Happy Wednesday! I made a card for this week's Make it Mondays challenge! Yay! It's about making your own shimmer sprays. I made a very subtle one with Hawaiian Shores ink to use on my card:
It is so subtle because I don't own any reinkers yet and had to scrape off some ink from my inkpad. Ha. First I used the spray on the background then I stamped text from the textstyle set with Hawaiian Shores. Before stamping I wiped off a lot of ink with a baby wipe, I wanted it to be subtle, too. The larkspur is stamped with brown pigment ink and I colored the blossoms with that shimmer spray and a brush. My own larkspurs in the garden are growing well, can't wait for them to bloom! And the peonies are about to open any day now! Oh, but enough of this - here is a close-up of the shine:
I know that larkspurs come in that deep, beautiful blue, but I didn't have that color available. Hope you like it nonetheless!
Did you order from the newest release? I just did today because I wanted to wait for another payment to arrive. And now the Seed Packet Die isn't available!!! Doh! Wish I hadn't waited so long. I NEED that die! There are soo many ideas for it in my head already! One for my girl's birthday.
I hope you are having a sunny day! Thanks for visiting and don't forget about my giveaway!
Hugs,
Vanessa

beautiful card, vanessa:) i did get all of the garden stuff ordered, i'm sure they will get more in stock quickly:) i just loved all of it!
Love this. I hope you can live without that die for a little while. I didn't get it either, but maybe if some birthday money shows up later this summer it will make it into my cart.
Dezent und doch aussagekräftig! Wunderbar gelungen ist Dir auch diese Karte.
Liebe Grüße, Tina
