Latte Anya

TGF Latte Anya 1

Hey everyone! This is my first card for my Guest Designer spot over at The Greeting Farm, I was super excited when I was asked to fill this spot and can’t wait to share all my projects with you!

For my first card I coloured up Latte Anya  with my Prismacolor and Faber-Castel Polychromos Pencils.

I have still been on the use up my paper kick (that’s 5 months going strong on trying to use this stuff up! You still wouldn’t know I have touched it.) So all of the patterned paper are scraps from my stash.

Avery Elle Many Thanks

I started with a piece of Ranger Watercolour paper cut to 4×5 1/4, and use Distress Ink in the colours, Peacock Feathers, Picked Raspberry, and Squeezed Lemonade. I put the inkpads on a ranger craft sheet and sprayed with water, after drying the first layer of colour, I tapped the piece back in the water to add some further layers, increasing the watercolour effect.

Then on a white panned I stamped the Thank you sentiment from the Avery Elle set, the for everything is from a SSS set called Life is a Journey.

I then made a bow on the front of the card using May Arts Turquoise Twill Stripes ribbon. Added a few enamel dots from my stash in similar colours, put it all on a white card base and the card was complete! Quick and simple.

Fantastic Feathers

Feathers 1

 

Yay for more birthday cards, its that time of year that I am doing trade shows and these are a big seller for me

I die cut the largest feather out of the Spellbinders  Shapeabilities Feathers in craft foam, I then took some Gelatos and mixed a small amount of them in a blue and a pink into some Golden light molding paste. I think adhered my craft foam stamp onto a block using temporary adhesive (this stamp is reusable as long as you clean it). I coated my “stamp” using a pallet knife with my tinted molding paste and stamped the feather, then dried it and stamped the second flower.

Feathers 2

 

I used a happy birthday sentiment from the Simon Says Stamp Birthday Balloons Set  using Hero Arts Charcoal Shadow ink. Took the Prima Color Bloom Spray in Sunshine  and randomly splattered the color on the backround (I can not find the link for this in my list for at the bottom but I know SSS has it in stock)

 

Feathers 3

 

Finished it off with adding some random enamel dots from my stash
