More Echinacea and Moth with steps

 Evening All,

Another really cold day. So here are a couple more cards from Jane's new stamp release........I did say that I liked this stamp set lol.

I was asked to provide step by step instructions for this card, so I thought that I would share them here with you too.

Steps:

1. Paint a piece of kraft card with Mushroom Matt Chalk paint and leave to dry.

2. Stamp and emboss Echinacea and moth onto a piece of watercolour card.

3. Paint the watercolour card with plenty of water and then ‘drop’ the pigment stain inks onto the images. The embossing acts as a resist and helps to keep the ink inside the lines. Leave to dry.

4. Apply crackle glaze to the piece of kraft card with the chalk paint on it. Make sure to apply the glaze in one direction only and do not be tempted to go back over any area.

5. Fussy cut the echinacea and moth and add them to the crackled panel using Cosmic Shimmer glue and foam tape.

6. Trim the panel around the coloured images and add faux stitching using a ruler and black micron pen.

7. Add the panel to a card made from a sheet of Chestnut card stock.

8. Stamp and emboss the sentiment onto a scrap of watercolour card, trim and add to the card with foam tape.

The stamped, embossed and coloured panel was created in the same way for this card

I just trimmed round part of it and layered it over a piece of  embossed card highlighted with gilding wax.

The sentiment was taken from another of the stamps from this release JGS679 Fuzzy Friends - Hugo.

Let's hope that these brought a little bit of sunshine into a cold a dismal day.

Thanks for stopping by.
