Papirnato Srce

Time for some summer bubbles.. and not only in our drink :) The card was made using a stencil and Distress inks for the background with additional shading on the edges of the card panel. The Greeting Farm's little mermaid stamp was colored with Copic markers, then cut out with coordinating cutting die and mounted on an oval shaped velum. I added green embellishments to make it more vibrant. I am entering the card in:  1. Craft-alnica Izziv #315 - Poletje 2. Bastel traum challenge #115 - Anything goes  #btchallenge115 3.

'The world is a book and those who do not travel read only one page.' Summer vacation!! It's time to pack your bags and go... everywhere! Traveling was always my favourite thing to do. New places, new people and... mmmm all the tasty new food. Can't wait for the next one :) This time I also decorated the inside of the card to match the design in the front panel. So it's a card pretending to be a postcard. (: I am entering the card in  1. Craft-alnica Izziv #315 - Poletje 2. Bastel Traum Challenge - Anything goes #btchallenge115

  Following this fortnight’s challenge at Craft-alnica I created a card using a scrap piece of newspaper. I really liked this image from a skincare ad and saved it but I didn’t know how to use it. It was buried in my scraps pile for literally ages and I have already forgotten about it.  I am happy the challenge made me think outside the box and finally make use of this serene beautiful image and I feel as if the process of putting together this card ran itself this time - pieces on my creative desk simply fell into place within minutes without overthinking. So… thank you - hvala! Craft-alnica Izziv #314: PAPIR iz REVIJE ali KOLEDARJA Najlepši par - Galerija meseca julija

  For the card I combined two sets of MFT stamps:  Mermazing  and  BB Drink up the sunshine  which I stamped with Copic friendly ink. I usually go for  Memento - Tuxedo Black.  Then I colored them with Copic markers. I used  Distress Inks and Oxides  Salvaged Patina, Broken China, Peacock Feathers, Salty Ocean and Blueprint Sketch for the sea, Vintage Photo for land which I applied with a blending tool. On the bottom panel I used the technique where I put a stencil over the inked background and lightly wipe it with a baby wipe to remove a little bit of the ink to create the bubbles. I lightly stencilled the clouds on a top folding white card panel (they are not well visible on the photo). I finished off the card with holographic frames, a sentiment from Mermazing stamp set and pearlescent half pearls. For stamping sentiments I prefer the  Versafine Onyx Black ink . I hope to sea you on my blog again soon! Entering in  Vesela hi...

  Looking at the female representation in politics lately, it looks like the time has come for strong women - warriors! So here is one to join them. She might look cute, but be careful - she knows how to wield her bow and arrow. Magnolia’s sagittarius Tilda colored with Copic markers on a Mama Elephant Combo rectangle and added metallic hot pink hearts. I am entering the card in 1.
