Silk Flowers

These Silk Flowers by The Paper Studio were gifted to me back in 2008. I decided to adorn this card front with them. Thoughts? 


Silk Flowers


Stamps:
   Simply Said (2024)

Paper:
   Tahitian Tide A-2
   Basic Black 4-1/8 x 5-3/8
   2022-2024 In Color 6x6 DSP 4 x 5-1/4, 3-1/2 x 4-3/4 (cut on Diagonal - makes 2 cards)
   Blushing Bride 2-1/4 x 1/2 
   Basic White 4 x 5-1/4 (Inside)

Ink:
   Tuxedo Black Memento

Technique:
   CAS
   Punching

Accessories:
   Silk Flower Brads (The Paper Studio)
   2022-2024 In Color Decorative Dots
   Banners Pick a Punch
   Tear & Tape
   Adhesive

First, I cut the 3-1/2 x 4-3/4" DSP panel on the diagonal. I then adhered it onto the top-right corner of the 4 x 5-1/4" panel of DSP. (2 triangles = 2 cards)

I then laid out 4 of the Silk Flower Brads on the seam of the card from the smallest to the largest. Since, they fit fine, I attached the four flower brads on the seam of the card as shown above.

Next, I adhered the panel onto a Basic Black matte, and then adhered it on to the Tahitian Tide card front.

I then stamped and punched the sentiment on a strip of Blushing Bride card stock, using Tuxedo Black Memento ink, and the Banners Pick a Punch.

Next, I adhered the sentiment to the lower-left side of the card.

Lastly, I added a couple of 2022-2024 In Color Decorative Dots to the card front and adhered a Basic White panel to the inside of the card. 

Here is another card, using other Silk Flowers from the package and changing the sentiment to Happy Birthday. Blushing Bride 3-1/4 x 1/2:

Cloudy Flowers

Blur your lines by stamping on watercolor paper and quickly misting the image with water. Let the colors run and blend into each other. Thoughts? 




Stamps:
   Flower Shop
   Apple Blossoms

Paper:
   Peekaboo Peach A-2
   Watercolor 5-1/4 x 4
   Basic White 5-1/4 x 4 (Inside)

Ink:
   Tuxedo Black Memento
   Berry Burst
   Lemon Lime Twist
   Peekaboo Peach

Technique:
   Watercolor

Accessories:
   Flower Brads
   Water Mister
   Adhesive

First, I stamped the flowers, using Berry Burst, Peekaboo Peach, and Lemon Lime Twist.

I quickly misted them with water and allowed the ink to spread and blur the lines.

I let the panel dry completely.

Next, I stamped the sentiment at the top of the panel, using Tuxedo Black Memento ink.

I then added some flower brads to the center of each of the flowers.

Next, I adhered the panel onto a Peekaboo Peach card front.

Lastly, I added a Basic White panel to the inside of the card.

Who knew I could be successful at creating a mixed media card? Thoughts? 




Stamps:
   Postage Collection
   Postage Due

Paper:
   Wild Wheat A-2
   Basic Black 5-3/8 x 4-1/8
   2019-2021 In-Color DSP 5-1/4 x 4
   Stamped Bubble Wrap Scrap 2 x 5-1/4
   Hand-Stamped Washi Tape Scrap 3-1/2 x 3/4
   Basic White 5-1/4 x 4 (Inside)

Ink:
   Wild Wheat

   Various Colors on Washi Tape

Technique:
   Mixed Media Collage

Accessories:
   Basic Rhinestone Jewels
   Bird Sticker
   Corduroy Button Brad
   Flower Brads
   Adhesive

First, I searched my scrap pile for leftover useable bits. I found a bit of my hand-stamped washi tape and a piece of bubble wrap stamping.

I then checked out my stash of stickers. I found a beautiful one that was gifted to me by my daughter-in-law. Yeah!

Next, I played with the pieces on the DSP and adhered the Bubble Wrap scrap on the left edge. 

I then adhered the bit of Washi Tape at an angle on the bottom of the DSP.

Next, I attached the sticker to the top right corner of the panel.

I then adhered the DSP panel onto a Basic Black matte to make it a bit sturdier. 

Next, I added the Corduroy Button Brad and the two small flower brads.

I then adhered the panel to the Wild Wheat card front.

Lastly, I added a few rhinestones and adhered a Basic White panel to the inside of the card.

I am so excited that you decided to pay me a visit. Please Contact Me if I can be of service.
