For my first card today I have used Cornish Heritage Farms Antiques stamp set. To create my card I first stamped out this main image twice onto white card, one image stamped in black and the other stamped with versamark ink and the embossed using white powder.
On the white embossed panel I used the Faber-Castell’s Gelatos to create my background. I used the Pistachio from the Green Gelatos pack and Cotton Candy & Blueberry from the Blue Gelatos pack. This panel was then cut in half so it could be placed on either side of the main image.
On the panel stamped in black (the middle panel I then colored the image using Aquarelle Pencils and the Stampers Big Brush Pen from the Mixed Media Aquarelle & Ink: BLUE and Mixed Media Aquarelle & Ink: GREEN sets as well as Gelatos from the Red Gelatos pack.
The Circle piece as also colored as per the main panel. I stamped two butterflies from the stamp set onto white card using black ink and then colored these using colors in the Blue Gelatos pack.

For my second card today I have used Cornish Heritage Farms Toile Backgrounder. For this card I used the Popping Pastels technique.

The sentiment on the top of the card is from the Script Essential Expressions stamp set.

Great cards and I love the colourful and interesting techniques you used on your cards. They both really pop the details on the stamps and are so pretty. I have the stamp set with the lace image but I like how you blocked the design. Thanks for sharing the tutorial! :)
