Sending hugs and prayers

Hello everyone!

I have a card that I wanted to share today with you!
The images for this card I colored  some days ago for The daily marker 30 days hosted by Kathy Racoosin and since then I wanted to make this card , but just didnt't turn out how I wanted.
Sometimes when you feel that something doesn't turn out as you want you just walk away from it and come later :) it helped me to see what I didn't like and what I wanted to change to my card!
 And finally I got my card done and I was happy with !

For this card I used Simon Says Stamp - Friendship Blooms which I set that I absolutely love! Those flowers are so pretty and love love the font on this stamp set!
I colored my flowers and leafes using Spectrum Noir Alcohol Markers .
To add a bit of interest I ink blended a pink and a yellow ink in the background to match with the flowers and to ground everything I added a frame.



To finish up my card I added some Pretty Pink Posh sequins, and my card was ready!
Thank you so much for stopping by today! Have a great day!

    What a lovely card, Alexandra. I love how you've let some of the petals and leaves hang over the frame, and the softly inked background works so well behind the flowers. I'm so glad you shared your card at Just Us Girls this week.

Hello everyone! I have another card that I want to share today! For this card I inked the upper part of my panel with Picked raspberry Distress ink and stamped the cup of coffee and the frappe glas with the same ink . The stamps I used are from Create a Smile same as the sentiment which I embossed with white WOW embossing powder. Since I didn't had a bigger frappe glas i decided to draw one myself and then I colored with Stabilo markers on watercolor paper! To finish up I added some Pretty Pink Posh sequins!
