Happy Birthday: Floral card

Hi Friends,

Made a quick floral card. Pencil colored these peonies from Power poppy: Dynamic duos clear stamp set several months ago, during Kathyrac's dailymarker coloring contest. Recolored a bit now to give a fresh look to the peonies.

• Stamped the peonies onto white cardstock.
• Colored using Prisma colored pencils.
• Trimmed and Die-cut using MFT Bracket die.
• Stamped the sentiment using Memento Black ink on to the kraft colored Top fold A2 sized card base.
• Mounted the panels on to the kraft to reveal the base sentiment part using Foam adhesives, to raise the panels above the card base.
• A mini butterfly Mudra Chipzeb is added to the die cut part of panel.
• Few enamel dots to finish off the card.

Hope you like it!

Happy Crafting!!

Guest Designing at IBS

Hi friends,

This is Sathya from Paperie Expressions. Am excited to share my Guest Design project for the month of June at IBS. If you have missed my earlier post using two Fabulous floral stamps, you can check here . 

For today, i have come up with a mixed media project, using Gorgeous Butterflies Stampset.

Let's get started!

• Took 5"x7" canvas and gessoed it with Clear Gesso.
• Added Wendy Veichchi Embossing paste (Translucent) on the diagonal corners of the canvas and with that added cheesecloth.
• Few strings are randomly to create further textures.
• The canvas is misted with Lindy's gang sprays.
• The butterflies are stamped using Black Archival ink and colored using Gelatos. Highlights are added using Fabercastell Polychromos pencils.

                 

• Then colored butterflies are fussy cut, Ranger's UTEE clear Heat embossed.
• The canvas is randomly stamped using script stamp from Forever friends stampset and black archival ink.
• Same stamp is stamped onto a chipboard and added as a focal interest.
• To that added a vellum strip of sentiment from the Butterflies stampset.
• Few Prima mini art stones and some gold glitter dots are added randomly for interest.
• Finally butterflies are added using Hot glue gun.

Hope you liked today's project.

All Chalked up!!

Hi Friends,

Made few chalkboard projects for Mudra few weeks before, thought to share here.


Chalked Bookmarks , Chalked Notecards, Chalked Gift Tags :

Chalked Bookmarks:

• Took black cs in 2.25"x6" and white heat embossed sentiments from Bookmarks stampset and Hot air ballon from Beachfun Stampset.
• Then using tissue, buffed white pigment ink over the embossed and surrounding areas to give a chalkboard effect.
• Bordered the panel with white colored pencil.
• Went ahead and matted this over a white cs.
• Then laminated this bookmark and added a black satin ribbon as final touch.

Chalked Notecards:

• These are 3.5x3.75" notecards which i attempted to do Table art, by showcasing these on mini easels for a daily Inspirational kick at workspace :)
• I took sentiments from Farewell, Dare to fly stampsets and white heat embossed it along with feathers from Dreamcatcher and chevron washi from Washis stampset.
• Buffed white pigment ink over the embossed areas.
• Highlighted panel by white colored pencil scorings.
• Matted with White cardstock.
• Laminated the panels to make sturdy.

Chalked Gift Tags:

• Was hoarding these thick colored cardboard hearts for a long time now.
• Went ahead and black gessoed it heavily.
• White heat embossed the sentiments from Mixed Greetings stampset.
• To add little extra detailing, stamped flourishes from Vintagey Florishes stampset around the sentiments.
• Added natural linen ribbon and a teeny tiny ivory Raffia bow as final touch.

Hope you like these inspirations using Chalkboard technique.
