STAMPlorations 7th Birthday Bash - Day 3

Today is the 3rd day of the STAMPlorations Belated birthday blog bash and I am soooo excited to share this card. 

Floral stamps embossed in white and watercolored with Tim Holtz Distress Oxides

As part of the birthday celebrations, there's a whole bunch (pun intended) of new floral stamps  under the Bloomfully release that are absolutely beeee-you-teeee-ful! 

These are just three of them: 


I used the Bloomfully: Celebrate stamps and embossed the flower in white on a kraft base. Then I watercolored in the blooms using two different shades of pink Distress Oxide inks. 

Watercoloring a flower with pink Distress Oxide inks

I wanted my center to have a little sparkle, so I broke out my Perfect Pearls again and painted it up. 


I painted the leaves with a green Distress oxide and viola! A beautiful bloom. I love the pigmentation of Oxides on kraft paper! It creates such a magical variegated effect. 

Put it all together and what do you get? 


Make sure you go share in the birthday celebrations because there are over $150 in prizes up for grabs!! 


I'm going to play along in The Sisterhood of Crafters - Lots of Layers challenge!
