To begin I die cut all the pieces for the Lovely Layers: Roses and then Ink Blended each layer of the petals using Atelier Inks from Inkon3, see thumbnails below.
For the petals, I first used Goddess Green Ink and then went back in with Trinity to darken some of the petals and stems.
I used foam tape to build up the petals of the rose, leaving the center free of foam so that I could add glue to it and pinch it together with reverse tweezers until the glue dried. This gives the rose some fan-like dimension. And, yes this does make the card super bulky. So this would be one card that would have to be hand-delivered or you'd have to put it in a "box of roses". This rose would also look amazing in a frame too! Check out my previous lovely layer frames HERE.
To finish this beauty, I added some of my favorite sequins for even more sparkle and shine.

goodness Ilda, this is beyond beautiful, LOVE it. I may have to get those Ink on 3 inks, they are beautiful colors
ReplyDeleteThanks Sandi, these inks are some I reach for the most. Not a ton of them which is perfect for me but they blend like butter, stamp beautifully and are great for water coloring with. Cant go wrong. Thank you for stopping by!
