Wei Wei's Crafting Garden: color pencil

you can do it

Hi friends, today I'd like to share this CAS flower card with you.

For this card, I took on the sketch of CAS(E) this Sketch #253.

I first stamped the florals on cardbase in black, and also stamped on the panel.

The colors are inspired by Altenew January 2018 Inspiration Challenge.

Since I wanted to create a clean style, just added some soft colors by using colored pencils.

Then, I added some trimming effects around the panel and adhered the panel with foam tape.

To finish off, I stamped the sentiment in black.

I'm entering to the following challenges:

Hope your day is as sweet as you are

Hi there! Have you had a good weekend? Have you been able to get in any crafty time lately? I hope so!

I was very busy in my work recently, so I have no time to create my card.

Eventually, I was able to sneak in my craft room for a bit on Sunday to put together a card for a sweet friend of mine.

Here is my card.

I started by stamping my little flower onto kraft with StazOn white ink. Next, I colored them with colour pencils. I also painted the edge of the flowers with Copic.

I wanted to add a little more dimension , so I cut a few flowers with foam behind them.
Then, I added some pearls on the pistil. To give this card more layer, I attached the kraft to another kraft which has some black lace pattern I stamped before.

To finish it off, I stamped a "Hope your day is as sweet as you are" sentiment with Memento ink.

這張白雛菊卡片的作法：
首先，將蓋上StazOn白色印泥的雛菊印章(JustRite的印章)，蓋在牛皮紙上。之所以選用StazOn印台主要是考量顯色，因為我用的牛皮紙會吸水，且目前手邊有的VersaCraft白印台的蓋印效果，沒有StazOn來的顯色。但是用StazOn的缺點就是要用專門的油性印泥清潔液清理，且很傷透明印章。
上一階段的蓋印運用了遮蔽技法，但為了再增加這張卡片的層次，又另外用泡棉膠黏了兩層雛菊。且為區隔前後效果，後面的雛菊用色鉛筆上了一層淡色，並用灰色copic在花的外框描繪一圈，前面的則不上色。
最後再蓋上字章(Clearly Besotted的印章)，並加上珍珠及麻繩點綴。
