Hi All!
I have a couple cards to share today that I made last Saturday. The first one is inspired from a Make It Monday challenge. I used my new Little Bitty Bird stamp set from Papertrey Ink.
I generally don't decorate the inside of cards, but maybe I should start because I like the look of this! I used VersaMark on both pieces of the tealy-green paper with a pattern stamp to create a textured background. Also, I added Diamond Glaze to the birds on the front as well as inside. The white paper with the sentiment is one piece of paper that wraps around from the outside to the inside. That's something that I hadn't done before.
In my next card, I tried to create a 3D effect by stamping some of the flowers with full ink and then others with partial ink. I would stamp one flower then immediately, without re-inking, stamp another. I don't think it really worked. I think that if I had more realistic flowers, versus cartoony, then it might look better.
I accented the two outlined flowers with Stickles glitter and on the other three flowers I added Diamond glaze to the very center. To make the clouds, I hand-drew the shapes on the back of the patterned paper and cut them out with my scissors. I thought they needed a little oomph, so I added the white stitching lines around the shape. Finally, I outlined the whole card with a gray marker.
Thanks for checkin' these out! I love sharing my "work" with others!
