Shabby chic

Hey everyone! I am here today with a new card for Polkadoodles Challenge blog! This challenge is shabby chic! I used a sentiment from the Octavia Moonfly Say it all collection!

Shabby Chic 2

I used some older paper that I distressed heavily, some seambinding I dyed punk and a bunch of Wild Orchid Crafts roses. I threw some gesso over it all and let that dry.

Tulips

Posted in card, Power Poppy by

Power Poppy Tulip

Here is something a little different from me. This is the Tulips Digital Stamp from Power Poppy. I took the digital stamp and lightened it to a light grey in my editing program, then I printed it off and traced it with an Elegant Writer calligraphy pen, THne when that pen is hit with water you get all these pretty blue and pink hues that you see all through the front of this card. It’s a slow process but I really love the way it looks.

Power Poppy Tulip 2

I then took my Golden Qor Watercolours to fill in and add some more color to the card (if I was to remake this card the purple flower in the middle would be in the same colour family as the other 2, I feel that the purple flower kinda gets lost. But I still love the card). Once it was all dry I cut the panel to 5 1/4″ x 4″ and matted it on white then put it on a green card base.

Merry Christmas

Octavia Merry Christmas

Hey everyone! Today I have another card for you all using the Octavia Frosted Winter Collection from Polkadoodles. Wouldn’t have guessed it would you have? Nikky puts so much into these collections aside from just the images and sometimes its fun to just play with a large sentiment on a card.

Octavia Merry Christmas 2

I started by printing the image off at 3 1/4″ inches tall then I die cut it out with a stitched boarder. The back pannel has some Peerless Watercolours spread on it so add a bit of colour. I die cut some stitched snowflakes from Lawn Fawn and coloured them with the same colours, some pink burlap from my stash and white sequins finish off the front of the card.
