Fancy Flowers Card

Hello everyone,

I would like to share with you my latest make:

I created the background from water color paper, acrylic paints and texture paste and splash-like stencil.

I used Cricut to cut out flowers, ink them with distress inks and add flower stamens. Crinkle seam binding bow was hand died.

The sentiment was computer generated and cut into strip. I added some gem embellishments and a couple of fleur cut outs to finish the card.

One more look at the finished card and the box that it comes with...

Guest Designer at The Funkie Junkie Boutique Blog

Hello everyone,

I am thrilled that I was given the opportunity to  guest design for Funkie Junkie Boutique!
My guest appearance is for their current challenge with the theme Positively Pensive!
Here is the description: 

The challenge is to thoughtfully use a ballpoint pen on your project.

You can doodle, journal, sketch or trace an outline using any color ballpoint pen on your art.

Create a Vintage or Shaby Chic project with ink from a ballpoint pen and if it isn't obvious how it was used, make sure to tell us in your post!

And here is my inspiration contribution:

The way I used a ballpoint pen is to outline parts of the diamond shapes that were created with Finnabair Harlequin stencil and texture paste, doodling around the embossed edge of oval that mannequin was placed on, and some more at the corners of the stenciled background.

I added some hand made flowers that I covered with Gesso to give them that rustic look and a seam binding ribbon for this crinkled shabby bow.

I added a little hand rolled rose to this Prima Shabby Chic Mannequin.

Here is a closeup of the ballpoint outlines and doodling. In the background you can see another layer diecut that I embellished with pink liquid pearls.

Another look at the finished card and the box that it comes with.

I hope you will join this fun challenge at The Funkie Junkie Boutique Blog.

Thanks for stopping by and stay safe...

Open Window and A Bicycle Card....

Hello everyone,
I hope this post finds you well and safe.
I would like to share with you my latest make:

I created the brick background using MFT brick stencil background, texture paste and crackle paint.

The bicycle was made using paper clay and silicone mould, then I inked it to add some color to it. The open window is a Spellbinders die and I added some lace ribbon to make those fancy curtains.

I made flowers using two sizes of flower punch and large pearl flower stamens. The leaves are Magnolia leaf die cuts.

Here is one more look at the finished card.
