Hello friends! I hope you're enjoying your weekend! It's hot here.
I have a fun card to share with you today using one of my all time favorite Reverse Confetti stamp sets, Fabulous Flamingo. If you've followed my blog you surely know that I do love flamingos :) And with Fall and Winter quickly approaching I had to get a few more summery, beachy, flamingoey cards in :)
I started by sponging some Mustard Seed and Spiced Marmalade Distress ink and spritzing with water for my background. I cut out the water using the doin' the wave Confetti Cuts. I used my MISTI to stamp the flamingo to get the shading on it and cut it out with the matching Confetti cuts. I stamped the legs right onto my sponged background, and added the flamingos body with foam tape.
The sun was glued down flat and the clouds were added with foam tape. I stamped the sentiment with black ink onto the water and the flower was added with foam tape. The whole panel was mounted with foam tape to a white card base.
Thanks so much for stopping by today! I hope you all are enjoying what's left of your weekend!
Hugs,
Kay :)
I want to go to this beach ...absoultly adorable and bright! Love this ,Kay!
ReplyDeleteI think of you whenever I see a flamingo, Kay! And that is pretty often. ;) Adore what you have done with this card. I am often in awe when I see your cards. I keep wondering how you do it. How do you come up with winners time after time after time. This card is fantastic! That background looks amazing and you've created such a bright and happy scene with that beautifully blended flamingo, the flowers and the sun/clouds. Ohhhh, how I wish we lived closer and I could watch you in action. Have a fabulous weekend. :) Big hugs!
