Today we a special guest post to share. We are featuring more beautiful work from the talented young Brennan Keane!
Hello everyone! I am so excited to be back on the Newton’s Nook blog today! For those of you that don’t know me, my name is Brennan and I’m a 15 year old card maker who loves floral stamps. But you’re not here to learn about me, so let's get into this fall floral card!
For this card, I’ll be using the newest addition to the floral line, the Chrysanthemum Stamp Set! I decided to go for a funky fall look, so instead of coloring the stamp in with your traditional fall colors, I used copic colors RV19 (the darker marker) and V06 (the lighter marker) to create a magenta blend. I then colored in the leaves with G24, doing multiple layers of it to create a slight dimensional effect. I also used Y15 to color in the center of the flower.
To make the background, I used a Catherine Pooler ink pad in the color Glam to create a custom colored cardstock. I then used the Holiday Foliage Stencil, which in my opinion can be a fall or winter stencil, with some Lunar Paste in the color Slippery When Wet to add a little shine to the card! To mount the floral to the card, I used some shape dies from my stash with white and lilac colored cardstock, and glued that all down to the background! Finally, to finish off the card, I added a black matte and called it a day!
I hope you all enjoyed this post! Also, a special thank you so much to Jen and Sam for their continued kindness and support!
I hope that everyone has a great rest of your day and as always, happy crafting!
