I've had this sweet watering can stamp for a while and hadn't used it yet so I pulled it out, along with the coordinating die. I thought it would work really well with these papers for the Country Flair challenge over at Heart 2 Heart Challenges this week. I always prefer working with a sketch, and definitely didn't want make my own today, so I went with my old standby of Mojo Monday. I wasn't sure at first how this week's sketch would work for this card, but can I just say that I LOVE it?! I'm also going to join in on the Anniversary Challenge at Our Daily Bread Designs; you just have to use ODBD stamps.
I used papers from the Jubilee paper pack from Close To My Heart, some woodgrain washi tape from CTMH, and a purple floral washi tape (that I think is from Love My Tapes). I used a Spellbinders round die for my circle, sponging some Cashmere ink (CTMH) inside for added depth.
The Watering Can stamp and coordinating die are from Our Daily Bread Designs. The image is stamped in Memento Rich Cocoa ink, then die cut with the matching die. I colored the image using Copic markers. Here is a list of the colors I used:
- E07, E08, E09 (can)
- YG61, YG63, YG67
- BV02, BV04, BV08
- Y11, Y13, Y15
- R22, R24, R27
- YR04, YR07, YR27
Beautiful card Lori. Love the way you've coloured the watering can and flowers and they stand out beautifully against the yellow circle. Thanks for joining us this week in the ODBD Shining the Light challenge. Elizabeth
