Mother

Hi everyone yesterday this card was posted over at the Just For Fun Stamp blog. I forgot to write up a post for here. :-( With this month having Mother's Day and the "Let's Hear It For The Girls" stamp challenge I thought I would create this card. I love this quote about Mother and  the quote would even make a nice birthday card.



The quote was stamped on Deli paper. It is adhered to cardstock which was embossed with a Darice embossing folder. I should have used watercolor paper as it curled and I had to trim my embossed panel. I was experimenting again. I sprinkled green,blue and yellow Brusho Colour Crystals which are powder pigments on my embossing folder.  I then sprayed my cardstock wet and placed it in the folder and embossed like usual. After the card dried I used an orange gelato on the butterflies and painted over with iridescent medium to soften the color. I used a black Sakura Glaze pen to add details to the butterflies. It is a good thing the black Glaze pen is available separately as I use it a lot. I love the shiny embossed look I get with using it.

I hope you will join me in the "Let's Hear It For The Girls" challenge. You do not need to use a Just For Fun stamp to be eligible for a gift card. Any stamp you have will work. Your project also doesn't have to be a card. It can be anything you like as long as you follow the rules. Best of luck!

Wishing you Happy Frugal Crafting till we meet again!

  2. Absolutely stunning. Great work with the Brushos, and I love the embossing folder. Nice sentiment too.
