Floral birthday with brushos and Sprinkle It powder.

 

Hi everyone, I'm hoping to catch up on a few cards that I need this weekend.
This one uses a new to me Memory Box die called Painted Flower Stems.

The flowers are diecut it from a sheet of watercolour paper that I'd used to mop up some leftover sandstone coloured brushos.
 I didn't want the base so cut it off. The stems are coloured with a peeled paint distress marker, then on another scrap of watercolour paper I added some more sandstone brushos with some Sprinkle it. This one is a gold pigment that works with the brushos when you spritz them with water.

Here's a closer look at the shimmer. The sprinkle it doesn't seem to over power the colour of the brushos, although I'm still experimenting with them.


I diecut another flower set and glued them together for dimension.
The sentiment is a sticker from my stash.

I'm linking up to these challenges:

At Simon Says Work it Wednesday the theme is green and gold,
and at Simon Says Stamp Wednesday there are no stamps allowed.

At Addicted to Stamps & More it's a clean and simple theme.


The Flower Challenge wants us to use our latest stamps or dies.


Inkspirational want us to use our stash.
I've used new dies and sprinkle it and from my old stash, the sentiment sticker.


Supplies:
Memory Box pained flower stems die; Colourcraft brushos and Sprinkle It; distress ink marker; sentiment sticker.

Thanks for visiting,
