Day 26 of my 365 day challenge
Hi Craft addicts!
I had made a smaller version of this card but decided to make a larger one that could be given on any occasion.
How I made this card:-
- I cut out the large serrated edged oval in green self adhesive cardstock and a slightly smaller one in white card.
- I think this bluebell stamp is really cute (from the Friends of You stamp collection from For the Love of Stamps collection by Hunkydory) and so I stamped it on the left hand side using Versafine's Onyx Black ink.
- I then coloured it in using Red,Purple and green alcohol markers (either Spectrum Noir or La Plume).
- Using blue Altenew inks, I coloured the sky avoiding the plant, making it slightly darker at the top. I then repeated this with Green inks to create the grass.
- It looked a bit bare, so I stamped some very small butterflies and dragonflies around the sky and then added the lantern to one of the leaves and the toadstools to near the base of the stem.
- I used a small label die from Spellbinders and cut it out using white card - whilst it was still in the die I coloured it using a Green Altenew ink and stamped a With Love sentiment in its' centre using Onyx Black Versafine.
- Before I added the whole panel on to the front of the card, I decided to try out something and so I tore a strip of Green card (Co'redinations) as it showed the white core and then a slightly narrower piece and stuck them to the bottom of the card to look like grass.
- I then repeated the above with some blue card and this time glued it to the top of the card - trimming both to fit the card.
- Finally, I attached the panel using foam pads.
And there you are - a simple but stylish card that has been made using just some some plain paper, some Hunkydory stamps and alcohol markers.
