Butterflies & Flowers

For todays post I have used a combination of Honey Doo stamps, vellum and a Poppystamps die.

A few weeks ago I have a play with the Honey Doo Little Lillies and Leaves stamp set. I stamped these with Perfect Medium onto clear vellum, and then applied sparkling white embossing powder and heat embossed it.  Once this had cooled I then applied chalk inks to the back of the velum.  I then cut them out by hand and shaped them.

 

I used a variety of pastel colours and they were surprisingly sparkly!

 

I then used the same colour inks to a piece of card which were applied with the Inkylicious ink dusters (my new favourite crafting item!).

 

I then used the Bellina Butterfly Collage die by Poppystamps to cut into white card, which I then layered up with the coloured card, arranged the flowers and finished off with just a few pearls. This was then matted and layered up to finish it off.

 

I have to say I was really chuffed with the final result, what do you think?

 

 

You can really see the sparkle in this card ;-)
