Shabby Chic Card

~ Sathya ~ 39 Comments

Wanted to share a card which i made today and its an inspiration from pinterest.

Straight away to card 🙂

Am super happy by the way the flowers turned out in the card. Pink purpley Chrysanthemum kind and small roses are handmade by me using the sunflower and Fancy petals flower dies.

Card front, squares are digi pp freebies. Scratched their edges with scissors and distressed with Rich cocoa momento. Squares are made using the Cuttlebug square dies. The chrysanthemum diecuts edges are distressed using victorian velvet and spun sugar and the flourish are cut from pp and distressed using shabby shutters. Roses are made distressing with spun sugar distress ink and  assembled using glossy accent.

Inner central scalloped oval is diecut from a digi pp and distressed using rich cocoa. The flowers , flourish, are arranged on it making it a focal point and Sentiment is stamped using Rangers black archival ink.

White pearls, butterfly, rhinestones are added as a final touch to the card along with the diecut butterfly which is distressed using tumbled glass and Danube blue momento inks.

Hope you like it!!!

Crayon Resist Technique

~ Sathya ~ Leave a comment

Wanted to share a card with crayon resist technique.

Followed a color scheme of BGC here.

Stamped the flowers on a white CS and on it colored the petals by using a white crayon randomly. Then the CS is distressed using yellow pigment ink and wild honey distress ink. And rubbed the flowers with a tissue paper to take off the colors on crayon coated layer.

Flowers stayed as white where crayon stayed, rest CS got changed. This is mounted on pp and various CS layers. Wound few layers of Raffia and added a wooden button, rhinestones as embellies. Sentiment in added on a banner and popped up using ds tape on Raffia.

Hope you like it!

Supplies:

White, Kraft, Olive green CS, rhinestones – Nupur Priya
PP – Papermania -Sunshine pack
Wooden button and Raffia – Stash
Sentiment – Fiskars – Jovi
Stamp – Kaisercraft – Itsy Bitsy
Ranger balck Archival Ink – Jo Ann

A card with a rare combination. These color combos hasn’t fascinated me until i tend to make this card.
But when things fell in place, i started to like it 🙂

White embossed card is taken and distressed with yellow pigment ink at the corners leaving a central portion. And french pastry doily diecut is taken in halves and placed at top and bottom.

Victorian panel diecut is made from a white crepe paper, added to the centre of card. Sunflower die,olive branches, Small exotic buterflies #1 are from Cherrylynn designs. Few pearls and rhinestones are added. Sentiment is  inspired from stamping store and a portion of victorian panel die is used to cut the sentiment diecut.
Then the whole card is matted on a black handmade paper, which is added to white cs.
Hope you like it!!
