MY CARD USING THE NEW CANDY STRIPE COSMOS FLOWER STAMP AND DIES
This set is the newest member of the Build-A-Flower stamp and die, Candystripe Cosmos layering stamp and coordinating die release day. Hooray! I stamped each layering flower sections using coordinating Altenew purple ink cubes starting with the lightest inks first. I used several yellow ink cubes for the flower centers. Then I inked the leaves using green ink cubes again from light to dark colors. I die cut the inked flowers and three of the leaves. The background was created using an ink blending brush and the lightest purple Altenew ink cube to cover the quarter white piece of card stock and darker inked corners. For the next step, I used the Altenew Dotted Swiss debossing plate to create a patterned background. I added a strip of Altenew gold washi tape and arranged the flowers and leaves over the tape. I added a narrow stamped die cut sentiment strip and tucked it behind a flower. I outlined the petals and leaves using a glitter pen. The A2 card is completed and glittery.

Lovely use of purple! A very sweet card. I’m always at a loss as to what to do with the few rolls of washi tape that I own – this was a good inspiration for me. Thank you!
Great! I like to use washi tape as accents with
sentiment die cuts. Give it a try. Thanks for stopping by.
