This week's challenge them is  Bright and Cheerful!

This week I am featuring gorgeous Simon Says Stamp Zippy Zinnias emboss and cut folder. I just love Simon's 3d embossing folders especially when it includes a die to make it even more dimensional!
I began with a panel of white cardstock trimmed down to leave a bit of a border on an A2 size card base. I ran it through the 3d embossing folder. I then began to color each of the blooms with copic markers.
I used one of the three dies that are included to cut out a flower and pop it up off the card using 3d foam squares. I ink blended the edges of the panel with light gray distress ink. I then used gray copic markers to color in around the flowers for a bit of contrast.
I used a bit of gray and white ink splatter to finish the panel up. I then die cut the sentiment from orange cardstock and adhered it to a strip of vellum that I stamped the sub-sentiment on with white ink and heat set that with white embossing powder. I added a few enamel dots for that extra something!
I hope you enjoyed this project and got some inspiration. I have provided affiliate links to all the products used in this project at no additional costs to you. Thanks for stopping by and happy crafting!
