Mother's Day Card

I'm on a roll this weekend with the AECP assignments.

This next card is based on the techniques in the Beautiful Details class. Of all the classes I find this most challenging because I'm a fairly impatient cardmaker.  Most of the cards I make take 15 minutes or so to colour and put together.  This one took some time but I think I love the results.

The Altenew product I used are

The colouring medium I used are Copic markers with Prismacolor pencils.

I used only the outline stamps for the flower and leaf and stamped using Memento Desert Storm ink. This ink works really well with Copic markers.

The copic markers I used are R12, R11, R00 for the flower and YG25, YG23 and Y21 for the leaves. I selected a slightly darker shade of peach and soft yellow pencil for the flower and a darker shade of leaf green pencil. The idea is to add shading and fine lines to the imagse to give it more details than the markers could.

The background is a piece of watercolour cardstock. I sponged some Distress Oxide Tattered Rose and Squeezed Lemonade lightly and added some gold shimmer ink spritz with a small brush.

The sentiment is from the Wild Hibiscus set and I stamped it using the Peach Perfect ink.

I hope you like the card.
