Lilac Flowers

Four flowers seems to be the thing at the moment and my hand drawn calligraphy flowers have been neglected while I've been using the stamps. neglected but not forgotten and I got them out today to make this lilac card.


Lilac flowers drawn with kuretake Calligraphy Pens

What I Used

1 base card in white linen 14cm x 14cm when folded.
An extra piece of white card to draw the images.Calligraphy Pens in English lavender and Orchid (You'll find them in the Elegance set of pens)

Lilac card

3d foam pads

Art and Graphic pen No 56

Sentiment stamp


What I did:

I cut four squares from the spare piece of white card and drew four flowers with the calligraphy pens. I did them slightly off centre. I used the green Art and Graphics to draw stems and leaves.

I used 3d foam pads to stick them to the piece of lilac card and made sure to leave a border all around the squares.

I then stuck this lilac card to the base card.

I drew around the base card with a dot and a dash line .

I stamped the sentiment at the bottom of the card.

I wonder what will come next. I won't commit myself as I need to see what mood I'm in.
