Hello Floral 7x5in card hand coloured - Day 1 of my 365 day challenge

Hello Floral 7x5in card hand coloured 

Hi all you craft addicts out there!

So I hope you all had a brilliant Christmas and will have an even better New Year!

I have decided to once again do one craft item a day challenge and will start with this very simple but stylish "Hello" 7" x 5" card.

How I made this card....

• The main focal point is one of the Synergy dies from Stamps by Me which cuts in the cardstock so I used a piece of black card approximately 9x13cm and cut the flowers out and then added it so some white card.
• I then coloured the flowers using Zig Clean Colour pens (yellows, oranges, pinks, purples and green shades) and a water brush to add some shading - you could use alcohol markers or pencils if you like!
• Once dry, I then edged the card using a purple alcohol marker and stuck it to the centre of a 7" x 5" card.
• I also used some Peel off stickers to add a different feeling to it and then finally stamped the "Hello" sentiment with Onyx Black Versafine ink onto some white card and again edged it in the purple alcohol marker.
• I added it to the card using some foam pads.

And there you are - a card that can be used for any occasion - you could also make home decor with it too!
