Gallery Blooms in Gorgeous Grape

Gallery Blooms Bundle + Simply Said Stamp Set + Exposed Brick Embossing Folder

 This weeks Crafty Collaborations Monochromatic Insta Hop color is Gorgeous Grape.  To be super honest, all week I couldn't figure out what I was going to create with this color.  But when I sat down with my tried and true Gallery Blooms Bundle, it came together very quickly.   I am rather smitten with how this card turned out!


Gallery Blooms Bundle + Simply Said Stamp Set + Exposed Brick Embossing Folder

I used blender pens & ink to color in the flowers and leaves.  Then I added a little extra pop to the center of the bigger flowers by coloring the centers with Basic Black Stampin' Blends.  You can see here how easy it is to layer the flowers.

I could have just stamped the inner flower on the inner message liner, but I really like the look of the leaves overlapping the matte border.
