Rambling Rose Channel Card

Hi Everybody,

I'm late to the party again and I just don't know where the time goes. One day it's Friday and the next it Wednesday and in between are a lot of missing days.

Still here I am now with another of the Charming Channels Cards and this one features the Rambling Rose. 

This is definitely my favourite one and on this card I have used Glossy Accents to highlight the flower.

I stencilled the background panel with Abandoned Coral and then added it to the card with foam tape underneath

It has been dotted with tiny gemstones and the flowers are also raised with foam tape 

If you use Glossy Accents add them at the end as you will need to put the card to one side for them to dry,  and it may take a good few hours to do so.

Otherwise you could end up sticking your fingers in it and making an awful mess ...

ask me how I know this ????

More tomorrow ...

Stunning Snowdrops

Hi Everybody,

This tone on tone card is created with the Stunning Snowdrops, which is part of the Charming Channels Collection available at Craft Stash.

I cut the channel so that it was along the right side of the front and I used foam tape to raise them from the base card

The sentiment has been stamped in black with the one from the stamp set and then I have cut the edges with the thin border die and add that with foam tape too.

The sentiment and flowers have been stamped in black and then I used alcohol markers to add a bit of shading to the flowers and stems

You can use any of your favourite mediums to colour your flowers.

I added a little pale grey to the white petals and the centres of the flowers I have touched with a little yellow and the leaves green

I used a picture of Snowdrops from the internet as my guide to colouring the flowers and they do look lovely.

Beautiful Butterflies

 Hi Everybody,

Most of us love adding a butterfly or two to our cards as they make it all seem very pretty and feminine. Plus it's a great way to hide that mucky fingerprint if needs be ... if you know what I mean , and I am sure that you do!!

So today I am using the Beautiful Butterflies from the Charming Channel Collection along with my favourite colour scheme of Blueprint Sketch, Wilted Violet and Mermaid Lagoon.

I blended these onto Centura Pearl Card with my brushes from Aldi from a lovely finish to my background panel.

The clever little trick with the ink pads gives a special finish to the sentiment and I used it for the verse on the inside too.

It doesn't harm the ink pads at all as they can easily be cleaned with a tissue.

Another lovely Channel Card that is ready to send and these new dies can help you to get the same results every time.

More tomorrow ...

Charming Channels - Rambling Rose

 Hi Everybody,

The new collection of dies where launched on Fridays Facebook Live and they are a lovely addition to the range.

There are four different die sets Rambling Rose, Delightful Daisy, Stunning Snowdrop and Beautiful Butterflies.

Each die set has seven pieces to it and the channel die is quite large. There is a separate piece to create a back drop for the channel.

There is a lovely verse within the stamps sets that can be used either on the front of the inside of the card

This is my favourite set and to the rose I have added Glossy Accents and some diamante.

I will shop you the other sets over this week and they are a good buy if you but both sat amps and dies together.

More tomorrow ,,,

Hugs xx
