I had a burst of creativity today! I had a project that was weighing me down creatively, but I finished it. As a result, I am very much ready to play in my crafty space.
Here is the graphic for Fusion, the title is Saint Paddy's Day. But I took a different turn with it.
I was very much influenced by the white and yellow flowers, as well as the abundant greenery.
I'm working my way through my bin of un-inked stamps and decided to play with WPlus 9's rose builder. For a layering stamp it is fairly easy to use. I stamped three of the layers for the big rose, using the same ink color on the two biggest layers, I simply stamped it 4 times for the second layer. I used two colors for the smaller rose along with two of the three stamps. Along with the stamps, I used the cut and stamp set from SSS/HA Prayers, and an embossing folder from Stampin Up. Inks for the roses were HA Soft Granite and SSS Fog for the grays; SSS Duckling and HA Soft Vanilla.
Thanks much for stopping by!
