I am thrilled to announce my guest designer appearance at Scraps 'n' Pieces Emporium Challenge for August!
Here is my creation:
Their challenge this month is anything goes, so I hope you'll join in on fun and be inspired by wonderful creations their DT created!
I created a frame using some heavy cardstock, put it all together, covered it with scrunched up tissue paper, gesso and crackle paste. I added the inked and heat embossed butterfly cutout embellished with a fleur de lis resin embellishment.
I added a cluster of different embellishments to add some more interest to this piece. This is a greeting card but could surely be used as a home decor piece, I'd say...
I am going to enter this card into following challenges:
That Craft Place Mixed Media Anything Goes
We Love To Create Craft Challenge #16 Anything Mixed Media/creative/Inky Goes
Creative Craft Cottage Challenge #44 Anything Goes
I hope you enjoyed this post...
Have a wonderful day and thanks for stopping by..

ReplyDeleteMy goodness, Samra, it's absolutely stunning card! Another masterpiece from you, my friend! A genius idea to create a frame out of the cardstock, gesso, tissue paper and paste! The result is breathtaking! I adore your embossed butterfly with fleur de lis and your perfect embellishing! It's grunge but soft and elegant at the same time! Amazing card and my new favorite of yours!

Congratulations on your Guest Designer spot, Samra! They are truly blessed to have you! Your project is spectacular! The texture you achieved is amazing on the frame you made! Your design and embellishing are beautiful as ever. The fleur-de-lis centered butterfly is unique and gorgeous.
