Be Brave!

Hey Hi All,

Am still sticking and challenging myself onto making of some non-floral cards…Yay bit away from my pencil coloring, watercoloring of florals.

And for today, it’s a Butterfly card.

To me, Butterfly symbolises a “Free spirit”. And it goes wherever it pleases and pleases wherever it goes.

  • Took a watercolor paper and trimmed a bit to fit a 4×6″ Top fold cardbase.
  • Mixed HNDMD paper texture paste and Brusho -Limegreen to get a beautiful shade of green.
  • Applied this prepared paste over the panel using TCW ‘Art is’ stencil diagonally and applied plain paper paste to rest of the areas.
  • Love this texture paste as it just mimics a handmade paper texture.
  • Centrally splashed Smooch-Spritz golden yellow for a warm glow.
  • Stamplorations -Trendy butterflies2 large butterfly is gold heat embossed, fussy-cut and topped over die-cut leaves to create a focal element.
  • Sentiment from same stamp set is stamped using Memento black ink on to a strip of paper and added to the focal panel.
  • Matted this over cardbase and added few green enamel dots to finish off the card.
Hope you like it!

Hi Crafty peeps,

Am here today with a CAS styled mixed media card using Desert Rose from Graciellie Designs.

  • Took print out in watercolor paper and colored using Watercolor pencils.
  • Fussy cut the florals and heat embossed using UTEE clear Embossing powder.
  • Took a dark colored car base to match the florals, and applied Prima white crackle paste diagonally through Stamplorations Criss cross stencil.
  • After air drying it, added tinted gauze bits, beige lace bits in the floral spray and made it look dimensional.
  • Added dark pink micro balls on the laces, and few moss added randomly in bits.
  • Sentiment banner is distressed with pink pigment ink and added.
  • Few butterflies are fussy cut from Designer papers. These added along with few enamel dots to finish off the card.
