#beecraftydeck2024 week 38 diamonds

Hi everyone,  I'm running a little behind on the Bee Crafty Deck challenge so for today's blog post I'm sharing my week 38 make.
Because my cards are shiny, they need to be primed with some sort of paper. I decided to use catalyst papers for this one, and as there are no diamonds on any of the papers, I went for the plain one from pack 2. I made the paper wet before adding the collage medium, as this makes it more transparent than just with medium, then covered my card. I used an emeryboard to remove the excess paper from around the edges.
Next I used the diamond plate six inch inkable with candied apple distress oxide to start the background. 
Then I added texture paste through the distressed diamond dinkable from set 2.
Next I used versafine clair nocturne to stamp the small diamond/square stamp from the journaling essentials 4 stamp set.
On seperate card, I stamped two of the leaves, from Journaling Essentials 2, using versafine clair verdant ink and one of the flowers, from Journaling Essentials 4, with versafine clair strawberry. I coloured the flowers using the remaining ink on my blending brush from using the stencil before. I then cut them out.

I then glued them to the card using collage medium. 
Finally I added a sentiment from the Small Words stamp set, which I stamped with the strawberry inkthen cut out and edged with a black pen.

Distress Oxide - Candied Apple
