BUTTERFLY DIE CARD

Hello folks,
I was so impressed Laura Sterckx’s watercolour card at Bonus Day of Watercolor Card Makers! It is stunning!!! So, I chose ‘Simon Says Stamp LEANNA BUTTERFLY Die’ as a focal point of my friend’s birthday card.

Personally, I love butterfly embellishment. The Butterfly symbolises the Covenant in Christianity.

Here it is:

I blended several Distress inks using distress tool and added Shimmer Spritz Sparkle. Making my own embossing pattern with scoring board is so clever!! Isn’t it wonderful technique? LOL!!

20140523-02Could you see the sparkly surface? It is really beautiful. I love it :D.

She loves flower and pinkish colour. So, I chose gorgeous Bigger Blooms Stamp by Papertrey ink for her. Several flower stamps were stamped in Distress inks (Festive Berries, Dried Marigold, Mustard Seed, and Seedless Preserves). I added some water and Shimmer Spritz Frost to flower petals and leaves and touches of glossy accents to fresh water drops :D

I send this card to England tomorrow morning LOL!!

Watercoloring an Embossed Image

Hello folks,
yesterday, I made another watercolour card. I tried to emulate the Jennifer McGuire’s tutorial – Shimmer Watercolouring! LOL!!

Here it is:
20140515-01
for this card, I chose ‘Roses are Red stamp by Flourishes’ however, hmm.. it wasn’t perfectly fit to shimmer watercolouring… it is a bit intricate (just in my opinion) I need to have more flower stamps :D
Anyway, I chose it and love it!!

Here is a detailed view:
