Hello friends! So today's cards uses backgrounds that I created in my previous post and video. So if you missed that post you can find it here:
3D Embossed Distress Oxide Spray Backgrounds | SSS Pinpoint Starlets 3D Embossing Folder
These cards also use a favorite stamp set of mine - Simon Says Stamp's Wildflowers stamp set. I've done a bunch of posts and videos using this set since it was released:
Gold Wildflowers Silhouette Cards | Simon Says Stamp
Sunset Blend Cards with Hero Arts Reactive Inks | SSS Wildflowers Take 2
Hazy Blue Oxide Blended Backgrounds | SSS Wilflowers Stamp Set Take 3
NEW Oxide Blend Slimline Card | SSS Wildflowers Stamp Set Take 4
Easy Oxide Ink Blending Slimline Card | SSS Wildflowers Stamp Set Take 5
Shimmer Watercolor with Distress Ink Refills | SSS Wildflowers Stamp Set Take 6
So after I made all those backgrounds in the previous post I decided to use a couple of them to make these cards:
I rubbed Distress Micro Glaze over the backgrounds which made the colors pop just a bit more, and then white heat embossed the Wildflowers stamps over them.
I used Simon's Magical wafer die and topped it with glitter card stock, and used the Magical To Me stamp set for the companion sentiments. I die cut some gold vellum with the oldie-but-goodie Flickering Butterflies wafer die and adhered those to the cards as well.
On the insides of the cards I stamped the Wildflowers images using Distress Oxide inks and my blending foams to get a smoother stamped image and a gradient between the colors. I added the remaining die cut butterflies and paired the cards with some gold envelopes and that was it!
