Summer Hibiscus
Hi Everyone! It’s Melissa here with you today, bringing you some summer sunshine! I absolutely adore the June Pretty Pink Posh Release and have been creating some fresh, fruity, summertime goodness to share with you. Let’s get started!
I began by using the new Watercolor Strips Masks Stencils. I used a variety of colors to mimic a sunset or sunrise on a warm summer day. I think these stencils would be so much fun to create a plaid background with…I’ll try that with my next card :).
Next, I die cut flowers and leaves using the Tropical Leaves Dies and Hibiscus Flowers Dies. I cut them from shades of green and pink and then added a bit of ink blending to deepen and brighten the colors a bit. I arranged them in the center of my card in a fun tropical cluster.
To finish my card, I used the Happy Summer stamp set and coordinating dies and added this across the center of my flowers. I added a second sentiment from the same stamp set and added it to a trimmed banner from the Banner Greetings 2 die.
I had the best time creating this card and have a coordinating reel for it that you can spot in Instagram! Happy Summer crafting!
