Pink & Main - May Release Day - Fluttering By

 

Well thank you for fluttering on over to my blog to learn a little more about my card today for Pink & Main featuring some of their new products.

I have used:-

Fluttering By

Fluttering By Die

Pull & Surprise Card Dies

Blooms & Butterflies Patterned Papers

Pearl Paint & Splatter

To kick things off I created panels of patterned, coloured and plain white cardstock using the Pull & Surprise Card Dies.  No pulling or surprising with my project today but just wanted to show you what a useful basic die it is that can also makes an interactive card too. 

I glued all of the panels together and to my card base except for the smallest one.  Here, I ink blended a focal point with Tumbled Glass Distress Oxide Ink, then I transferred the panel to my splatter box and used the new Pearl Paint & Splatter and splattered some on to the panel for a pearly shimmer.

I stamped the sentiment on the panel.  This panel was then backed with a piece of white craft foam and adhered to the patterned paper.  The patterned paper is from Pink & Main's GORGEOUS new patterned papers called Blooms & Butterflies.

I stamped the images from Fluttering By that I was going to use and coloured with the following Copic markers:-

Dragonflies - W5, W4, W2, B00, B000 

Dragonfly Eyes - C5, C3, C1, C0

Blush - R22, R21, R00

I highlighted with a white gel pen then I used Solar Spray in 'Crocodile Tears' and painted the wings so they'd shimmer and once dry I die cut and glued the dragonflies to the background and added jewels to their wing tips and three more above the longer sentiment. I only glued the bodies so that the wings could be teased upward and add some crazy dimension.

To complete the card I just needed to die cut the 'hello' from Pull & Surprise Card Dies from black and white cardstock, glue the two parts together and applied it with foam tape and with that, this card was ready send out, or, in my case, sell it in my Etsy shop.

I will be back soon with something new, meanwhile I encourage you all to check out Pink & Main's May release.  Thank you!  Happy crafting.
