Tiger Cards - Kaszazz

Hello

These cards have been created with Kaszazz Tiger stamp.
All card bases are black, with the stamping and matting in ivory.

Brick wall was stencilled in Pumice stone distress ink down the left and accross the bottom. The edges were sponged in Forest moss leaving the area for the tiger clear.
The tiger is stamped in black archival, masked, and the leaves stamped in olive. Fern leaf was stamped in fern archival and tea dye distress.
The tiger is coloured with watercolour pencils and waterbrush. The eyes are highlighted with gel pen. Twine was knotted round the bottom and the panel matted and fixed to the card base.

Leaf paper from Earth Elements has a circle die cut from it and forms the card front. The tiger is stamped in archival ink on to ivory card to correspond with the circle aperture. Fern leaves are stamped round the tiger. Tiger is coloured with pencils, the paper taped to the stamped panel and fern leaves stamped to the paper. Twine is wrapped twice round the panel, knotted through a button, and the panel fixed to the card base.

On this card the ivory panel is sponged all over with antique linen distress and then with stormy sky leaving the centre clear. The tiger is stamped with archival and is coloured with inks and a waterbrush. Ink streaks  were added round the edges and fern leaf stamped. This was then matted to ivory card and fixed to the card base. Eyes again highlighted with white gel pen.

All inserts are stamped with Fern leaf.

Striking aren't they?

Dragonfly Cards... Judikins Dragonfly...

Hi,

We have a couple of dragonfly cards to show you today.  I have used the Judikins Dragonfly stamp which I have coloured with a selection of colours and added glitter and rhinestones to.

The first card has a green card base with a couple of coloured card layers as well as a layer of music patterned paper.  I have also used a honeycomb die threaded with a green ribbon (as a vine growing on a fence).

The second card featuring two dragonflies has a very similar layout to the first card.

I was searching for a dragonfly quote to add to the bottom of my post... I actually found many but have decided to share with you parts of a couple of different ones...

Live like a dragonfly,

Be colourful and just wing it!

Corset Cards... Prima #580070

Hello,

Today's cards feature a beautiful stamp from Prima Marketing #580070.  I have created the same card using three different colour schemes...

First black, 

                            

followed by red,

and lastly, purple.

Coloured card bases, followed by a patterned layer, then a matching cardstock layer, finished off with the stamped image on white card.  Rhinestones, ribbon flowers and bows and a brad complete the three cards.

Hope you are having a lovely day!

Pop Pop Poppy Cards

Hi

These cards have been created using the beautiful Pop Pop Poppy stamp from Penny Black.

The stamp was inked with Marvy brush markers and stamped on to white card. The edges were distressed, and the marker run round them. Ribbon was threaded through a rhinestone slide, tied into a bow and wrapped across the panel. This was then added to a white card base and rhinestones added to the corners.

Victorian Rose and olive markers were used for this card.

This card is made in the same way.
Colours used here are Wine and Olive.
A pearl slide was threaded with braid and pearls were used to finish the design.





These cards were so quick and easy to make for a very beautiful and effective card, and can be used for any occasion..

See you again soon
Till next time
Be Happy
