Blooming Roses

Hi all and thanks for stopping by today!  It's day 2 of MFT Teaser Time and only a few days away from the release on June 11th at 10 PM EST.  Be sure to check in on the MFT Blog for your chance at winning one of SEVEN $75  Discount Codes you can use to SHOP SHOP SHOP.

I have been stepping out of comfort zone and trying my hand at some mixed media techniques.  It's fun to do something a little different sometimes.  :) 

My card today uses Mona Pendleton's Blooming Roses stamp set and Rose Bouquet Die-namics.



I stamped Art Expression Text in the background and painted over it with gesso.  Over that, I added some texture with Graduated Hexagons Stencil and some Molding Paste.  I made a Large Hybrid Heirloom Rose with Red Hot Card Stock.  I dressed it up with Mod Podge, gesso, and Clear Rock Candy glitter.


I did the same thing for the yellow flower using the Mini Hybrid Heirloom Rose and Lemon Drop Card Stock.  The stems and leaves were stamped using the Blooming Roses stamp set and Gumdrop Green Premium Dye Ink.


I added a small strip of Abstract Art using a technique I learned from Mona (don't use a block, just use your hand).  I added a coat of the new Sheer Shimmer Mist over all of it.  Do you see the subtle shimmer?  I LOVE it.  :)


Here is one more look.
