I'd picked out a beautiful YSL scarf to base my card on, but we have, unexpectedly, to go out this afternoon, so for starters I've made a quick card based on Stef's first thumb. For obvious reasons it sent me to the Faux Cloisonne technique, and I added some Black Magic in for the soft blue flowers in the background.
5 1/4" base, black card with the edges wiped with gold ink and embossed with gold EP, plus a little Woodware sentiment.
Main panel cut with Lacy Squares from black card, edges wiped and embossed with gold. I stamped a flower and leaf from Botanical Blooms with StazOn white and coloured with watercolour pencils.
Embrace Life and a Penny Black butterfly stamped and embossed with gold on old magazine pages and cut out. I used a Sakura Glaze pen to add colour to the hearts on the butterfly.
Be back later to comment.
