| Butterflies and Birds |
Hi friends...Thank you so much for encouraging my coloring on my
watercolored card...sharing yet another card with lots of watercoloring and inking.
I dont own many stamps and I dont buy many either since I tell myself I cant be bothered to color them!This cute love birds stamp was lying unused and unloved in my stash for more than 2 yrs! Yes I know so wicked of me to not use such an adorable stamp!!
 |
| Butterflies and Birds |
I colored the stamped image with
Faber Castell water color pencils and a normal paintbrush dipped in water. Highlighted the stamped frame with
Gold liquid pearls. All the embossed flowers were inked with
Tumbled glass Distress Inks ...I love this soothing shade of aqua blue!
 |
| Mushroom Golden Charm |
The
golden mushroom is a charm from the local market and I think the birds and butterflies would love a mushroom in the garden!
 |
| Heat Embossed Butterfly |
Stamped and heat embossed a butterfly and water colored it using Distress Ink Pads. I swiped the Distress Ink Pad on the craft mat , misted with water and painted by dipping with a paint brush!
 |
| Heat Embossing |
The
golden die cut atop the framed image was cut using a
Marianne Anja Corner die and painstakingly inked with an
embossing pen and heat embossed with
Gold embossing powder.
 |
| Heat Embossed Teal Flowers |
Supplies used:
Dies : Heartfelt creations Botanical Wings , Marianne Vintage Border , Marianne Anja Corners, Sizzix- Hero Arts Butterfly stamp - die cut set,
Stamps : Hero Arts Cling rubber Butterfly, Autumn Leaves dmd Love birds clear stamp , Heartfelt creations Botanical Wings

| Craft Space |
You can see my favorite crafty tool my Big Shot , some cards I made this month and my favorite Tim Holtz scissors in the photo above. In the next photo you can see my adhesive tapes, scissor collection and essential pens,pencils and scale.

| Craft Space |
My working surface has 4 levels [ I have shown you 2 levels in these pictures] so that the height is just right for me to craft
sitting as well as
standing when I want to .In this photo you can see some of the cupboards used to store craft supplies.The whole space was designed by my hubby who is an ENT Surgeon but very talented at designing!
A lot of people have asked me to share my crafty space photos....I will take more photos and share a full reveal later!
Your card is absolutely lovely, all the colour, shape, dimension and embossing makes it really rich and vibrant. And what a gorgeous collection of cards and a lovely workspace you have!

P.S I am very jealous of your lovely craft space..... I have to 'make do' with my dinning room table!
What a lovely card. Yes that is a very pretty little bird stamp and I love your flowers and butterfly too. Barbxx
ReplyDeleteWonderful bird coloring. Especially like the heat embossing on the Butterfly. Wonderful craft space. So clean & organized. We had a Tuff Shed built and I was a U Haul van driver & packer yesterday to move stuff out of rental storage unit. Donated alot of stuff to Salvation Army. Alot of people will have a wonderful Christmas this yr. Hubby built shelves in the Tuff Shed, painted the floor with a sealant. He also organized the stuff I had moved into it.
