Stampin' U! Swirly Bird quick & simple
Hello, here are the details for the first project this week using a couple of my favourite colours.
We started with a simple water colour wash for our background using two colours and blending in the middle with an Aqua Painter. Pat ended up with an interesting effect on her card after over wetting the water colour paper. I have to say it turned out really nice - unfortunately she posted it to her Brother in Law this morning so I can't get a photo :(
In the meantime, here is my simple background
We stamped the boat elements onto watercolour card and cut out leaving a small, even border. Before sticking to the card front we laid the pieces on the front to ascertain where to stamp the little flag, marking the spot with a pencil.
We then stuck the boat to the front and scuffed the edges.
We dded a sentiment from the set called Weather Together (love this font!) and added a few jewels.
I stamped a boat and some waves (from High Tide) on the inside and the envelope.
Here is the completed card and envelope.
If you would like to join me to make one of these cards and another project, I have further Coffee & Card sessions on Tuesday and Thursday afternoons this week. You can find the details here.
I will post details of the second Coffee & Cards project later this week so be sure to pop back soon.
Don't forget that Bonus Days are back for 2017 = £4.50 voucher to spend in August with every £45 spend - lots of us (including me) have already earned a voucher or two!!
You can find the products I used for this project below along with details of how you can receive a free gift from me.
Hope you can join me for a crafty coffee soon.
