Flower Silhouettes | MFT Stamps

April 29, 2019

Hello, crafty friends!  With Mother’s Day right around the corner here in the US, the Flower Silhouettes Set from My Favorite Things can be a perfect choice for your Mother’s Day cards!

I love how this kit can be used to create all types of floral cards.  I used a watercolor stamping technique today, similar to that of a card that I had presented last week.  If you had missed that post, it’s basically inking up an image and then spritzing it lightly with water each time before you stamp.

This time, I combined my images with the Flower Vase Die-namics to create a beautiful flower bouquet.  I love how this fits beautifully on a slimline card (measuring at 8.5″ tall x 3.5″ wide).  I used a piece of Primitive Cream Card Stock for my base and splattered it lightly with some brown watercolor paint.

Once dry, I then stamped my sentiment with some Milk Chocolate Ink a couple of times with my Misti Stamping Tool.  I then added a strip of both Milk Chocolate and Kraft Card Stock at the bottom for some added interest.

I diecut the vase from some Ranger Watercolor Paper and then used some teal green watercolors to paint it.  I used a couple of layers to give the color some depth and let some water dry in various lines across the image to look like cracks in the vase.

I also used Ranger Watercolor Paper to stamp my images and cut each flower piece out with it’s coordinating die.  I used Distress Inks to stamp my images but most slow drying inks should work wonderfully with this technique.

Distress Inks Colors Used For Flowers:

Greens: Twisted Citron, Mowed Lawn, and Peeled Paint

Yellow: Squeezed Lemonade, Scattered Straw, and Fossilized Amber

Purple: Shaded Lilac and Blueprint Sketch

Pink: Spun Sugar and Worn Lipstick

Mint Green: Cracked Pistachio and Evergreen Bough

Blue: Tumbled Glass and Salty Ocean

There are still a few kits available for purchase at a bundle discount.  Otherwise, you can purchase each set separately and work on collecting this set at your own pace.
