Welcome, friends! Today, we're hopping to celebrate Ardyth Percy-Robb's milestone of 1000 YouTube subscribers and we're also celebrating Ardyth's birthday. Congratulations and Happy Birthday, Ardyth! After you've finished watching my video, please leave a comment for your chance to win and then click on the video description below for the next person on the hop.
There are 20 video artists participating in this hop and there are many prizes to be won! If you get lost along the way, please head over to Ardyth's blog for a complete list of video artists participating in this hop!
I created two cards in the same colour theme using Catherine Pooler inks. Catherine Pooler Designs is one of the generous sponsors of today's hop and I will be choosing one lucky commenter from my YouTube video to win his or her choice of two Catherine Pooler inks! What colours are your favourite?
I die cut multiple flowers from the Wild Garden die set using watercolour cardstock. I smooshed five Catherine Pooler inks - Tutti Frutti, Tiki Torch, Tiara, Aquatini and Fiesta Blue - on to my craft sheet and used a wet brush to drag a rainbow of stripes down from the top of the first panel and horizontally across the second panel.
After determining the floral arrangements on both cards, I painted the die cut flowers in the same colours as the panel behind each flower. I left parts of the flowers white so they wouldn't completely disappear into the background.
I left more white on the second card because I felt that whiter flowers were more suited to that particular layout. I used my heat tool to dry the panels and flowers completely before adhering the flowers to their respective panels with glue dots. I chose two sentiments from the Mirror Mirror stamp set and stamped them with Midnight ink.
To finish, I embellished all of the florals with sparkling clear sequins and added pearls in their centres.

Beautiful delicate cards. I love the soft. airy feel to them.
I think I like the one where the flowers cascade downwards the best, but I like both of them.
Very pretty--love the backgrounds.
