CAS butterfly on card and envelope by Ellie Knol


Ellie here today with a little inspiration, I hope you are doing fine!!

 

For today's card (and envelope)  I chose for a clean-and-simple composition, 
which is a style I don't use too often.



I masked the butterfly (or moth actually) to be able to stamp the script (Art Defined) 'behind' it. 


The images have been colored with watercolor pencils, the blue background with PanPastel. 



I splattered white ink to finish it off...

Art Journal Page with Distress Ink Background and Crazy Flowers

Image
Hi everyone! It's Susanne writing today. I used Distress Inks together with some of our Crazy Flowers to create the page in this art journal. It's a watercolor journal from Kunst & Papier, it's one of my favourites to use with Ink and watercolors. I didn't use any gesso to prime my page. The flowers are embossed with white powder on watercolor paper. I coloured them in in complementary colours, by dipping them into the Distress Inks, to let them pop from the background. Scroll down for the video tutorial. Enjoy watching the video: Thanks for stopping by today! xx Susanne Rubber Dance Stamps:

Altered Chipboard Butterfly + Giveaway

Image
Message in Norwegian : Hvis du foretrekker å lese dette innlegget på norsk, kan du gjøre det og samtidig bli med på giveawayen på den andre bloggen vår ved å klikke her. Hello everyone! Bibi here today with a fun project, using the Totem Monarch Poppet chipboard from EyeConnect Crafts . I had such a blast with this and I hope what I've made will inspire you to make something similar. The difference between the chipboards from EyeConnect Crafts and others ones I've seen out there, is that they are made to connect (hence the name). There are two categories, one called Lace-Ups which you bind together using ribbons, string, lace, etcetera and another category of chipboards with smaller holes so you can connect the pieces using tiny eyelets or brads. This is what it looks like. The pieces are laser cut, and you easily remove them from the base - save that part and use it as a stencil for another project. Notice there is also a chipboard of the butterfly's...

A Day to Celebrate + GIVEAWAY!

Image
Hello, dear stamping friends all over the world!  Bibi here today with  THREE things to celebrate! Today is the Norwegian National Day , which is celebrated with childrens' parades and marching bands all over  the country. The proper way to greet a Norwegian on May 17th is to say, "Gratulerer med dagen!" (Literally:  Congratulations with the day ). This photo is from a parade in Oslo: May 17th is also my mum's birthday and today she's turning 75! After watching the parades, we're celebrating mum's big day with family and friends at her place. I have always made birthday cards for mum using the colours of our flag (red, white and blue), but this year I did something different and I know she likes these colours, too. Background paper made with spray inks. The flower stamps are from  Antique Botanicals .  The Happy Birthday is a die from Quietfire Design , and I put two die cuts on top of one another - white under blue for contrast ag...
