Calming Camellia

I really had fun playing with Calming Camellia. I wanted to use the leaves too when creating with this set. If you remember from last week, the cards all had the gorgeous flower grouping on them. So this time I pulled the leaves out and created a few more cards. 

Granny Apple Green is the hero on this card. The top layer was embossed with Hive and I used the debossed side. You can see how the honeycomb looks like it is sunken in, that is the debossed side of the cardstock. The embossed side would have the honeycomb raised. It really doesn't matter much. Both sides are pretty! The stems are from the Bough punch. This punch has two boughs that you can punch out. I only used the one.

Sale-a-bration always has amazing goodies that you can get for free. One is this fantastic stamp set called Calming Camellia. This set can be yours with a $300 workshop. Let's plan a day to create with some of your friends and get this set into your hot little hands!

I started with Cherry Cobbler cardstock. I stamped the camellias with Cherry Cobbler ink and then colored in the flowers with a blender pen and white craft ink. My re-fill for my craft ink needed to be shaken up more before I used it as it was sitting for a while. I ended up putting two coats of ink on the flowers. You probably wouldn't have to if your ink is all mixed. This technique is called whitewash.

I did create this card on a Facebook Live. You can watch that HERE.
