Hello Everyone
Today I picked up some metallic acrylic paints from Kmart and decided to test them out on this card. IRL the bronze looks lovely and bright and shiny, but unfortunately, it doesn’t look that way in this photo.The image is from Papermania – Just for You set. The rest of the card is water coloured using Distress Inks.
Challenges: Inspired by all the little things #64, Addicted to CAS – Florals and The Flower Challenge – Tic Tac Toe (sentiment, white, watercolour).
Thanks
Helen
Hi there
My card features layers of blended Distress Inks spritzed with blue shimmer glitz to make a starry / misty background. The heart uses Simon Says Stamps Stretched Heart die cut from holographic paper. The sentiment is Mama Elephant – Wishing You stamp set using sparkle embossing powder.
Once again it is much more sparkly IRL. I hope this photo underneath shows it a little better.
Challenges: Scrapbook Boutique – September, Simon Says Stamps – Monday – Shimmer and Shine and Glitter N Sparkle #257 – Embossing.
Thanks

I had lots of fun water colouring this cute little flower fairy from the Papermania Enchanted Fairy Stamps. I picked them up in a throw out basket a couple of years ago but have never done much with them.
The background is water coloured, spritzed and stencilled using Distress inks. I also added a little Wink of Stella.
I think she’s quite cute.
Challenges: Just Us Girls – Color week #411, Happy Little Stampers – Watercolour -September – Anything Goes with a Spritz twist and Seize the Birthday – without the topping.
Till next time

Welcome
I’m here to share a fun birthday card I made for a very special little girl. It features the MFT Otterly Love You stamp set, coloured with Distress Inks. The ‘water’ is a small sealed bag holding some blue / green hair gel to give the water a squishy effect. (I’m sure this will be very popular!). I added some coloured banners and a sentiment.
Challenges: My Favourite Things – Sketch – MFTWSC350, Seize the Birthday, Southern Girls – Shake Your Groove Thing, or just make it wiggle a bit, Alphabet – Nautical and Cardz 4 Guyz – Nature.
Thanks for checking in
