“Touch of White” Tulip Floral Card!

Hello and Welcome!!!

Watch video tutorial here!!!

I had previously done a set of floral cards using a “”Touch of Gold” (which I will link down below), so I thought I would call today’s card a “Touch of White” for the Art Impressions current blog “Highlights” Challenge. This challenges us to use a white gel pen or white paint to add highlights to your projects.

I thought I would take the white highlights theme to a new level by adding touches of white by not only using the gel pen but by adding white touches in several other ways. We will create a texture white brick background, add some white embossed tulips, add white speckles to the background, add some white ink around the edges of the card panel, and add some pretty white hearts! Lots of different ways to brighten up or highlight your cards!

Let’s start by stamping our images using the Ai Floral Long Stem Bouquet Set (5918) and the Ai Glass Containers Set (5921) and the Ai Easter Bunny Puppet Set (5869). Now we can color these using the Zig Clean Color Real Brush Pens in the following colors: Blender, Lt Pink, Peach Pink, Bright Yellow, Orange, Sea Green, Persian Green, May Green, Green, English Lavender, Purplish Gray, Lt Gray.

Once the coloring is done let’s add some highlights with our white gel pen to the flowers, container and bow.

Next, we can build the background for the flower arrangement by using a brickwork embossing folder and some white cardstock. We will ink the embossing folder in gray to give it a more realistic look. We will also use another embossing folder to create a little wood shelf for our arrangement to sit on. We can color this using some brown inks and then cut it down to size.

Let’s go ahead and assemble the arrangement onto some black cardstock, leaving a small border of black all the way around.

Now for the larger background, we will begin by stamping and embossing a pretty tulip border in white ink and white embossing powder, using the Ai My Trust Set (5937). Let’s use this same set to stamp the little speckled stamp (one of my new favorite go-to stamps) and stamp the kraft colored cardstock with all of the colors used in the flower arrangement and also a pop of white ink!

Let’s assemble onto a white card base and add a few pretty white hearts! I hope this card inspires you to add some white highlights onto your cards in a variety of fun ways!
