Spellbinders September Floral Sets

 

Today I'm sharing two cards created from new floral die sets sent to me by Spellbinders.  (You may remember this card I posted recently posted using a third gifted floral set.)

My first card showcases the Black Eyed Susan set designed by Susan Tierney-Cockburn.  The florals began life as white cardstock which I colored with dye inks.  I've found that a small flat stipple/paint brush works really well in giving these smaller images some dimension.  

I added some black splatters and gold metallic pen accents to the florals and arranged them vertically along the left edge of a mini slimline wood grain textured card base.  The sentiment was die cut from matte gold cardstock stacked three high and adhered to the coordinating shadow.  I finished it off with some gold pearls.  Here's a closer look at the florals...

My second card was created using the Vinca Etched die set also from Susan.  I die cut these florals from scraps of blush colored cardstock and then added blending with dye inks for depth.  The leaves were cut from green cardstock and embellished with bits of gold metallic pen.  In this design I opted for a spray of flowers starting at the top of the card, cascading downward.  The setiment was stamped prior to embossing the background.  This one is a typical A2 size.  

Here is a close up of the florals.  I used a ball embosser to create the lift of the florals.
