Gray skies bring sunny days card

by Silvana Chambon on Dec 11 2024
Hello, friends! It´s Silvana here from Casa Magnolia. Today, I bring a very sweet card with a message to lift anyone's spirits.  The card features the new Peach and Piper: Bad Weather Friends stamp and coordinating die. The sweetest stamp set! The two friends are sharing an umbrella under a stormy sky. The look of this stormy background was made with a mix of products. For the clouds, I used the new Clouds on the Horizon stamp stamped with a dark blue ink. I blended the same ink with a Life changing blender brush for a softer look. I splattered a few drops of water onto the paper and drops of Paper Splatter Opaque white.  For the grass I used the Tall Grass die.  After the background was done, I cut it with the smallest arch die in the Basic Diecutting Set 1. For the white border, I cut two arch dies together, from the same set. For the blue background I used the A2 Basket Weave Cover Plate die to give it a little more interest.  I Stamped with black ink the sentiment and to finish it up I used some sequins from the new On a midnight dream  Sequin mix.  And that´s my completed card! I hope you like it as much as I did.  Thank you so much for stoping by the blog today.  Have an amazing day. See you in my next post. Silvana.
