Alright, fellow card crafters, get ready to dive into a world of shimmer and shine with this stunning handmade card featuring some of the newly released Ranger Ink and Simon Hurley create. products! I started with a bold black A2 cardstock panel, and let me tell you, that contrast is everything. Using the Whimsical Florals peel apart rubber background stamp, I embossed a delicate floral pattern with clear embossing ink and a bright white superfine embossing powder.
Then came the magic: Simon Hurley create.'s Crocodile Tears Solar Spray! I generously misted the entire panel, watching as the color danced and transformed before my eyes. For the focal point, I stamped two center flowers from the Whimsical Flowers set onto Stark White Cardstock with Crown Me ink. After fussy cutting them out, I added a touch of Royal Flush Solar Spray, giving them a vibrant, shimmery look. To finish it off, I stamped the "sending smiles" sentiment from the Heartfelt Blooms photopolymer stamps with a black ink suitable for embossing and then added a holographic embossing powder for that extra wow factor.

Once everything was dry, I trimmed the background panel to 4 x 5.25 inches and adhered it to an A2 white card base. The real fun began when I popped up the floral images with foam adhesive, creating depth and dimension. I then layered the "sending smiles" sentiment across the flowers and background, tying everything together. It's a simple design, but trust me, the shimmer from those Solar Sprays is absolutely mesmerizing! Catch all the sparkle and step-by-step action in my Instagram Reel, which I've embedded below. You'll see exactly how the light catches the shimmer and brings this card to life.
