During the week I received this stamp set as a challenge prize from the lovely Brenda at Allsorts (thanks again Brenda!). I couldn't wait to use it.
I stamped the image twice, once on the card panel and once on spare card to use as a mask. I spritzed the card with water and splattered with Colour Fusion powders, more spritzing, more powders before removing the mask. The when it was dry I put 2 in 1 glue on random flower petals and some parts of the background, when dry added gilding flakes (OMG how does anyone control them? I ended up covered in little bits!), rubbing the excess off. I wanted the stamp to be the hero of the card, so didn't colour anything else.
Also: Colour Fusion powders, Cosmic Shimmer gilding flakes.

Gorgeous card Carol. x
Really like your treatment of your new stamp Carol, leaving the image uncoloured really draws the eye in. Nice idea adding the hints of gilding flakes.
Many thanks for joining us at Allsorts challenge.
