Good morning peeps! I'm back again to share a couple of my 'Indian' samples from the shows last month. I hope you are all well and still enjoying good weather. So pop the kettle on, grab a biscuit (or two) and join me for some crafty fun!
Palace in Moonlight
My first project today features stamps from the Indian Textiles and Paisley Elephant sets; Distress Inks, Pearl White pearlescent paint, silver pen, black Versafine ink, clear EP, and a gold pen.
On a piece of black card I stamped the large Palace image in black ink and embossed it with clear EP. I then drew a large circle in the middle of the card, with only about two thirds of it showing. This gives the impression of the moon being behind the palace. I painted the moon silver, then added highlights to the palace with a silver pen. I added some clouds to the sky and a reflection below the palace using silver paint. I then edged the focal panel with silver pen.
On a white base card I stamped a border image using Distress Ink along the top and bottom edge of the card front. I added accents to the pattern with a gold pen, then attached the focal panel to the base card. On a piece of spare white card I stamped a sentiment in black and embossed it with clear EP. I added highlights with a gold pen and blended ink around the edges.
Henna Tattoo Palace
My second project for you features stamps from the Indian Elephant, Indian Textiles and Paisley Elephant sets; Versamark ink, Distress Ink, gold pen, and Silhouette Palace 1 Mask
I began by taking a piece of Kraft card and stamping some Paisley images, a border and a floral image around the edges of it to create a border, using Versamark ink. I like the effect this gives, it reminds me of Henna Tattoos. I then placed the palace mask in the center of the panel and traced around the edges with a gold pen to create the palace outline. I used the script image to stamp through the mask with Versamark again to create a pattern on the palace. I finished the panel by adding gold pen around the edge.
I took a white base card and stencilled the palace using Distress Ink. I then stamped the same border and Paisley images as before around the edges, and used a waterbrush to paint them. I took a spare piece of Kraft card and stamped a sentiment with Versamark ink, and die cut it. I then added part of one of the Paisley images around the inner edges of the sentiment panel, and added gold pen around the outer edges. I used the pen again to add dots around the words to make them pop, then attached the panel to the card with 3D foam pads.
