Hello Stampers and Happy Friday!
Becky Roberts here from Inking Idaho with a pretty tulip card. We have a very, very short window of tulip growth here in Idaho, so when I see them I really enjoy them.
I stamped the Early Tulip Bouquet stamp with the Picket Fence Black ink pad. I colored it in with a few Copic markers and then hand cut it out. I turned the image over and on the backside, gently rubbed with a big ball stylus giving each flower a little bubble shape to it. Then I added a foam square to the center of each of those areas and placed it on a piece of 4" x 5-1/4" cardstock. That way it is popped up and has a little rounded shape to each flower.
I used the Fancy Kaleidoscope Stencil (one of my personal favorites!) and Distress Oxide ink with the Life Changing Blender Brushes on the card panel before adhering it to a folder card. Then I ripped it off really fast because I noticed the card was upside down...don't tell me you've never done that! *Ü*

Early Tulip Bouquet Cards Two Ways with Erica
by Erica Andersson-Burke on Mar 24 2020
Hi everyone!
It’s Erica here on the PFS blog today, with two spring-feel cards, using the lovely Early Tulip Bouquet stamp.
The first one is a simple sympathy card, with the image part coloured with water colours and lots of white space.
I stamped up the Tulips along the right hand bottom corner, using the Black Hybrid Ink. On this card I kept it horizontally. This is Ranger water colour paper and I used the smooth side. After setting the ink with a heat tool, I used some purple tape and taped the panel down. I placed the tape over the image, along the edges, to keep those parts covered.
The colours I have used are Daniel Smith water colours and I did the tulips in spring like colours. When it was dry, I stamped up the sentiment in the top left corner with Black Hybrid ink and with that the first card was done.
For the second card I used Kraft card stock and stamped up the Tulips with Inkon3 Fadeout ink. To switch things up a little, I did it vertically for this one.
I used coloured pencils to colour it in and whilst it takes a long time, it’s so worth it!
To finish off this card I stamped up the Tulips with the Fadeout Ink in the top left corner. Mainly just to fill the space a little. On top of this I heat embossed the sentiment ‘You Are Lovely’ in Metallic Rich Gold embossing powder from WOW! Embossing.
Whilst this one took a lot longer than the first one, it’s lovely to see how different the outcome is using different mediums and card stock. Even such a little thing as switching up the way you stamp the image on your card stock can make a big difference.
That’s it from me for today, thanks for stopping by and I hope you found some inspiration in this post!
Lots of love and happy crafting from Erica
