Flamingo Cards by August Guest Designer Kara Pogreba



Hello! It's Kara here again and today I've created three variations using the same stamp, the new Flamingo Flock Stamp Set, and the same card design using the largest die from the Framework Die Set.  The first card was stamped in black and colored with Copics from the red-violet family.

The second card was also stamped in black and colored with Copics from the red family to match the color of the flamingos I found when I Googled them.

 The third card was stamped in light pink and colored with the same colors as the first card.

  1. These cards are absolutely FABULOUS Kara!! All 3 are colored to perfection, but I admit I'm drawn to the 3rd card where you stamped first in the pink...it looks brighter without the dark outlines. Your beautiful coloring constantly amazes me and each one of these cards are STUNNING!! Well done my friend! :0)
