Glorious Day - Just Add Ink #446

Hello I am back today to share a card I created for the Just Add Ink inspiration challenge.  This week's inspiration picture is bright and beautiful.

For my card I broke out an embossing folder, which I had not used for a very long time, some Distress Inks and some floral dies.

The first thing I did was take some Distress Ink pads and smoosh them onto a craft sheet.  I sprayed the ink with water and then pounced some 110lb white card stock into the ink several times each in order to add colour and texture.

The largest piece of card stock was coloured with Mermaid Lagoon Distress ink and then cut with the largest die in the Blueprints 13 die-namics from MFT Stamps.  I then took that die cut panel and embossed it using the Circuit - Cuttlebug-Geometric Rings embossing folder.

I created the flowers by cutting the other three coloured card stocks with the Stitched Blooms die-namics, also from MFT Stamps.  I cut a stitched circle and stamped the sentiment from the Dot Flourisheds stamp set from Hero Arts and then glued the florals around the circle.  The last thing I did was to pop up the floral "wreath" onto the card front with Foam Tape.

I am so happy with how my card turned out and I hope you like it too.

Below is a list of the supplies I used.
