EASEL CARD - Petal Palette

Sometimes I just grab some colours and a stamp set and then roll with it to see what happens. This is one of those times. I felt like making a fun fold, because it was a fun fold kind of day. So on that note, it became an Easel Card.

One of the things I love about easel cards is that they fold flat, which is wonderful for posting and also for placing inside a regular envelope.

The rose image that was used as the main focus of the card was heat embossed using white embossing powder. I then coloured the flowers using a Night of Navy Stampin' Write marker.

Easel cards are simple and fun to make.

Dimensionals are used to raise the strips of card stock, so it acts as a stopper to catch the front of the card, allowing it appear like an easel.

Until next time. Happy crafting,

Kind Butterfly - Watercolour Wings

I have been getting some great feedback lately regarding the cards I have been making using the Irresistibly Floral Designer Series Paper. It appears that many of you have like the paper as much as I do.

Today I teamed up the Irresistibly Floral paper with the Watercolour Wings stamp set.

The four step stamping in the butterfly makes for a beautiful multi-coloured butterfly, just like the real thing. If you haven't used this stamp set before, don't stress, it is easy to use as it is photopolymer so you can see through to line up. It is also very forgiving if it is not lined up perfectly.

A number of people have asked about how I colour the paper, so I thought I would make a YouTube video to show you just how easy it is.

The card I am sharing today has been entered into two challenges.
