My stamping New Year goal is to use my unused stamps. I have a few Lawn Fawn Stamps that have not seen ink, so I used this pretty rose.
I used a thicker Gesso thru a stencil and once dry, added watercolor crayons over it. The image is on a painted BG sheet and I stamped and fussy cut out 2 of the flowers, and layered them for dimension. I added a little Copic Marker for shading. I did the same for the leaves. I added sequins and a simple sentiment.
Stamps are from Lawn Fawn . Please bear with me if I have not been by your blog- I am away and am not getting too much computer time.
Challenges:
Outlawz- Twisted Thursday-AG
Pile it On- Paint- rose and leaf, and watercolor crayon painted over gesso for BG
Cupcake Inspiration- Insp picture- colors from pic used
CAS Mix up- CAS with Mixed Media + Watercoloring
Thanks for stopping by!

Cute image! And I love that background.
What an awesome background for this gorgeous blossom, Shelly! Your card is beautiful!
Fabulous card, Shelly! I love the background work! At first it looked like ric-rac (my second fave after buttons, lol!) Super sweet and just perfect ♥
Gorgeous card, that textured background is amazing and I love the rose too.
I always drool over floral cards. They just are so pretty and I know my mother would have loved anything floral. It must be in my genes. Gorgeous colors and texture. I have several Lawn Fawn sets that I've never used either. I'm going to have to remedy that. Thanks for the reminder and the inspiration. Stay warm and dry!
Such a pretty, pretty card and fabulous background!! Thanks so much for playing with us this week at Cupcake Inspirations!
yep. that was my goal too. just start on my 1st box of stamps and work my way thru all 10 of them and use ALL my stamps at least once this year. bwwwaaahhhaaaa! so far that has NOT happened. seems i always go the same ones. hope you have better luck!

This is really pretty, Shelly. Love the background. Greta idea to use those unused stamps. I have more than a few that I haven't used. That would be a great goal for me too. It's am awesome sentiment.
hi shelly been sick again and just catching up. hope everything's ok. what a pretty card. I'm saving it as a sample of TJ Gesstencilled Crayons from Dec. 2014 because I'd bet money that's the tech you used. xoxo
Years ago, I pinned your card, and just today, I am posting some cards that I used your background idea for. So thank you for the idea! Hope you are well!
