Friends & Flowers : Floral card

Hi Bloggy pals,

Coloring and Cardmaking are the routines in my 'Me' time. It's hard to get a stretch of few hours to play my favorite Mixed media techniques.

Nevertheless, Calligraphy and Coloring taking much of my time and making my days :) 

Over to my card,






  • Stamped Mudra Wild rose onto Canson Montval watercolor paper in Antique Linen DI.
  • Watercolored using Gansai Tambi watercolors.
  • Highlighted and deepened the shadows using Prisma colored pencils.
  • Fussy cut the florals and set aside.
  • Took a grey cardstock and cut one edge using MFT bracket edge duo die.
  • Then embossed the panel using an embossing folder.
  • Stamped the sentiment from IBS on the cardbase.
  • Matted this embossed die-cut panel over A2 sized white top fold cardbase.
  • Splashed 
  • Generously watered down White acrylic over embossed panel and fussy cut florals.
  • Mounted the florals using foam adhesives as well as double sided tapes for dimension.
  • Added few white pearls as accents.
Hope you like it!

Thanks for stopping by!

What a beautiful card, Sathya!!! Your deep embossing of the gray cardstock almost makes it look like it's a tone-on-tone die cut! Terrific job watercoloring the flowers - the pencil highlighting really makes them seem to have depth. Thank you so much for sharing your creative talents with us at Double Trouble!!! -Donna
