Daily Special - SCS Challenge TLC197

My daily special posting for today is SCS Challenge. I chose the latest SCS challenge under technique challenge on their home page. The challenge number is TLC197. The challenge is to make a card that makes you feel peaceful, quiet and serene. Flowers make me feel at peace when I look at them so that is why I chose the Watercolor Garden stamp set as my theme to this challenge.

Instructions

• Prepare a card base using Positively Pink cardstock and set aside


• Cut the glossy cardstock to measure 3 3/4" x 5"


• Ink large daisy stamp in Pixie Pink and spritz a fine mist of water onto the inked stamp then randomly stamp the image on to the glossy cardstock. Repeat this process each time you re-ink the stamp.


• Do the same thing with the leaf using Green Galore ink.


• Mat the image on to a Green Galore cardstock - about 1/8 larger than the the image.


• Punch 3 holes horizontally to the lower right corner as show in the picture.


• Mount on to the card base.

• Cut a white cardstock to 3.5 x 4" and stamp the sentiment to the lower right corner using lavender lace ink.


• Mat on to a Green Galore cardstock.
  


• On a white cardstock, rubber stamp 2 daisies with Pixie Pink ink, 3 leaves with Green Galore ink, and the smaller flower with Lavender Lace.


• Cut each image out and mount the daisies on to the left side of the stamped sentiment as shown the picture. Mount the daisies with dimensionals to give them a 3D appearance.


• Rearrange the smaller flowers and leaves under the daisies as show in the picture and adhere.


• Tie a ribbon around the top half of the card and create a bow to the right side.


• Mount on the card using dimensionals.

That's it! Simple. What's your idea of peaceful and serene? Try this challenge out and post it on SCS or send a picture to my email address and I'll add it to this post.
