For my final blog post this month, I'm featuring the main stamp from the Butterfly Dreams set.
This is a beautiful stamp, and the temptation is to colour it and leave it as is. I stamped the image on 300gsm card using Nocturne Versafine Clair and embossed with clear powder. As this is quite a large stamp, I did use my stamping press to ensure a good image. The flower centres need careful treatment to ensure that they stamp out nice and crisp. The butterflies were coloured using watercolour markers. The berries called for glitter pens, although the slight glitter effect doesn't show up well in the photo. I then carefully divided the image into 4 and matted it onto blue corrugated card, itself mounted onto a 7 x 7 card.
Wow!! Such intriguing design! Love very much this card! Your idea is so clever and the bold colours just perfect on the blue corrugated cardstock!:) Thanks for the inspiration!
ReplyDeleteThis is such a pretty image and it looks great cut into squares and placed over the contrasting dark blue corrugated card Lorraine to make a beautiful card. x
