Crafter's Companion~Kimono Butterfly Silk

Happy Sunday everyone! I hope you've had an awesome weekend so far! I'm back today to share a card for Crafter's Companion USA using Butterfly Silk from the new Kimono Series of stamps, dies and embossing folders! They are all so gorgeous!! 

 

I tried something different this time around. I was originally going to emboss this in gold, but couldn't find my gold embossing powder. I didn't let that deter my from my vision for this card. So I stamped her on some kraft colored cardstock. Next, I used a Sharpie Gold Paint Pen and traced around the black lines. Then I used a fine Zig black pen and followed inside the gold outline and filled in the large areas with my Spectrum Noir Black marker. Once I colored all the black in I went over the gold lines again and then cleaned up the gold lines that were too thick with the Zig .01 Pen. Finally, I fussy cut the image out.

 

 

I used some origami paper and ribbon from my stash. The awesome butterfly in the top corner is from Die'sire Essentials Dies-Beautiful Butterflies. The sentiment is part of the Kimono Butterfly Silk Stamp Set.

Crafter's Companion~Kimono Lotus Flower

Happy Sunday everyone! I hope you've had an awesome weekend so far! We've been having some severe storms in Texas. Friday we had a tornado warning and ended up in our coat closet under the stairs. There was an F1 tornado that passed through our town and fortunately missed us. Today we have more severe storms rolling in so I'll be a nervous wreck later this evening. Please keep us in your prayers for sure!

 

Crafter's Companion USA recently released a new Kimono Series of stamps, dies and embossing folders! They are all so gorgeous!! I can't wait to purchase them!!

Skin: FS1, FS2

Red: CR7, CR9, CR11

Umbrella: EB1, EB2, GB8

Black

Gold Sharpie Paint Pen

I found some Oriental paper in my stash and used it for inspiration to color my image. I just made 5 small circles with CR9 to form the petals. Next, I came in with the black to color the rest of the shirt. Next, I outlined the petals with the gold paint pen and then added white circles to the middle of the flowers. The sentiment is also from the same Kimono Lotus Flower set.

If you know anything about me then you know I'm a "collector" of dies....well actually all things crafty, but dies are my fave, haha! One thing I love are the look of border dies along the edges of my cards. What I've found is that I can pretty much use any die to make my own border die. For this card, I used Die'sire Essentials Dies-Beautiful Butterflies. I cut a strip of cardstock the length of my card. Then I adhered the bottom of the butterflies to the top of the cardstock strip, and glued it to the top of my card. The sentiment is from the Bamboo Set. The dps are from different paper pads. The ribbon is from Walmart. Those gorgeous flowers are from I Am Roses.
