Good Morning everyone
In my stash busting this year i decided to use some double sided adhesive sheets ive had for eons. I used them with sizzix biodegradable glitter - which im very impressed with. I don't 'do' glitter normally but this doesn't seem to go everywhere like synthetic and unlike other biodegradable ones ive tried it is really shimmery which sadly the photos don't pick up.
I first attached one side of the sticky sheet to cardstock, then die cut the floral panel from white card and attached to the other side of the double sided sticky sheet. I then paper pieced back in the white background pieces and coloured the leaves with oxide inks before also piecing back into place. I then added the black glitter to the flowers, burnishing it well. I then mounted onto card inked with the oxide inks i used for the leaves, black card and then the white base card.
I stamped the sentiment and die cut into a fishtail banner, 2 vellum die cut circles, i inked the smaller one with the green oxide inks. Die cut butterfly to finish. Lilac gems used to the flower centres to finish.
I made a portrait and landscape version.
and a portrait version
Whats more summery than flowers and butterflies - the butterflies have certainly been enjoying all this sunshine this week
