ID: MC May/15 - Ryn Hibiscus - Thanks - No Act Of Kindness cards
size: 4.25"w x 5.5"h

I just got the newest stamp set from Designs By Ryn "Hibiscus" and it's a beautiful 8 pce set BIG GRIN so had to use them right away. I also made silhouette images so I could cut the outline with my electronic cutter and avoid fussy cutting everything and that's another BIG GRIN...

I'm using the newest "Thanks" die on the outside and part of the "Thanks - cuddler set", plus "No Act of Kindness" quote stamp on the inside from Quietfire Design

("Thanks - Cuddler set" - 7pce set); ("No act of Kindness..."); ("Thanks" die)

Adhered the negative die cut shape from a previous project (Nellie's Designs "Vintasia Frame die set) which I had sponged with some purples.

Cut out the silhouette images of flowers and leaves, stamped using Versafine Black Onyx, then returned to my cutting mat. Used Brusho's powder pigments and misting with water. Removed from my mat and dried, then tooled with a large balled stylus. Adhered to card front only on the lower edges of each stamp so that it would be a 3D effect. Added some pearl elements (Marianne Designs "Flowers") to each center. They're another new acquisition that are so pretty.

Die cut the "Thanks" from a scrap piece of the Brusho painted cardstock and also only adhered on it's lower edge.

On the inside: stamped the flowers using Distress mini ink pads (Mustard Seed all over, "Ripe Persimmon" streaked on close to center, then "Mowed Lawn" in the center) misted with water and stamped.

The two side flowers (the persimmon all over then "Fired Brick" here and there and then the green center) misted with water and stamped. Note the yellow flower was masked prior the side flowers being stamped.

The leaves: (Crushed Olive all over and here and there with Mowed Lawn) misted with water and stamped, again masking of the red flowers.

Stamped the sentiment using the black.

Inside Left Side: created another Brush background using yellow, scarlet, turquoise - misting with water, manipulating the wetness then drying and trimming down to size.

Stamped the quote with the black and clear embossed.
