Orange blossom

It's Tuesday and I've got a floral card to brighten your day!  I'm using digital stamps from Polka Dot Orchard.  You can find the links below to the sets I used.  They are Good Morning Spring and Flowers in Bloom.

I actually painted this flower awhile ago but finally found time to turn it into a card!  The orange flower is from the Good Morning Spring digital stamp set.  I lightened the lines to gray and printed it out onto watercolor cardstock.  Then I used several shades of orange and red from the Kuretake Gansai watercolor paint set on flower.  I added a bit of greens to the leaves and a few shades of browns for the center.  Once it was dry, I fussy cut it out with scissors.

The card itself is pretty simple.  The card base is Neenah Solar White cardstock.  I cut two pieces of patterened paper from Doodlebug's Sweet Summer paper pad.  I sponged around the edges of both pieces with a dark green ink.  I glued them down.  For the little orange strip I used a Stitched Scalloped border die from Lawn Fawn.  I glued it over the seam of the two pieces of paper.  

It's hard to see but I did add some splatters of copper paint and gold paint.  I used foam tape on the back of the orange flower and attached it to the card.  The sentiment comes from the Flowers in Bloom digital stamp set.  I printed it out onto white cardstock and trimmed it down.  I sponged around the edges with orange ink and glued it to the card.

For the final step I added Orange Soda glitter Nuvo drops.  That's all there is to it!

I hope to see you soon!
