Joy Clair Designs | Cup of Joy | Happy Mother's Day

Today Is Release day for Joy Clair Designs' Cup Of Joy Stamp set.

 

I wanted to focus on some of the smaller images when I created with this set. This blog is part of a blog hop. You should have come from Donna Idlet and the next stop in the hop is Linda Gorman

I guess first thing is first, I'm now officially a Brand Ambassador for this company. Joy Clair Designs has been around a while and I have a few sets in my collection but recently it was purchased and the inventory is changing. The owner Martha is hosting new releases monthly and has an amazing team to showcase her stamp sets, I'm so excited to be in their company as well! 

I created background paper using the florals and made them different sizes. I printed this out onto some natural colored cardstock. I ink blended cracked pistachio distress oxide over the panel  but focused on the edges, leaving the center light.

Using the color perfect pearl from Perfect Pearls, I watered down just a tiny bit of the powder and painted it onto one style of flowers, that 5 petal flower. And added some black splatter over the panel by watering down some black soot distress ink.

I colored the florals with Copic markers and fussy cut them out. The sentiment comes with the set and I simply trimmed it out and popped it up with foam adhesive. A few of those flowers are also popped up.

A "nest" of black thread add to the whimsical nature of this floral. All anchored by a black strip edged with LFL silver peel offs, a few black sequins and some glossy accents finish this flower cluster off.

Thank you so much for stopping by and I'm so excited to see the rest of the cards from the other designers. Oh and there is a giveaway! Look at these details!!! <--- also three exclamation points means I'm super excited. ;) Look at this prize!
