One of the things I really enjoy about working with clear stamps is being able to bend them into new shapes ~ like this flower stem. It is actually shown as a straight stem on the panel and that's how I've been using it. However, on my card for today, I curved it in different ways on each of the flowers. They kind of look wind blown.
For my flower buds, I colored them using 3 shades of yellow Copic markers (Y21, Y15, Y17), added some Lemon Drop Sparkly Fluff, cut them out & popped them up with Zva foam adhesive dots. And don't you just love this super bright pattern paper? It's part of the new DeLovely Collection by Cosmo Cricket.
Side Note: Did you know that on Cosmo's 6x6 paper pads they scale down the pattern especially for cards? Not all companies do that so beware when you buy their 12x12 patterns, they are much bigger (learned that the hard way).
Head on over to the OCL blog and have a look at the new challenge card ~ can't wait to see what you come up with.
