Silhouette Floral Card for Spellbinders

Lots of lovely new products have arrived at Spellbinders, including the latest release from Simon Hurley and Ranger Ink.  Spellbinders sent me several products to play with and I've been having such a great time! Today's card features Simon's Watercolor Flowers stamp set. I decided to go with a silhouette theme and do some heat embossing. Scroll down for brief details!

(FTC Disclosure: as an affiliate for various companies in the craft industry, I will receive a small commission for purchases made through my convenient affiliate links, at no additional cost to you.)

My first inclination when I saw this stamp set was to create an ink blended sunset with black silhouette flowers. Ink blending is one of my absolute favorite techniques and I have a ton of Ranger products in my arsenal anyway, so let's use them, right?

I chose the distress oxides in Kitsch Flamingo, Spiced Marmalade and Fossilized Amber. This color combination is one that I use often and is my favorite. You just can't go wrong with these pretty colors!

I also splattered a few water droplets around and blotted them with a paper towel.

This is one of those scenarios where I got caught up in the process and forgot to take more pictures, haha. My next step was to do some heat embossing, so I stamped the flowers with clear embossing ink on my card panel, then added my Ranger black embossing powder and melted all that goodness with my craft heat tool.

I also embossed my sentiment as well. If you're able to zoom in, my layered pink cardstock was dry embossed using my Spellbinders Beveled Diamonds 3D embossing folder with my Platinum 6 die cut machine. 

I tried to keep the techniques fairly simple for this card due to time factors because we all need to be able to quickly whip out a card from time to time.

Lastly, I glued on some sequins from my stash that coordinated well with my inky colors.

I have affiliate links to various shops below that carry most of the products that I used today. These links will take you directly to the brand product and are provided at no added cost to you. Please note that Spellbinders and Ranger both carry the stamp set and dies for this floral set, however Scrapbookcom only carries the stamp set at this time. I highly recommend that if you choose to purchase this set, go with the stamps AND dies. There are several outline dies for some of the sentiments and that is a huge plus!

Before I go, Spellbinders is having a flash sale on past club selections thru June 30th, up to 50% off!
