Wiered Science

I created this card from Craft Artist and the Steampunk Inventor digi kit and a few embellishments from one of the other steampunk digi kits. I'm trying to get a look of mad scientist/inventor as the card if a student going to do his PHD in one of the sciences. Hence the bottles and vials on the shelves which i placed and grouped so that I could move them to where I wanted.


I finished by glazing the bottles but this was done as an after thought and after the photos were taken

Lipstick, brushes & Button

 

I wanted to play with Colours in Craft Artist particularly Pinks, Oranges & Greens. I decided t9o use Ladies Night and Botanique Digi Kits they had the colours I liked. I created the background Ribbons, Buttons, Materials and flourish with Botanique and the rest from Ladies Night I designed the brushed and lipstick pots using materials from Botanique placed the ribbons on the card along with the flourish I added the brushes, lipsticks and placed them behind the pots. I used the buttons and added a gem between them and personalised with a name. I added the text and added a few more faux pearls which i re coloured using the fill tool I finished by adding ear rings I printed the card. I then removed all the layers except the buttons and one earring which i then printed again to use as decoupage. I added glaze to these then put the card together.

Fancy Spellbinder


Another fancy fold concept from Sue Wilson. I used my new dies "Wings of Hope", Samantha Walker's "Antique Frames and Accents" , "Damask Accents" and a Papermania Sister stamp.
I decided to create a tone on tone card using to types of cream card one matt and one pearlised.
The tutorial for the fancy fold is on Sue Wilson's Blog "Parti crafts" and is list on the right side of my blog. I cut the border and liked the negative pieces that i also used both side and raised the actual border slightly as you

can use little bitty foam squares to stick it down. I coloured the butterfly while it was still in the die with Antique linen distress ink and it just gave a slight shadow effect. The sister stamp I used Adirondack Woodlands ink its a rainbow ink pad with four beautiful earth tones I used the brown and peachy colour I then cut it out sprayed it with adhesive and covered it with crystal glitter I stamped the greeting using the same Adirondack ink to the centre panel. and finished with Cosmic Shimmer PVA dark bronze and Olympic gold.
Thanks
