Hi friends! Happy Tuesday! We are beyond delighted to say that our August 2024 Card kit, Graceful Flowers has SOLD OUT! We are so happy that you loved it as much as we loved putting it together! We hope that if you wanted you were able to get it, and this post will be a great inspiration for you! If you did not get the kit, the individual components are still available for purchase! Read on to learn more about this beautiful make by Keisha Charles (and please join us in welcoming her to our blog today as a special guest!) Enjoy!

I have a rainbow problem and if you give me 3 primary colors (I’m looking at you Distress Spritzes), 90% of the time you’ll get a rainbow. With the white seam binding being so perfect for dying, I just got to Spritzing and then enhancing that color with a few dabs from my coordinating ink pads. Adding a bright, Copic-colored bloom from the Graceful Flowers Stamp Set, and then some more florals in the background (this time in a soft gray to tone down all that color) and my rainbow card was done!

- Stamp the large flower arrangement in Distress Ink Lost Shadow vertically on both of the longer sides of a 4 1/4” x 5 1/2” piece of white card stock
- Cut white seam binding into 5” strips and spray with the Distress Spritzes:
- Overlapping the Picked Raspberry and Peacock Feathers to get purple
- Overlapping Peacock Feathers and Fossilized Amber to get green
- Let dry and dab ink pads in coordinating colors (see supply list)to enhance the color
- Clean up with the Microfiber cloth as necessary
- Ink the edges of a 3 1/8” x 5 1/8” piece of white card stock using the Fossilized Amber Distress Spritz
- Stamp the Graceful Flowers sentiment onto a piece of black cardstock with clear ink, dust with white embossing powder and heat-set. Die-cut or fussy-cut the sentiment.
- Stamp the flower and stem from the Graceful Flowers Stamp Set using a Tsukineko Tuxedo Black Ink Pad.
- Color the flower and stem using Copics (see supply list) or similar alcohol ink markers.
- Adhere the stamped white background to a 4 1/4” x 5 1/2” Fog cardstock card base with craft glue
- Wrap the smaller piece of white card stock with the dyed ribbons adhering with a Simon Says Stamp Tape Runner.
- Attach the “ribbon panel” to the white background with foam dots.
- Adhere the flower with craft glue and pop up the embossed sentiment with foam dots to finish.
