Hi all,
it’s Mandy again with a very simple yet stylishly grungy card to show you this
week. I’m using Carabelle Studio stamps for this one. Ideal for any occasion card!
Items used:
4 inch Square
Blank Card
Distress
Ink ~ Vintage Photo and Gathered Twigs
Take
your white card and cut a square out slightly smaller than your card blank.
Mix the
texture paste and the alchemy paint together and using a palette knife, scrape
some of the mixture through the stencil on the lower left side and the upper
right side of the card.
Leave
to dry … you can speed this up by heat setting but it will bubble which is
great to add texture but I wanted this card to be relatively flat.
Once
the paste is dry, stamp the Carabelle Studio stamp centrally, using the black Archival
ink. Blast with a heat tool to make sure it’s dry before carrying on.
Use the
Vintage Photo Distress ink to edge the card, and then the Gathered Twigs.
Stamp
the smallest butterfly from the Finnabair stamp set onto a piece of white card
and cut out.
Add
some of the star rub on’s to the card, just under the stamping. This will make
the main image slightly larger.
Add
‘hope’ rub on to the upper left of the stamped image.
Take
your sprays and undo the nozzle. Use the pipe to add some splatters to the
card. Then splatter water on top. This gives a softer and more watercolour
effect to your card.
Colour
the mini butterfly with the blue spray using a paint brush. Glue onto your card
wherever you like it.
Outline
the hope word and also around the edge of the card.
Matt
the stamped piece of card onto the black card and then onto the kraft card and
finally onto your card blank.
Mandy
Love this!!!
