I wanted to join in the AlteNew May Inspiration Challenge, so I'm sneaking my card in under the wire.
I loved the weathered white background with the shadows … and how it contrasted with the single bloom. I didn't think I had enough variation in my purple inks to get the contrasts between the layers on the AlteNew Build-A-Flower Hibiscus, so I started with Yellow and then moved to my darkest purple ink. For this flower, I actually found it easier to stamp the third layer first, and then move backward and forward with the lighter and darker colors (it made the aligning easier for me).
I used a single row of double foam tape for my flower & leaf, so I could get the curling dimension on both.
I found a piece of white weathered wood designer paper and then I embossed it with some ragged lines. Next I brushed on some grey ink to bring in the shadow effect from the Inspiration Photo. The Thank You sentiment is also from the Build-A Flower Hibiscus Set.
I'm also joining the Use a Die Cut Challenge at CCEE Stampers.
