Raining Flowers in Razzleberry

Inspiration for creativity is everywhere!  This card was inspired by a card made by Chat Wszelaki.  Mine turned out quite different, but it got me started.

 

I used the new Fancy Fan Letterpress Plate inked in VersaMark and run through the Big Shot to get the background.  There was a little cutting involved for the flowers,  but with my Stampin' Up! Paper Snips it's a breeze.  The large flower is cut out and adhered with snail, then the smaller flower was stamped 3 times and the 3 larger tiers of petals are each cut out and layered with dimensionals.  Four layers total in the flower.  I didn't take a side view photo, but it does add visual interest with the layers each raised.

Mojo Monday 203 - Magnificent Vintage

I am finally getting around to posting my Mojo Monday project.

Here is the sketch for this week:

                                                

And here is my interpretation:

I love the vintage look.  For the background, I used the new Fancy Fan Letterpress Plate inked in Blushing Bride and ran it through the Big Shot.  It came through with a subtle embossing that gives it a slight texture as well as the color on color.  The flower has four layers cut from the Fancy Flower Punch.  Two from the Designer Series Paper (DSP) and then one flower from Blushing Bride peeled apart to make 2 flowers.  This makes the paper thin and easier to crumple.  Tip:  Place the flower between your thumb and a bone folder and drag it along the flower from the center out, turning each time, to break down the fibers in the card stock.  Then, when you see the edges coming apart, gently peel the two sides apart.  Crumple each flower piece, smooth back out, and daube with Crumb Cake ink before assembling the flower.
