Where Creativity Meets C9:: Challenge 9:: Florals


There's a new Where Creativity Meets C9 Challenge and it's all about creating a floral project showcasing the amazing products available at Concord & 9th as this challenge is dedicated to the innovative stamp company and their products!


There are so many beautiful floral stamps available at Concord & 9th, so it was difficult for me to narrow down which set to use. I decided upon Wildflower. I stamped and heat embossed a floral scene onto watercolor paper, (with only a bit of masking) and then loosely colored the petals with Zigs. After everything dried, I stamped and heat embossed a sentiment from Brushed Blossoms. The final touch to my card was to add a series of black Nuvo Drops to the flowers and empty areas.

The challenge is sponsored by the fabulous Concord & 9th and one luck random entry will receive a $25 gift certificate for a Concord & 9th shopping spree. The favorite entry will be asked to guest design for a future challenge! The challenge runs until May 29th, so there is plenty of time to pull out your favorite Concord & 9th stamps and die and create an one layer project. Plus, new Concord & 9th products were released TODAY and they are fantastic!

You can find Where Creativity Meets C9 Challenge on Facebook here, and their Instragram here!

  6. This is gorgeous, Karen! Love the warm colours and the scattered Nuvo dots. How do you get that watercolor effect? Do you colour with the Zigs and then go over it with a brush?
