Another Scramble... more fun

Good Morning,

This weekend has been busy for me.  I was able to squeeze in another Hero Arts Quick Card scramble.  I find these so much fun.   This time I used the time to make a birthday card for my best friend.  I can't believe how easy the design came to me.  



The photo doesn't do this card justice.   It came out really nice in person. 

The challenge this time was to use either your oldest or newest Hero Arts stamp.   This was Hero Arts Vase Trio.  I hadn't even used it yet. 

So I stamped each one on a 2 X 2 piece of white card stock.  (I wish I would have inked them around the edges).  I wanted each one to be a done a little different.  So starting from left to right.

For the left vase I used flower soft on each of the flowers.  I haven't worked with this medium in a while and I think I need to go back and practice more.  I added some Viva Pearl Pen for the flower centers.  Then used copics and marvy markers for the vase. 

For the center vase I used gel pens that sparkled and center once again used the Viva Pearl Pen.  Again using copic and marvy markers for the vase.  

The vase on the right.  I stamped twice.  One I cut out.  I colored them both the same.  Using sparkle gel pens.  Then I pop dotted the one I cut out on top of the stamped image.  Again I used Viva Pearl Pen for the centers. 

The ribbon is verigated in color of purple and blue to match the color schemes. 

Happy Birthday stamp from Stampabilities. 

The scramble was so much fun.  Thanks Judy for hosting!
