STAMPIN' UP! WRAPPED BOUQUET MOTHER'S DAY CARD FOR #IB170

The current Inspired By Challenge prompted me to create a Mother's Day card.  For this challenge, we can be inspired by either the photo, the sketch, or both.  I've opted to combine the two.

and

My mind immediately went to Stampin' Up!'s Wrapped Bouquet bundle.  I stamped one of the bunches of flowers in Versamark ink, on Basic White card, and heat-embossed the image with white embossing powder.  I coloured the foliage with Old Olive Stampin' Blends markers, and the flowers with Calypso Coral Stampin' Blends markers.  The "paper" in which my flowers are wrapped is a piece of Crumb Cake card, stamped with the text-type image (on both sides), die cut and sponged with Crumb Cake ink.  The black twine wrapped around it started off as white baker's twine, from the Snail Mail Twine Combo.  I used my Dark Basic Black Stampin' Blends marker to customise it.

Here's a close-up of the flowers, which I've mounted on a Basic White scalloped circle, that has been embossed with the Subtle 3D embossing folder:

The Basic White background on my card has been embossed with the Scripty 3D embossing folder.  I used my Light Calypso Coral Stampin' Blends marker to splatter a bit of colour over the embossed text.

The Old Olive Designer Series Paper piece is matted on a layer of Old Olive card, and raised up on Stampin' Dimensionals.  I stamped the sentiment in Memento Tuxedo Black ink, on a scrap of Basic White card, and flicked some colour from my Light Calypso Coral Stampin' Blends marker over the top.  This small label has been matted on a slightly larger Calypso Coral die-cut piece, that I stamped the text-type image on in Calypso Coral ink before sponging the edges in Calypso Coral ink.  The sentiment has been popped up on Stampin' Dimensionals, to the same height as the dotty Old Olive panel.
