Daffodils Stamp | Thank You Card
Hello! We have some gorgeous spring inspiration to share with you here on the blog today. Michelle’s beautiful thank you card features our fabulous GOLDEN DAFFODILS stamp set.
Hi friends! Today I have a card using the Golden Daffodils Stamp Set, which features a beautiful daffodil collage image from Visible Image.
Let’s get started, shall we!
In the daffodil collage image there is some script at the bottom of the flower on either side of it. To start I placed the stamp on an acrylic block with only the script on the side of the image and stamped it using a waterproof ink and stamped the image on the side of a piece of watercolour paper. I repeated this but switched the side of the stamp and stamped it on the opposite side of the paper. Any ink that I got on the rest of the image I simply wiped off using a cotton bud.
I added another small background image from the Grunge Tones Stamp Set and used the Renaissance Stencil to add some texture to it with some texture paste. I realized I had gone too far up on the paper with the texture paste, so while it was still a bit soft I scraped some of it off using a palette knife. This allowed me to stamp the entire image without too much of the paste interfering with the image and it also added a bit more texture to it.
I used a few different colours of pigment powders, in shades of yellow and green. I added the colour in layers, starting light and then added more as each layer dried. Once that was all dry I added some Gilded Foundry Wax over the texture paste.
I stamped out the sentiment using the same watercolour paper, to keep it looking cohesive and so that the cardstock was the same colour. I then adhered it directly to an A2 sized cardbase and that was it.
