Masking Technique with beautiful Butterflies

Hello Everyone,

Today I have another technique card on my blog.With this card I just wanted to have lot of colors on my card as the theme.I chose butterfly stamp from Urban stamp and a sentiment from Penny black.Let me show you the card first and then we will proceed with the procedure.

Procedure

I chose to work on white card stock and make it a single layered card.I have used Neon inks from HERO Arts.I stamped my first butterfly on the card stock and simultaneously created a mask on making sheet for the butterfly.

Using the same mask,I went on stamping one butterfly on partially over another without messing the look.That's where you can notice the butterflies are looking one top of another.

The technique is simple and quite old but I still love to use it as the results are beautiful.Lastly I stamped the sentiment with Black Archival Ink and added few cup sequins to the card from my stash.

Hope you enjoyed the card.I am linking the card to following challenges:

Sparkle and Shine

Hello Friends,

Today I am so excited..this is my first post for Craftyscrappers as a design team member.I have a beautiful inspiration project for you all where I have used lot of Craftyscrappers products.Before I talk more on these awesome products,let me give you a glimpse of my work.My inspiration behind this project are my two little princesses,my daughters...Myra and Misha.

To make this piece,I used a canvas board as my base.Then I applied a coat of Gesso all over the board.On one of the corner,I used Rose Bunch stencil from Craftyscrappers with modelling paste and let it dry.I had an old crochet piece done by my mom which was little torn on half of one side...i used the other half to create a beautiful semicircle pattern running on side of the board.I stuck this using multi medium matte glue.After that I applied one coat of Gesso all over on the crochet piece.

I made these flowers separately and colored them using distress inks.Then they are hand molded to turn into blooms. Center of flowers is enamel dots.

Once all the Gesso is dried,i started with my favorite activity with my favorite Craftycrappers release...The Shimmer sprays...I have used a mix of 3 colors in sprays...The effect is awesome..I think my project is already speaking about the goodness of these sprays....definitely a must try for all crafters and non crafters too.

I have used heat tool to dry the sprays .Then I used some quotes from "U SPARKLE" stamp set ..stamping with Craftyscrappers stamps is super cool as they are good with all surfaces.I used black archival ink to do stamping.

Lastly I have stuck some embellishments like beads,Inka gold,printed quotes from Prima marketing,resin frame,mdf ruler embellishment and Stampendous gold luxe mix to enhance the beauty.

Sharing some close ups now
