I LOVE the doily and all the other options: stickers, lovely paper and stamp set. Where to start??

I used the Hope & Kindness coordinating cardstock from the Paper Bundle and stickers as well as fussy cut flowers from the paper.  The doily is cut from papaya card stock, the glitter trim is rose gold. the stitching around the edge is from the 05 white gel pen.  The card base is the dark Harbour cardstock from the Hope & Kindness Coordinating CS.  The inspiration for this card came from the Love of Color vol. 2 pages 12 & 13.  I turned the design on it's side. 

May SOTM - You Can Do Anything Blog Hop

 

This month, CTMH Stamp of the Month is switching from a blog hop to posting our creations on

Melinda Everitt's CTMH Artwork Showcase

A couple weeks ago I was enjoying a day crop at the Fir's Conference Center in Bellingham, WA.  A friend was creating a panel card and I immediately knew what I wanted to do with the May SOTM mountain scene 

so here's the card that I was able to create.

This was really easy to do.  I masked the mountains to ink the sky using Distress Oxide inks. The sun is inked with Spiced Marmalade, the sky is layered with Chipped Sapphire and Peacock Feathers.
For the water reflection I used watercolor pencil (Ocean) and a little water. The shadows on the mountain were supposed to be Charcoal, though I grabbed the Chocolate watercolor pencil 😂- I must need new glasses!! LOL
The trees were stamped with Avocado ink and varied first/second generation stamping.
The panels were backed with Sapphire Card Stock
