Thinking of you

Hello Friends, How are you? This is such a crazy time of month and I have a feeling it’s going to be filled with lots of quick posts. I am gearing up for my DD’s 16th Birthday among other stuff going on. There are 10 June Birthday’s and I always seem to leave someone out.  Did you ever see the Birthday calendar that I made?? If you want to check it out click here.
Thinking of you!
I love stamping flowers to create a background. It’s relaxing to color and later I add other details. This time instead of dots I added dashes following the outside edges of the flower and on the petals.

I had to give you a close up of the center. I dotted Flower Soft with some glue and when it was dry added a pool of Glossy Accents. It look super cool in person. The Flower Soft sticks out of the GA so it’s got some super texture since didn’t cut anything out on this. Let me know if you have any questions. Have a happy Sunday. Hugs, Kathy

    The bright colours are stunning & your use of Flower Soft with the Glossy Accents so effective with the dimensionality & texture. The dashes are utterly effective as is your bold outlining of the individual petals. Hope your daughter has a wonder 16th birthday.
