Better & Better

Better & Better

Hallo Everyone!

Welcome to our new topic, the title

of which is a narrowly disguised

Get Well!  So many of us have 

folk who are ailing in some way

we thought we would devote this

week to offering cheery Get Well

wishes in a range of different styles

Today we have Hazel Harler with

us and her style is Vintage:

"Hi everybody.  Good to be with you today!

I used these lovely Imagination Crafts rice papers

 I glued the striped paper to the front 

of the card blank then I tuned the card over 

and used a waterbrush to wet the edges,

 this enabled me to tare the excess paper 

away from the card.

Using the water gave the rice paper 

a nice frayed edge.

I cut the lace butterfly out of the 

patterned rice paper.

 I used a Carabelle Studio stamp and

 leaf green archival ink to stamp 

on the background.

The stamped background.

 I coloured a white piece of card by swiping

 the distress inkpads directly over the card

 I stamped the Carabelle Studio tag and 

butterflies onto the coloured card and 

cut them out. 

The sentiment is a Woodware stamp.

I glued the lace butterfly and some lacy fabric

 to the card, then I added some lace,

 tissue tape and stamped some script.

Before I glued the butterflies to the card 

I covered them with stickles, 

I also added some gems for the bodies."

Supplies:

Card blank.

Imagination Crafts rice paper..

Carabelle Studio stamps.

Woodware sentiment stamp.

Archival ink - black and leaf green.

Distress ink - victorian velvet and old paper.

Stickles.

Lace, tissue tape 

A great start to the week

Hazel.  Thank you.

There's no end to what you can

stick on a card is there?  Get 

out your bit boxes and see what

inspiration lies within.  

'Till tomorrow, 

Mickie xx
