Simon Says Stamp Always There Bog Hop - Day 2

I'm so happy to be participating in day 2 of the Simon Says Stamp Always There blog hop. I hope you get some inspiration and enjoy the giveaway and a special offer for this blog hop. This cute stamp set will automatically be added to your cart with any purchase from this release while supplies last.👇👇👇  
Today I am featuring the new Mythic Blooms embossing folder. If you like easy copic coloring to create a fun and beautiful effect, this technique is for you.
Card Base: Smooth white cardstock cut to an A2 top folding size card base.
Background and Focal Point: Quarter sheet of heavy white cardstock that I ran through the embossing folder. I colored each flower and leaf on the "debossed" side of the panel with copic markers. I then used an ink pad that I dragged across the entire top of the panel. 
Sentiment: Yay You die cut from white cardstock three times and adhered together for thickness. The sub-sentiment was stamp on a strip of cardstock and trimmed down and adhered under the sentiment die with foam squares.
I also added a frame die to add interest with foam strips. I used a white gel pen to add a few white centers to the pink small flowers.
I created a quick video to show you the step by step process of this fun technique. Please leave me a comment if you have any questions!
For tons more inspiration make sure you explore day 1 of this hop and visit the Always There gallery. I have listed and linked the supplies I used for this project. To see the entire new Always There release click here. Thanks for stopping by and happy hopping!

    Lovely! I really love that you used gingerbread instead of black. I never thought of using a different color. Great work

    What a fun and happy card, I love all the flowers & the "Yay You" is a perfect sentiment for so many occasions, everything from marking the end of the school year, a new job or promotion, the sky is the limit. Your card shows off the wonderful flower detail of the Mythic Blooms 3D embossing folder & this technique always gives such fun results.

    That card is beautifully color balanced. I like the bright pops of pink that don't overwhelm the card. Nicely done.

Welcome to the Simon Says Stamp Blog party . Today I am sharing three fall themed projects using goodies from the STAMPtember release . 👇Special promotion exclusive for this post!👇 The first project features the Twisted Tree Arch die set , Haunted Pumpkin die set and the cute Trick or Treat 2 die. I used a lot of ink blending and die cutting for this project. I used a cloud border stencil and distress ink to create the background. The trees was cut from dark brown cardstock and everything else was cut from white cardstock and colored with distress inks. Next, I used the gorgeous Mod Forest Embossing folder to create the colors of Autumn. I also used the new Be Patient die cut from gold cardstock. I embossed a white piece of cardstock and used a small blender brush to color in the "valley" side of the embossed panel with distress inks and then dragged a brown ink pad directly over the colored trees creating the distressed autumn scene with a few inks splatters. So fun! Last,...
