This is my second post today; please scroll down to see my Lil’ Inker Designs post :)
So I’m back today to share some more from Clearly Besotted Stamps latest release. My first card is a very ‘me’ example. I used three of the new sets on this simple card! The leaf sprig is from Leafy Accents, the cute polka dot heart is from Once Upon A Time and the sentiment is from Full of Surprise.
I cut a die cut shape and heat embossed the leaf sprig in white before using a variety of Distress Inks to give plenty of colour before stamping the music background from Background Builder. I spritzed with water and dotted with a perfect pearls solution before adding a sprinkling of pearls, sentiment on circle die cut and flower. Phew!
Well that’s me for today. I’ll be back tomorrow with more from Lil’ Inker Designs and Clearly Besotted Stamps :)

Beautiful cards! Did you spritz the leaves with water before stamping on the first card? I can’t seem to get my distress markers to create such beautiful blending like you did!
Hehe, Kelly & Wida, yep well out of my comfort zone for the second card! Rachel I coloured the leaves direct to the stamp with the two markers and then ‘huffed’ on the stamp before stamping to the paper. After I’d stamped the leaves I took the darkest marker and added a few flicks with the brush end from the stem out. I love my markers and the intensity of colour is great.
