Seaside Girl Shell in Your Pocket Card

 Seaside Girl

Shell in Your Pocket Card

Welcome to my next project for Couture Creations using the

'Seaside Girl' Collection.

This time I thought I would make a card using only the one stamp set.  So here goes....

I started by laying out the stamps in an arrangement along the front edge.  I needed to see the order I had to stamp and mask. The stamps that are on the top had to be stamped first then masked so that the next images could be stamped.

The masking process.  Because I wanted to colour the images with water based dye inks, I used the Stayz alcohol ink to stamp the images so the inks wouldn't run past the outline of the image.

Once the stamping was done, the colouring started.   I stamped a small area of each colour on a glass plate.  I used a water pen and dye inks for this.

All done, just fussy cut around the outline edge so the inside panel can be seen.  

I added a touch of glitter on parts of the shells using a glitter pen.

 On the inside, I placed a strip of washy tape just a bit wider than the front cut edge then heat embossed the 'Net' stamp using white embossing powder.

Once the embossing was set, I randomly added blue ink over the area using the blending brush. 

I cut out a sentiment panel, distressed the edges, backed with cardboard, added a string tie and glued it to the front.

The finished project.

Friends Card with Kaylee

Hello everyone,  just love playing with the Blooming Friendship collection.  With this card I wanted to try painting the flower with alcohol inks on watercolour paper - I loved how smooth the ink went on. 

I started by stamping the flower with the burgundy re-inker, die-cut it out and painted it.  With the lighter ink I coloured the outside edge of the petals first, then the middle of the petal with the medium colour, finishing up with the darker colour in the centre.

Next up I laid/taped a mask made from ripping copy paper over the card front for the border edge and blended these 2 colours in this area.

.

Next, embossed the brick stamp to the card front and the sentiment onto acetate.

I mounted the flower onto cardboard the glued to cardfront. I used the clear quick dry glue to adhere the acetate strip. 

Finished.  If I could only capture the glitter/shine of the flower - it looked very pretty.
