Cheer up cards

by - July 28, 2017

Hello everyone,
these cards are very near and dear to me. Since I was diagnosed with cancer, I read a lot in Facebook groups where other patients or their relatives share their experiences. Often there are people who have to suffer a setback. That's why I thought that maybe some would need something to bring a smile to them and so I want to give them away.

For my first card I covered a piece of cardstock with the Nuvo Embellishment Mousse in "Pure Platinum". Then I stamped the flowers from the WPlus9 "Modern Peonies" set with Versamark ink onto a piece of watercolor paper, heat embossed it with white embossing powder and colored them with my Schmincke watercolors.
From a foiled toner sheet I die cut a border with the Hero Arts Infinity Dies and also die cut my sentiment with the "Stay Positive" dies by Alexandra Renke. To finish off my card I adhered everything together onto my background.
