Morning everyone, i hope you are having a good week.
Today im sharing a stamped card, where ive used lots of different stamps to build up my garden scene.
7x7" scalloped cardbase. I took a square of white card and stamped my flowers in black and then masked them with pebeo drawing gum. I doodled in some ground with a black fine liner pen. I then inked up the background with distress inks. I added in some detail with oxide inks and stencils. I added some stamping in grey with a dictionary stamp and stamped in some water drops. I removed excess ink from the water drops with a damp brush and dabbed with tissue & then added some glossy accents.
I then removed the masking fluid and coloured the flowers with wink of stella pens. I die cut lots of little butterfly from purple inked card. I stamped my little lady onto white card and cut her out. I stamped the sentiment and cut out. I added my little lady with dimension. Doodled in white gel pen dots for butterfly trails.
I then mounted the panel onto silver glitter card and then navy cardstock and then the cardfront.
A close up, you can just make out the sparkle but in real life the wink of stella pens really shimmer and sparkle.
Items Used:
Carabelle stamps - 'zinouk du jardin'
Water drop stamps
Stampin Up dictionary stamp
Bee crafty sentiment stamp
Various stencils
Memory box mini butterfly die
Wink of Stella pens
Distress oxide & original inks
In answer to a question last week Kirsty i always use a normal paintbrush over a waterbrush when colouring in images, just personal choice as i find have more control over the amount of water im using.
Im off to meet my new baby niece today so looking forward to that. I hope you all have a good day whatever your plans. Hugs Emma
