that bit of foiling on the bottom was all that it needed.
ReplyDeleteShirley, so glad you showed the close up of the card, I can really see the shine of the silver stripes! the flowers are gorgeous too!
ReplyDeleteSuch a pretty card. The silver stripes are a great addition for the lovely flowers.
ReplyDeleteLove how subtle and how cool the silver foil looks. I love how well it is incorporated into the background design, blends in, until the light shines on it, and then ..wow!! Cool card, Shirley!!
ReplyDeleteYour flowers are absolutely stunning!! Love how you used the foil panel from your stash and adding the script in the background matches perfectly. Beautiful card.
ReplyDeleteWould never have thought to try stamping with distress stains Shirley, your result is stunning! Love the touch of foiling too. Thankyou for your get well wishes too, Cathy x
