Ringrazio tantissimo LOLS per avermi voluta per questo mese ed eccomi quindi, mentre sto ancora facendo la mia 'happy dance', a presentare il mio progetto... una card per il tema di questa settimana 'FEMININE' con l'utilizzo del bellissimo set di timbri 'SKETCH LOTUS FLOWERS' di SIMON SAYS STAMP. Come sempre trovate l'elenco del materiale usato e che potete reperire nello STORE di SIMON SAYS STAMP alla fine del post.
Hello everyone and welcome back! It's been a while since my last post on these pages and what better occasion for keeping you company for the month of May than having the pleasure and honor of being the Guest Designer over at SIMON SAYS STAMP MONDAY CHALLENGE Blog?
I thank LOLS from the bottom of my heart for asking me to be with you during this month..Hence here I am, still dancing my 'happy dance', to show you my project...a card for this week's theme 'FEMININE', showcasing the fab products by SIMON SAYS STAMP, case in point the beautiful stamp set 'SKETCH LOTUS FLOWER'. As usual you will find a supply list of the available material over at SIMON SAYS STAMP STORE at the end of the post.
On a piece of heavy watercolor paper I have sprayed the following DISTRESS OXIDE SPRAY INKS: RUSTIC WILDERNESS, MOWED LAWN, TWISTED CITRON, spritzed with water to make the colors 'run' and bring forth the oxidation, then dry it well.
Ho creato la texture grazie all'embossing folder 3D TEXTURE FADES 'CRACKLE' e con un blending tool ho evidenziato le zone in rilievo con i DISTRESS OXIDE INKS RUSTIC WILDERNESS e TWISTED CITRON, ritagliato a misura e messo da parte.
I created texture with a dry embossing technique and the 3D TEXTURE FADES 'CRACKLE' embossing folder, then with a blending tool and DISTRESS OXIDE INKS RUSTIC WILDERNESS e TWISTED CITRON I added color on the raised edges, cut to size and set aside.
Su un'altro pezzo di cartoncino per acquerello ho spruzzato il DISTRESS OXIDE SPRAY INK PICKED RASPBERRY ed acqua ed asciugato. Con lo Stencil BUBBLES ed il blending tool ho aggiunto tocchi di DISTRESS OXIDE KITSCH FLAMINGO e DISTRESS INK PICKED RASPBERRY, ho spruzzato lo stencil 'sporco' con acqua e l'ho premuto sul cartoncino, tamponando con un pezzo di carta da cucina, spruzzato di nuovo, premuto ancora e tamponato l'eccesso di acqua. Asciugato bene.
On another piece of watercolor paper I sprayed DISTRESS OXIDE SPRAY INK PICKED RASPBERRY and water and dried. With LAYERING STENCIL 'BUBBLES' and blending tool I added DISTRESS OXIDE KITSCH FLAMINGO and DISTRESS INK PICKED RASPBERRY, then spritzed the leftover color on the stencil with water and pressed on the cardstock, dabbing the excess of water with a paper towel, spritzed again the now clean stencil and repeated the process. Dried well.
Con l'inchiostro VERSAFINE 'ONYX BLACK' ho timbrato i fiori del set SKETCH LOTUS FLOWERS di SIMON SAYS STAMP su cartoncino per acquerello ed ho iniziato a colorare l'immagine con un pennello sottile ed i DISTRESS OXIDE INKS ed i DISTRESS INKS: per i fiori ho usato D.O. KITSCH FLAMINGO e D.I. PICKED RASPBERRY, per le foglie e gli steli D.O. TWISTED CITRON e D.I. MOWED LAWN ed ho usato il DISTRESS INK HICKORY SMOKE per aggiungere l'ombreggiatura. Ho poi ritagliato il tutto.
I stamped the flowers from the stamp set SKETCH LOTUS FLOWERS by SIMON SAYS STAMP on watercolor paper using VERSAFINE 'ONYX BLACK' ink pad, then started to add color the image with a fine tip brush and DISTRESS OXIDE INKS and DISTRESS INKS: for the flowers I have used D.O. KITSCH FLAMINGO and D.I. PICKED RASPBERRY, for the leaves and stems D.O. TWISTED CITRON and D.I. MOWED LAWN, and DISTRESS INK HICKORY SMOKE to add shadows. Then fussy cut the image.
Timbrato un sentiment dal set con DISTRESS EMBOSSING INK, aggiunto polvere da embossing bianca ed embossato. Ho strappato i bordi per dare l'aria vissuta e rovinata. Con le forbici ho 'rovinato' i bordi dei cartoncini , ho incollato del nastro biadesivo spessorato dietro al cartoncino rosa ed incollato sul verde, ho aggiunto la striscia di vellum e poi con una posca pen bianca ho fatto cadere delle gocce su tutto quanto. Ho 'mattato' il tutto su cartoncino bianco, ho incollato i fiori aggiungendo dello spessore e del filo bianco, ed infine qualche goccia di NUVO CRYSTAL DROPS SIMPLY WHITE.
Final touches:
I stamped a strip of vellum with a sentiment from the set with DISTRESS EMBOSSING INK , added white embossing powder and heat embossed. I teared the edges of the strip to give it a worn look, then with a pair of scissors I 'distressed' the edges of the cards, used double sided foam tape on the back of the pink cardstock and glued it over the green one, added the strip of vellum and used a white posca pen to spatter the card. Glued everything over a piece of white cardstock, added the flowers with double sided foam tape, white thread and few accents of NUVO CRYSTAL DROPS 'SIMPLY WHITE'.
