Hello crafty friends! 🌸 Ericka from Strangely Creative here, and today I’m sharing a mixed media card that’s bursting with color, texture, and one of my favorite stamp sets—Petal Power by AALL & Create! I’ve been a longtime fan of Bipasha BK’s gorgeous designs, and this set is just as dreamy and detailed as ever.
I started with one of my gel press prints from the stash (you do keep those around, right? They’re gold!). I stamped the beautiful floral image using Versafine Clair Twilight ink—such a rich, moody hue—and then added some colored pencil details to make those petals pop. Pro tip: My ink was still a tad damp, so I was able to clear emboss the image right over my coloring for extra shine and texture. Totally accidental, but totally fabulous!
To bring in more dimension and interest, I layered on some of the Cobalt Swallowtail washi tape—I love how it plays against the floral design. For my sentiment, I reached for the Bring On The Sentiments set, which has just the right words for bold, artsy cards like this one.
As a final touch, I drew a loose, hand-sketched frame around the border. It’s a little imperfect, a little whimsical, and just the right finish for this layered, artsy piece.
Thanks so much for stopping by today! I hope this inspires you to mix, layer, stamp, and color your heart out this weekend. Until next time—keep creating!
