Cleo Floral Butterfly Card for Paper Rose Studio

 


Hello 2022!


Happy New Year to you creative friends.

Today I am sharing my first card for the year 

for Paper Rose Studio. 


 



I love simple clean cards with detailed colouring 
and to create the card using the Cleo Floral Butterfly stamp 
from Paper Rose Studio was great fun to make.

I have stamped out the image onto Paster Paper
 and used Prismacolor Pencils to colour in the
 butterfly wing and Flowers.



I have taken a plain card base, 
cut a window into it, 
and recessed the coloured butterfly behind the window 
with foam tape to give some dimension to the card.

I have added a sentiment and die cut word to complete the card.

Merry Christmas From Down Under

 


Hello Crafty Friends

Happy Christmas to you all, and thanks for stopping by.

It's my day to share a project and as it's Christmas Day and super hot here,

 I thought I would share a card that says all that!




I have coloured the background panel with Copic markers
 leaving white space at the top of the card to stencil in my clouds. 
I have used Distress oxide ink and a blending brush for the clouds 




after colouring the water and sand I have used a white posca paint pen, dotting in the space where 
the sea and sand meet to look like waves, this helps to "join" the area where these two colours meet.



I have coloured Santa in with Prismacolor Pencils and used the matching die to cut him out.


Supplies Used:

20715 Summer Santa Stamp Set

20716 Summer Santa Die Set


Copic Markers:

Little Bunny Girl Christmas Card

 

Hello

I am back with my second project for December for 

Paper Rose Studio.

The card that I am sharing is not your traditional Christmas card but with the right

sentiment almost any stamp can 

make a great alternative Christmas Card.




My Image has been stamped onto pastel paper and coloured with Prismacolor Pencils.
I have then fussy cut out the image.
The background Die has beed raised up by attaching it to the stitched frame die cut 
and using foam tape to set both in place.
This gives some depth to the card base and pops the stamped image.





I have cut out the Merry Christmas in black card and added liquid sparkle
for some interest on the bolder block letters.




Supplies Used:

23365 Little Bunny Girl stamp

16679 Stitched Rectangle Frames Die

21063 Chloe's Coverplate layer  2 Die

Hi there 

I am back with my third project for November

and Paper Rose Studio.

 As we are heading towards Christmas at great speed I thought i would share  another 

Christmas card, 

this one has ended up  bright and colourful.





To create the card base I have blended Distress Oxide Ink in Spun Sugar masking off 
the background with a stencil to create an irregular shaped colour block as my base.




The background has also been distressed with water and splatters of gold paint.




The three wise men are coloured with Prismacolor pencils.
 I have fussy cut them and arranged them 
on the card base.





I kept the card really simple and clean as the colours looked so cheerful and

bright together.


Supplies used:

23818 Three Wise Men Stamp Set

18225 Christmas Sentiments 4 x 6 Stamp set


Prismacolor Pencils

Distress Oxide Spun Sugar

I am loving the new stamps and dies that have been released lately,

Until next Time

Holy Family Christmas Card

I have another card to share with you.

I have used Prismacolor pencils to colour my stamped images.


These beautiful Christmas stamps are from Paper Rose Studio.






For my background I have used my scan n cut to cut out a mask for

 my background.

I have used distress oxide ink in Speckled egg to fill in colour. I have also splattered the background with gold paint whilst the mask is still in place.


After colouring in my stamped images I have fussy cut them out 

and layered them up to create my nativity scene. 

My stamped out sentiment has been cut out with the Scan n Cut 

and I have added some tiny gold stars to finish,



supplies used:

23815 Holy Family Clear stamp

23812 Stable Clear Stamp

18335 Christmas Sentiments Stamp

Flowering Gum Christmas Card

 


Hi There 

I am so shocked that it's November already! 

 For today's project I have made a very Australian

Christmas card using the Paper Rose Studio Flowering Gum stamp.

I will share a few more Christmas cards as it will be there before we know it.






I have kept  the card really simple as I feel the Gum leaves and flowers
 are the main feature here.
I have used Prismacolor pencils to colour the stamped image.

When doing such intense pencil blending I prefer to use Mi-Tientes 
pastel paper as a base, it has a lot of tooth and grabs the waxy pigment of the
Prismacolor pencils really well.




After stamping the image I have built up the pigment slowly adding layer after layer of pencil until
the textured surface of this paper has filled out. This can take awhile and sometime you need to use a blending pencil ( clear wax) or a light coloured pencil to blend the layers together.



To complete the card I have used a yellow Posca paint pen to add the flecks of 

pollen on the tips of the gum flowers.

I have also used the Merry Christmas everyone die cut from black card 

for a simple sentiment. 



Supplies used: 

23152 flowering Gum stamp

22150 Merry Christmas Everyone Die


Prismacolor pencils 


Thanks for stopping by to have a look at my project


see you next time
