Hi there friends and fellow crafters, LeeAnn here with my Day 2 post for the Joy Clair Designs May 2020 Release.
Today's projects including cards made using Spring Floral Baskets and Bumble Bear digital stamp sets.
For my first project using Spring Floral Baskets, I think this is my favorite image from the set as I have used it several times. For this card I printed the set, and cut it using my Scan n Cut machine. My pink panel background is a die from KatScrappiness that I just do not use often enough but seemed fitting for his card.
I colored my flower image using Watercolor pencils and blended using Clear Glitter Wink of Stella. I added a few dewdrops to the center of the flowers as well as around the card base attached the sentiment using liquid adhesive and the flower spray using Adhesive tape for slight dimension.
For my second project, this Bumble Bear was just screaming for a shaker element. I used a Sun Ray stencil for the background which I used Fossilized Amber Distress Oxide on a panel of Broken China. My images were first printed using my laser printer, and I used a gold foil that barely took, however it did give a trim. I colored the image using Zig Clean Color Real Brush Markers and on the top honeycomb I used clear glitter Wink of Stella to blend it. The shaker element was made using 2 hexagon shaped dies along with black and gold cardstock. I decided to enclose the "hello Sunshine" sentiment inside the shaker for added fun.
