Hello and welcome! I’m very excited and honored to be joining Simon Says Stamp today for their Let’s Connect Release Blog Hop. The Let’s Connect release is filled with fun products, there’s is something for everyone. I have already shared a take on my 2 favorites yesterday –  Reverse Crackle Background and floral set Summer Roses, you can see that post/card HERE.

My today’s project takes a look at the Spring Flowers Background stamp, Copic coloring, and jewels!

CARD DETAILS

What you probably can’t see on the photo of the card above, are the tiny black jewels I added to the negative part of the background. I enjoy using this trick lately, adding jewels to the backgrounds of my cards to diversify them (see another example/idea HERE). They provide quite a wow to my cards and also add a nice tactile experience to the project.

I made this card by Gold heat embossing the Spring Flowers Background stamp on Neenah 80lb cardstock. Next, I used my Copic markers and colored the flowers and the background.

If you are afraid to color with Copic markers over heat embossing, there’s is a workaround I share. You’ll need a MISTI stamping tool for that. See the workaround HERE.

I used the following marker colors: C9, E00, E02, R20, RV10, RV11, R83, Y08, Y15, Y17, YG01, YG03, YG17. Once my coloring was done I adhered the panel onto the A2 white card base.

Next, I added a sentiment using Simon’s pre-printed sentiment cards. Finally, I adhered a bunch of black jewels from Pretty Pink Posh over the black colored negative space of the card.

  1. Love, love, love this card. Color makes me happy! I’ve never colored an entire background with dark/black copic so that is something i’ll have to work up my courage to try. lol

Like what you see? Drop me a comment! Thanks!
