I am now back to work after a nice long Christmas and New Year break at home. We have generally escaped the bad weather down here, although it is now snowing as I type and we have a completely frozen water supply!
I have enjoyed some really good play time over the holiday. This is one card I made using the fantastic Elusive Images Patchwork Butterfly plate again - I am in love with this set of stamps. This time I used one of the smaller butterfly stamps.
This was another hard card to get a good picture of. I stamped the butterfly 4 times on green parchment in black Perfect Medium and then heat embossed in Moonglow Angel Wings Gold embossing powder. I absolutely love the Moonglow powders and treated myself to a whole new set of colours over the Christmas break. I then mounted the butterflies onto a sheet of butterfly paper sent to me as part of my Graphicus Guild membership. The whole thing is matted on a couple of layers of green Remake card and finished off with green dew drops and a nestie cut sentiment.
I'll post a couple more of my projects over the next few days.
This is lovely Elaine, I love this set of stamps, but isn't the big butterfly hard to stamp?! It's soooo big! I adore the Moonglow embossing powders, and they look lovely on your butterflies. Can't wait to see your other projects, Judith x
ReplyDeleteThis is really gorgeous Elaine. I adore butterflies and you've caught the Moonglow shimmer beautifully on your photo.
ReplyDeleteOooh I can't wait for my Stampman order to come. I keep checking tracking but it's still being processed, darn it!

What a delightful card - so elegant. Love the embossing as well.
ReplyDeleteSnowing here also - had about 5 inches since 6pm - good job we stocked up at the supermarket on Monday!!
Stay safe and keep warm.
