Simply Zinnia Masked Floral Card

This week my featured bundle has been the gorgeous Simply Zinnia Suite.

The card below was designed as part of a recent Team mystery stamping challenge.

My team loved it so I shared how it was made on my Connect-Craft-Chat Facebook live

Can you believe that the flowers on this card are all on just one piece of basic white card?

That’s the beauty & magic of masks!!

• Stamp three large flowers & one double leaf from the Simply Zinnia Stamp Set onto some masking paper or Post it notes and fussy cut out, using Memento Ink.
• Take the large piece of Basic White (Layer 1) and stamp the first flower
• Use the masks over the flowers and leaves as you stamp to create depth and separation on the images.
• Once you have covered most of the Basic White card use Stampin’ Blends to colour the flowers
• Colour the petals in Bubble Gum, Fresh Freesia, Highland Heather, Berry Burst and Dark Lemon Lolly for the centres.
• Colour the leaves in Granny Apple Green.
• Fussy cut out the edge on the right hand side of the flowers
• Use a dark Basic Black Blend on any remaining white areas
• Add to the base card with Dimensionals
• Stamp the sentiment in Memento ink
• Add the small strip of Melon Mambo under the sentiment strip using glue
• Adhere to the card using Dimensionals
• Finish with some Iridescent Rhinestone Basic Jewels
