Another day, another swap!
Today is a postcard swap where the theme is to “flourish”. I started off with quite a thick chipboard that I cut to 6×4 and covered with gesso.
Once that was dry I added modelling paste through a Tim Holtz stencil.
Next I started to add colour. First magenta and purple using the decoarts fluid acrylics and then some distress oxide on top.
Next I added the wild flower image with white embossing powder and added a rough frame doing the same on the edges. There were some wet parts (impatient me) which also had some powder catch which left some other white parts. I liked this though. It gave it a rather loose feel.
I then added the sequin waste layer and some embossed Tim Holtz butterflies and then the Indigo Blu sentiment which I stamped and coloured using the distress oxides.
Really happy with how this finishes up. Hope the recipient also likes it too.
Happy crafting!
