It's time for some inspiration! At The Card Concept we offer a picture to stir your creative juices and this week we've something to get you in the mood for Easter.
I was inspired by the Easter theme and have used an egg and flowers as symbols of new life and rebirth for my mixed media card.
After cutting the egg I coloured it with oxide ink then used texture paste and the flourish stencil. My wildflowers are watercoloured using distress inks and distress crayons. For the sentiment I stamped 'Easter blessings' on vellum, embossing it with clear powder, and cut a double layer of the 'friend' die.
Materials used:
- stamps - Itty Bitty Greetings (SU)
- card - basic white, orchid oasis, watercolour, pastel polka dots and pastel ginghams (Etsy), vellum
- distress inks/oxide inks/crayons - scattered straw, kitsch flamingo, picked raspberry, dried marigold, ripe persimmon, shaded lilac, twisted citron, mowed lawn, crushed olive
- other Tim Holtz products - flourish stencil, texture paste, wildflower stems dies,
- other - nested eggs die (Waffle Flower), spatula, waterbrush, Big Shot, blending brush, distressing tool, ribbon (SU retired), Dimensionals, craft foam, mini glue dots, Well Written dies (SU), clear embossing powder, heat tool, orchid oasis ink
I do hope you'll be inspired to join us in creating and post to our gallery. As always, there are more cards to see from my fellow team mates over on The Card Concept blog.
Thanks for stopping by.
Cheers
Kerry
