Butterfly Rainbow Shaker Card | Picket Fence Studios

Hello, my friends. Hope you are having a wonderful week.

I don't know about you but I am ready for Spring. I'm tired of the cold and can't wait for the rain, rainbows, and all the joys that Spring brings. Just take a look at the colorful butterfly card I'm sharing today—it says it all!

CARD RECIPE

Butterflies - Wreath-building butterfly wings

Frame - A2 rectangles for card layering set

DIY Shaker Pocket - Shaker Sheets - Picket Fence Studios

Shaker bits - Sequin Mix - Iridescent Moonshine

Sentiment - Wreath-building butterfly wings

Black Ink - Black Hybrid Ink Pad

To start, I trimmed the shaker panel using one of the frames from the A2 rectangles for card layering set. Then to ensure that there would be absolutely no movement when stamping, I inserted the Paper Inking Palette - 5x6 into my Misti. For it to fit nicely, I did trim off a little edge around the palette. I then added the panel to the ink palette, it should stick nicely to the palette without the use of magnets or tape. Next, I used a circle die to plan out the butterfly ring. I placed all of the butterfly stamps on the top half of the circle die to form an semi-circle, I then picked up the stamps with the lid of the Misti and removed the die in preparation for stamping.

Using the Pint-sized Paper Pouncers I began transferring the ink to each butterfly by pouncing ink onto the stamps creating gradient colors of the rainbow, and stamping the images one at a time. Wiping the ink off if necessary from the stamps if I didn't want the colors to blend. Once I was done stamping the top semi-circle, I cleaned off all the stamps and rotated the panel to continue stamping the rest of the rainbow circle.

Now that the rainbow butterflies were complete, I then stamped out the sentiment using Black Hybrid Ink Pad. I then created a shaker pocket using the Shaker Sheets that I wrapped around the panel. Before securing the last flap I added the Iridescent Moonshine Sequin Mix. To the back of the panel, I added a foam backing adhesive. Finally, I glued the shaker panel to a card base that I had blended out rainbow ink to the edges.

Make sure to check out my Instagram as I will be sharing a Reel there on how this came together. If you are like me, it is much easier to see how this came together. I hope this colorful card brought some joy to your winter day.

Thank you for stopping by and until next time... Happy Crafting!

Thankful Blooms Slimline Card | Honey Bee Stamps

Hello, my friends, and Happy Monday! 

Thought I would start off the week with a colorful creation. I've been wanting to play with the Beautiful Blooms Stamp set for a while and finally this weekend I did. 

Do you want to know a secret? Sometimes I get intimidated by coloring large images, especially when I don't have the time I need. So when I do I try to think of different ways to add color to them. Ink blending is definitely my favorite way of adding color images, and with a stencil, it makes things even easier! Love how this no-line coloring ink blended Slimline Friendship card turned out and hope you do too! 

CARD RECIPE

• Position the large floral stamp from the Beautiful Blooms in a full-size Misti.
• Using the Honey Bee No Line Ink, stamp the bottom half of a slimline panel until the image is visible enough to see the lines. Rotate the panel and repeat the image on the top side.

• Use the Beautiful Blooms Stencil to line up each layer with the stamped image and blend out the image using your favorite inks for blending.  My go-to inks are the Atelier inks from Inkon3. See the colors used in the supply list below.
• Once the ink blending was done, I then used a glue pen to add fine glitter to some of the floral details.
• To the center of the panel, I added the Thankful die-cut sentiment from the Bitty Buzzwords: Fall Dies.
• I then finished off the front by adding a few Aurora Borealis Gem Stickers for more sparkle.

• On the inside of the card, I completed the sentiment with a stamp from the Beautiful Blooms done in Bee Creative Intense Black Ink.

I hope you enjoyed this super simple make yet elegant Thankful Blooms Slimline Card. Let me know in the comments below what is your favorite way to add color to your images.

Thank you for stopping by and until next time... Happy Crafting!
