I was thrilled to get some of the 2021 early Hero Arts Stamp Shop Box releases from The Ink Pad (which are so super-cool they sold out but are now back in stock). I am also thrilled to be Guest Designing at the Ink Pad Blog to share my first card.
I had lots of fun playing with the new Cut & Color Layering Flower Power Set. There are actually 8 different layering stamps in the set. I used them all, but you can certainly use different combinations to create lots of possibilities.
Some things I learned in my stamp layering process were to use the centers of the flowers to help you align the hair layers … and use the eyes to help align the face.
I also re-inked the lips on that stamp with a slightly darker color for more contrast (yay for the MISTI).
I paired her gorgeous face with a background created with Karin Markers and another Gel Press Print cut with Hero Arts Nesting Dies.
I love how there was a separate stamp for the iris of the eye, so I could match them to the colors in her hair.
To finish the design, I couldn't resist adding tiny bits of purple bling in her hair.
Who in your life needs to hear that they are beautiful? What better way to tell them than a card they can treasure.
