I had a great time this evening after work creating a special card to send off to Katie, a young mother and wife who is dealing with some serious health issues. The Teapot Tuesday Challenge today was dedicated to creating cards to send to Katie.
I stamped the image on Prism white paper with versa and embossed with gold embossing powder. I watercolored using a brush and reinkers and while it was still sort of wet I applied gold powder again and heated. The powder stuck to the wet places on the image and added more gold to highlight the beautiful flowers. The border was punched with a set of MS border and corner punches. I really love the soft feminine look to this card and hope it brightens Katie’s day.

Oh my that is just goregous, the embossing gives it such an elegant touch, I am sure she will feel the care that went into this!
So pretty!! Off the topic of this card, but have to tell you that I was inspired by your winter tree scene as well as some other cardmakers on SCS and I finally tried some ink blending to create a scene for a card. I’m so happy with my first try and can’t wait to do some more of them. Thanks for sharing your beautiful work and for all the inspiration you give.
Gorgeous work of art. Those tulips are so pretty. Katie is going to love this.
You have some serious beauty going on here, Kittie…WOW!!!! Your embossed flowers are absolutely FABULOUS!!!!
