This week's Make It Monday is hosted by Ashley Newell where she shows us another way to use sentiment stamps by curving them. You can watch the her video here ➼ Make It Monday #279: Curved Sentiments.
I placed a Modern Background stencil over white cardstock, and using a make-up brush and Aqua Mist ink, lightly applied the ink to make a patterned background. The panel is adhered to a Pure Poppy cardstock card base, with some of it showing on the right side.
I die-cut the flower bouquet in white cardstock and stenciled or stamped it in a variety of inks (listed below). The main colors I used for the flowers are Berry Sorbet and Pure Poppy, one of my favorite color combinations. I also die-cut a few of the larger flowers, stamped and placed them on foam tape for dimension.
The flowerpot is die-cut in Pure Poppy cardstock and trimmed with Aqua Mist and Berry Sorbet cardstock. Aren't these cute little additions to help dress up the flowerpot? That Betsy Veldman is so creative!
The bouquet is also on foam tape. Finally, I stamped the sentiment in black ink, curving it on my clear block.
