Today’s post is part of a blog hop to showcase the new Friendly Frolic release from Simon Says Stamp. More on the hop below. I created this no line pencils on kraft card using the Sketch Lotus Flowers set. I’ve linked all supplies at the end of this post. Compensated affiliate links used.

On a piece of Toned Grey card, I stamped the Sketch Lotus Flower arrangement in clear embossing ink for a tone on tone look that I could then see and colour easily with Faber Castell pencils.

I added a white gel pen accents to the petals and a few black glaze pen dots to the Lotus flower seed head. I never knew that is what a lotus flower seed head looked like until I came to colour this in and googled it to get a reference.

For the sentiment, I stamped one of the greetings from the Sketch Lotus Flowers set in clear embossing ink on Vellum and white heat embossed before trimming to a banner.

I die cut the panel with a Wonky Rectangle die, folded the sentiment banner over the edge of the panel, wrapped with twine and foam mounted on an Ivory card base. As a final accent, I added a trio of Butterfly Kisses sequins and then paired the card with a Plum Punch envelope from Gina K.
