Tim Holtz/Stampers Anonymous - Abstract Florals

Hello my friends, I'm back to share a trio of cards I made for the YouTube Live launch of Tim Holtz/Stampers Anonymous new stamps and stencils using Abstract Florals. I love the bold statement these beautiful images make on a card and decided to keep the background fairly simple using Alcohol Inks.

I trimmed Ranger White Yupo to create 3 - 4" x 5.1/4" panels, stamped the images and sentiments from Abstract Florals, inked with Black Soot Distress Archival ink, sprinkled with Ranger Black Embossing Powder and heat set. The Yupo is a plastic substrate and is prone to warping when heated, so I made sure my heat gun was good and hot and kept it moving until the powder melted.
I added drops of Dijon and Moss Alcohol inks with a little Blending Solution to the felt pad on a Mini Round Blending Tool and pounced on to the panels.
I matted the panels on to Distress Black HeavyStock trimmed 1/8" larger and added dots to mimic the dots around the images using a Sakura Black Glaze Pen.
To finish I matted the panels on to top and side folding A2 white card blanks.
