Quick and Easy Cards - Kaszazz

 Hello

A couple of really quick and easy cards for today.


White card base, coloured card layer, then a layer of paper from Papillon collection papers by Kaszazz. A pocket from Pocket Pals set was stamped on to paper and fussy cut. Lace was fixed across the top and brads added, and it was then taped to the card front along the two outside and the bottom edges.  A flower Cut out from the same collection was tucked into the pocket and a butterfly cut out added. A die cut sentiment and pearls were attached and glossy accents and glitter glue applied.


The navy card base was layered with light blue card, then pattern paper from Home Sweet Home collage paper pad by Kaszazz. Metallic tape was added to the paper. 
An image panel from the paper pad was trimmed, layered on to pink then blue card, and mounted on to the card front. A fussy cut butterfly was added with a pearl shell button with a gold thread knot fixed to the body.
Gems and glossy accents were applied

Have a great day..

Till next time

Wild and Free #2

 Hello

Hope you are all having a pleasant day.

I had so much fun creating the previous set of cards using this stamp set, that I had, of course, to then go on to create cards using all the animals in the set.






They were all created in the same way as previously.
I simply used different configurations of card and paper layers on the card bases.

Enjoy

Till next time

Wild and Free cards

 Hello

To make these cards, I first created the backgrounds. Using watercolour card and a fairly dry brush and thick watercolour paint, the foreground and sky areas were painted first. A darker blue was used over the top to shape the mountains, then green was dabbed across the middle area for a tree line. Darker brown strips were brushed on to the ground area.


Once the paint was dry, the small animals, birds and trees from Wild and Free stamp set were stamped in place.


The larger animal images were stamped on to white card, coloured with pencils and fussy cut.


For cards 1 and 3, strips of pattern paper were added to the coloured base card.
For card 2, the base was layered with coloured card, then the strip of paper. The painted and stamped panel was then mounted centrally on the card.
The panels for cards 1 and 2 were layered on to coloured card, then mounted on to the card fronts.

The focal images of the animals were then mounted on to the cards.
Pearls and glossy accents were applied.

Thanks for visiting.
