Edited to add a big Thank You to the DT for choosing my card as one of the Style Favorites :)
My card is headed to showCASe Your Style #12:
My card was totally inspired by this stunning creation by my dear friend and neighbor to the west....Carol from "Just Me C".
I love the beautiful, vibrant colors that Carol used and the 'movement' of the floral images'. One quick call to Carol (is 45 minutes considered quick?) for the "how to's" of this cool technique and I was off to my craft room to give it a whirl!
I used my new Ranger Dye Ink - Caribbean Coast. I ordered the full set of 12 and so far, I love, love, love the ink. Nice coverage and gorgeous colors! The stamp may have come from the $1 bin at Michaels ???
BTW, the sentiment IS stamped with the same color ink! So why-oh-why does the darn thing look okay in the side view photo but darker/yuckier in the top pic ???
Love the technique, the colour and that graphic flower! Glad you're enjoying the Ranger inks!
ReplyDeleteLove this!!! Just love this! The beautiful vivid color against that white, simply stunning my sweet friend! I know what you mean about phone calls to crafty friends...Spoke with Miss Bev this morning for almost an hour...so fun to chat again! Enjoy your weekend!
ReplyDeleteWay to rock the sketch! Love your card :)
ReplyDeleteGreat card...again!!
ReplyDeleteLove this technique, Geri. It must be your screen because the sentiment looks the same color to me.
ReplyDeleteHow glorious, Geri ... that gorgeous turqoise blue against all that yummy crisp white ... so perfectly and precisely popped up! Hope you're bringing those Ranger inks to the next BABES event ... they look awesome!! Hugs & bisous, bisous, Anita :)
ReplyDeleteLove this technique and the way it looks! Your flowers are just to cute, a fabulous CAS card Geri! I too, loved Carol's card. Hugs, Brenda
ReplyDeletewhat a great card! love that die you have used, too. :)
ReplyDeleteAwww...I'm all flushed and blushing with your sweet shoutout and photo of my card! THANK YOU! As for our phone call: yes, 45 minutes *is* short, because I could talk with you for hours upon hours! We must chat again soon - on the phone AND in real life! Your card: AWESOME! Love those circle flowers; love the layout (brilliant take on the sketch!) and love the colour (which again, on my screen, is the same - incredibly pretty - on both your photos). Stunning performance, my dear friend!
