Peach Lily

Hi everyone, Julie here, I hope you're well. 

I'm using the same Large Lily Imagination Crafts stencil I used last week, but this time I tried to create something completely different with it.

I used a craft card card blank this time and stencilled straight onto it, sticking my stencil down and using Deco Art Americana chalk paints in Delicate (yellow) and Smitten (peach). I love using these paints as they provide good coverage and have a lovely texture when dry. I wanted the outline of the stencil to stand out so outlined it with a Sakura white permanent marker to help make the flower pop.

Then I concentrated on the background (which you would normally do first, but I was just evolving the card as I went along! ) I masked off my lily using sticky notes and stamped Imagination's

 Script Art Stamp in Versamark on the craft card and heat set with WOW! Opaque Bright White embossing powder.

I then die cut the word love and 4 squares from the Crealies Decorette no.19 Twines die on a scrap of white pearl card. I attached some sheer ribbon to the top and bottom of the card and glued down the squares and text.

To finish off I added 4 pearls to the centres of the squares and added some glitter to the centre of the flower along with some Glossy Accents to the lily petals to enhance it.

                       

I hope you like my make today, thanks for visiting the Lisa B Designs blog today. We're only a few days away from Lisa's PaperArtsy workshop on Sunday, I'm really looking forward to it. If you'd like to attend you'll find all the information HERE.

Have a good week.

Large Lily

Hello everyone, Julie here, another week has passed by so quickly and it's time for new card write up! Today's card uses the Imagination Crafts' Large Lily stencil as the main focus.

Firstly I started with a square of super smooth card and blended Spun Sugar and Shaded Lilac Distress Inks to make my background. I then taped my stencil over this and applied Imagination's brilliant Structure Paste and left to dry overnight.

The next day I put the stencil back over the dry paste  and applied Starlights metallic paintswith my finger to the image. The colours I used were Kiwi Green, Bright Fuchsia, Green & Pearl mixed and Lavender & Pearl mixed. I graded the colours to get a more interesting look.

I stamped a sentiment from the Card-io Say It With Flowers set in purple ink and heat set with WOW! Clear Gloss embossing powder. I used a Micron pen to add some detail around the edge of the card. 

I added the card, using foam pads, to a square of light purple card which I'd placed diagonally on a 7x7" white card blank.

Well that finishes my card today, I hope you liked it. You can find information about Lisa's PaperArtsy & Imagination Crafts' Textiles workshops HERE & bookings can be made via the website. 

Bye for now.

Love, Julie x
