Todays card is back to water colouring and this is the Peonies Scrolls Stamp from Altenew.
I bought mine from Make the Day Special and they have many dies and stamps sets that match each other.
It was lovely to sit and relax as I coloured the flowers and I used the Aqua Tints from Spectrum Noir to get the look
The finished card is 5x7" and I layered the panel onto some pale pink card.
I have used the die set Peony Scrolls Die to cut out several flowers and leaves, after they have been coloured and allowed to dry
I have used foam pads to layer on them onto my card front and it gives them varied heights so that some overlap others
The leaves are just tucked underneath each of the flower heads and again I used foam pads.
The sentiment is a chipboard one from Want2Scrap but I wanted to make it more glamorous so I added some gold foil to it with the Heidi Swapp Minc Machine
I have only had the new Minc Machine a few days and I am still playing around with it to see what I can create but I will be sure to add some videos as soon as I can. But it looks like a lot of fun to play with.
More tomorrow ...

ReplyDeleteHi, Christina,
ReplyDeleteMy first attempt to comment vanished into thin air when I lost my broadband connection, so let's try again. I woke up this morning feeling like warmed up death, so this card really cheered me up as it's so colourful. My mum loved peonies, especially the gorgeous red ones we had in the garden, so this has brought a smile on my sickly face today. Thanks so much for sharing, I always love seeing your colouring as you do it so well.

Love the card ... so pretty! I also love the foiling of the sentiment, do you know of a way I could foil something without a machine? I would love to be able to but cannot get a machine. Any tips you have, would be gratefully received!

Gilding Flakes and some Flake and Glitter Glue give a really pretty effect and the Gilding flakes come in many different mixes. I have a tutorial on using Gilding Flakes that you may find useful ... http://www.card-making-magic.com/gildingflakestutorial.html
