Yes you did read right next week, well weds this week we (myself and
hubster) are flying off to sunny Spain for a week he is taking me away
for my birthday how cool is that first he buys me my pencils then he whisks me
off to the sun yayyyyyy(happy spoiled bunny (0: )
So as you have probably guessed I do have a card to show you
but it’s not any of the above mentioned. My Mom( in law) asked me if I would make a 21st
birthday card for a friends Granddaughter who’s birthday is on the same day as
my Dad (in
law) so I had printed the image off a few days ago and have been doing a
bit of colouring when I have been able (things have
been a little busy here as well as the lack of creativity) and I made
the flowers yesterday then today I finally got to put it together.
It’s another 8x8” card
now the papers were a freebie from someone on FB but on saving it just saved the
images and not said who they were from and it was few days later I got them
from my download file and I couldn’t remember for the life of me who made them
so hand on heart thank you and sorry I couldn’t shout you out. I have
distressed the edges and inked with picked raspberry and hickory smoke DI then splattered with watered down paint and
frantaged.
The image is from Mo Manning called teen fairy Pia and I have coloured her with my polychrome
and Pablo pencils , then glitter added to the wings. I then did the background
in my usual way using a mask of the image and inking with blues and brown DI’s.
I then frantaged the
edges of the image and added cheese cloth to the back I did the same with the
sentiment.
The flowers were made with watercolour paper coloured with
picked raspberry and hickory smoke DI then I used some really chunky glitter to
add a dewy look then once dried added some splats of paint to tie it all together.
I added coloured berries and stamens then finished the card front with a pretty
handmade bow again flicked with wet paint (yayyyy I got messy hahaha a bugger to clear up though! )0:)
To finish the card I made the insert using the same papers
and bringing the image through then adding a verse and again just because I
have missed getting messy I splattered paint over the insert (very lightly
though) just to tie it all together.
So there you have it I hope you like and it was worth the
wait I promise once I get back form sunny Spain it will business as usual so I
will see you when I get back
Happy Crafting
