Hi there friends, I've managed to make a few cards today and for
I started out by smooshing some distress inks in Mustard Seed, Carved Pumpkin
and Picked Raspberry onto some acetate before transferring to watercolour card.
I die-cut the watercolour card panel using Simon Says Stamp Stitched Circle Dies
then mounted on 3d foam. Next up I've heat embossed and fussy cut the butterfly
from Happy Little Stampers Birthday Butterfly set and smooshed with Picked Raspberry.
The sentiment is from the same set and embossed with Hero Arts White EP.
To finish some coordinating enamel sprinkles from Doodlebug.
Here's Kylie's card which I've cased using similar colours, smooshing
and a butterfly theme as my inspiration.
Next up is for the current challenge at CASology where the theme is 'Open'
I've used the new Window die from Clearly Besotted and die-cut several times
to layer them up and hopefully give the impression of 'open'. The owl is from
Clearly Besotted Woodland Pals and I've even used the 'kissing' technique
we are featuring at Less is More this week ... even though I wasn't keen!!!!
I thought it added a little interest to the owl along with his googlie eyes.
The sentiment is also Clearly Besotted: Sweet Little Sentiments and I've added
some foliage using the Natures Treasures II set from Uniko.
Ok that's all for now - I'm off to watch War and Peace on Catch up!
Thanks for calling by and I'll be back later in the week.
Both cards are gorgeous and such fun. The first one is particular gorgeous with those colours and all that smooshing x
