Doodle Flower – Rachel Vass Designs

April 18, 2020

Happy Release day – Rachel Vass Designs. Today I am sharing the new release April Doodle Flower from Rachel Vass designs. You can find this new stamp and all of Rachel’s designs at her etsy shop here.

I started by working with the doodle flower in Microsoft Word. I layered 2 of the flower images together to create the slim line card. I printed my images on Canson Mixed Media paper. I colored in my flowers using my Arteza real brush pens. I used a combination of yellow, orange, and red. I completed several layers of color on the paper. I have found with this paper I start with the ink on my paper and then after a couple layers I add the ink to my glass mat, then bring it to the paper. I have found this method to work well, as this paper is thinner. Once my flowers were complete I added white dots to the stamens of the flowers with my gel pen. I added splatters across the panel and set it aside to dry.

Once my panel was dry I adhered my panel to a black card case. I added stickles to the center of each flower for added shine. I hope you enjoyed this card and I encourage you to visit Rachel’s shop for this new release, plus many other beautiful designs.

Have a great day! Crafty hugs,

Natasha

    Gorgeous card, I love the slim line cards.
    Can you tell me what the measurements of such cards are.
    I think that the cards are bigger than the ones who fittet the regular envelops I have, we (here in the Netherlands) have different card sizes than you.
    Thank you so much for sharing, stay safe and have a great day.

      Hi! Thank you so much!!!! I typically make my slim lines 8.5 by 3.5
      This one was smaller though, it was about 7 x 3.5
      These fit our business sized envelopes 💛

Hi crafty friends! Thank you for joining me on my creative, colorful, card making journey! I am so excited that you are here! I am a mom of 2 amazing kids and married to my high school sweetheart! I am a teacher and a card maker! I love to create bright and colorful cards! Thank you for joining my crafty journey!
