Pinkfresh Studio {Your Potential to Succeed is Infinite}

Hello friends! I have a fun floral card to share with you today using the new Infinite Blooms stamp set! I created this for the February Pinkfresh Studio Facebook challenge. You can see the inspiration photo below and I chose to use Dilay's fabulous card as the springboard for mine. I love how she die cut the floral panel to create a camouflage look. I chose to do a simpler version of this on the plaid panel.

To begin, I die cut the floral piece using the Infinite Blooms die and then stamped it using the infinite Blooms stamp set. Once that was done, I used an assortment of alcohol markers to color the flowers and foliage. 

I set the colored bouquet aside and got to work creating the background panel. I couldn't decided between a purple background (to keep with the inspiration card) or blue. As you can see, the blue ended up winning! I used the Simple Plaid Stencil Set paired withOcean Breeze and Aquamarine ink. 

Once that was done, I carefully chose where I wanted to do my "camouflage" cutting. I used the bouquet for placement and then used Washi tape to secure the smaller of the two Essentials: Stitched Scallop Rectangles. Once it was cut, I layered the bigger portion to a top folding A2 cardbase and then added the scallop portion using foam squares to give it dimension. I threw the center portion away so that I could stamp the sentiment onto the white portion. 

I used my mini MISTI to get it lined up just right and to get a good impression.  I also added some Aquamarine ink splatter for added detail.

At this point I was able to add the bouquet using additional foam squares. I also added glitter and jewels for some sparkle and shine! I hope you get a chance to join us this month! Thanks for fluttering by!
