Yellow is not a colour I use too much so for a change, I did!! Brusho background on watercolour paper and then I cut a black Gerber Daisy flower saving all the "waste" and 3 yellow which I "stacked" up. The black bits I kept to reform a solid black flower on the bottom to add depth Made some "curly" bits with slithers of black card and the leaves were from the MB Poinsettia corner. Mat and layering to finish...... based on an original by Bibiana which we recreated at Eileen's Workshop stampingwithbibiana.blogspot.com eileenscraftyzone.blogspot.co.uk

| I stamped onto Kraft card with Gold embossing powder and cut shape using Tonic Scallop Rectangle. I also stamped the image twice onto Parchment. Cut out the 2 parchment stamped pieces and coloured on the back with a white pen and yellow for the centres. Mat and layered as shown and stamped the vertical sentiment, also in Gold Embossing powder.

| The light has reflected against the linen effect card but enjoyed making these cards on a different shaped base. The Holly stencil is from Sweet Poppy Stencils and I used pearlescent paste with glitter dusted over whilst the paste was still wet. |

| Mirrored the mat and layering inside to finish the card. The Die is from Lifestyle one of the frame range.............here's the link for the stencil www.sweet-poppy.co.uk |
.......from the Rose Tree Set  |
| A stamp from the Rose Tree Set for a quick make. Used Tonic dies ( square scallop) to make the frame and cut the mat from a free paper downloaded from the Chocolate Baroque site and the first layer from a cream card sprayed with Crafters Companion Gold Spray ( a good way to make your own glitter card!!) Stamped the image with Memento ink as I wanted to use my Spectrum Noir Pencils and Pens to colour. Here's the link for you to have a look at the Stamp set:- http://www.chocolatebaroque.com/The-Rose-Tree-Unmounted-Rubber-Stamp-sheet--A5_p_3873.html |

| I embossed the background before distressing. Went through a circle mask with a white pen. I die cut a flower in black for the base layer and the built up 4 white ones on top for depth. based on a design I saw on Bibiana's Blog..... bibiana.blospot.com
I don't have the pine needles die so I had a little think and decided to try some wispy bits cut in black on the guillotine |
 I made this card using a technique that I had seen on You Tube with Sheena Douglass. I backed with a gold card which alters the effect. Mirri card behind looks good too. After a couple of tries in the bin with other stamps, this one of a Gerbera from Ryn did the job giving a good outline to the image when the ink is removed. Topped the acetate with three flowers which I coloured and decoupaged. Added Stickles and Glossy accents to the flowers to finish |
