Stampin'up Wetlands Cards

Hello

A couple more Stampin'up cards for you today featuring Wetlands stamp set.

 



I have made a similar card to this one previously, but in different colours and using other sentiments. This one is a navy base. The paper layer has been stamped repeatedly with the wading birds and an oval die cut to the left of the paper. The goose was stamped on natural ivory card, shaded with ink and placed behind a piece of acetate. This was then placed behind the aperture and the whole panel taped to the card front. A strip of paper cut to a banner was taped below the oval and the Birthday sentiment stamped, cut to a banner and mounted to the top right. A piece of sky card was stamped with the reeds and die cut into a frame. This was then positioned above the aperture and coated with crystal effects. An insert was stamped and taped inside and candy dots added to the front to finish.

This card is made using the negative stamped paper oval and the negative frame piece from the above card. The card base is island indigo and matted with paper from Adventure bound pad. Chevron natural ribbon is added across the bottom with two pleats and a antique brad. Candy dots are added to the frame section and this is then coated with crystal effects. An insert was added.
I have resolved to try my best to create something with negative pieces at the same time as the original creation. This hopefully will prevent those trays of bits and pieces that seem to gather.
See you again soon - till then keep happy crafting
