A card with Grungy Butterflies by Evelyn

Hello lovely visitor, it´s Evelyn today with a colorful card for your inspiration today!


This is what I did:

I took a piece of watercolor paper and glued some thin scrapbook paper and glued pieces on top. Then I added crackle paste through a stencil.

When dry, I sprayed Starburst Mists in orange and pink to the surface.
I repeated the process until I was happy with the result and when dry, I emphasized the cracks with black liquid watercolor. Then I added even more color with my Gelatos.
Now it was time for some stamping! I used  the stamp set weed love and the words from the Grungy Butterflies set for the background.
Lastly I colored another page of watercolor paper with Glimmer Mists, stamped some of the beautiful Grungy Butterflies here and there, accentuated with a white posca pen and fuzzy cut the butterflies.
Now I only had to glue down the butterflies and the stamped words.

I hope you feel inspired!
Thank you for your visit today!

Always Sparkle - Envelope Book Tutorial by Sue

Image
Good afternoon and happy Saturday, welcome to the weekend! It's Sue here with my envelope book. Making your own books and journals is very popular at the moment, and I wanted to have a go. I also wanted to use supplies that I had already as it's just after Christmas and I'm already in 2022's craft budget. So I have quite a few of these -  Colour Craft lustre paints. Loads of these - rather posh DL pearlised envelopes. I bought a box full in a closing down sale, so have a box full less 3! And these, my favourite bright StazOn inks. So to work (well play really, I'm making it all up as I go along) I started by painting my envelopes with the paints, then added some stencilling in a contrasting colour. I've used totally different colours so that I've got a choice of colours for my toppers. I've used metallics on this one and they are really nice! For the 'in between
