Daisy Wings Stamp Matchables w/Polkadoodles

 

Hello everyone!  Hope everyone is enjoying the summer and dealing

with the heat!...whew!  Today I'm sharing something a little different

with products from

Polkadoodles

Daisy Wings Stamp Matchables

This stamp/die/stencil set is one of 4 new sets at Polkadoodles!  I have also

used the dragonfly from the Daisy Dragonfly Stamp Matchables.  These are

wonderful sets to create with!  Let me show you how I made my card.

I started by stamping my 2 images - the dragonfly and the daisy bouquet.

I used a black hybrid ink on what card stock so I could color the images

with my Copic markers.

I used very light shades on the dragonfly's wings.  For the flowers and

leaves I used bright colors.  I did not choose my background papers 

beforehand so I was just using what I thought would look good for

colors.

After the coloring was finished I used a white color pencil to add more

defined highlights.

Copic Colors used:  YG01, YG03, YG17, YG67, Y02, Y08, YR24,

E97, RV52, RV06, RV19, RV69, V000, V01, V04, V06, V09,

YG91, YG95, E43,RV10, Y00, B000, BV000, B00, V12

After the coloring was finished it was time to use the stencils.  I

decided to just use one stencil on this for the flowers.  I used a

clear sparkly paste for the stenciling.  On the dragonfly I used

Stickles on just the front most wing.  I used a shimmer pen for the

rest of the dragonfly.

I chose a loose watercolor look paper in the colors of the flowers

for my background.  I really liked how it looked with the flowers.  I

also wanted to give these flowers and dragonfly room to "breathe",

so I cut the background paper to 4" x 6" and mounted it onto a

5" x 7" white card base.  Once the glitter pastes were dry I die

cut the flowers and dragonfly with the coordinating dies! 

I stamped my sentiment which was 3 separate stamps from the Daisy Wings

Stamp Matchables.  I popped up the flowers and dragonfly with foam tape and I

let the flowers go over the edge of the background paper.  I liberally sprinkled

tiny iridescent gems around the flower, dragonfly and sentiment...and my

card was finished!

This card was so easy to make - especially when there are stamps,

dies and stencils!  See the complete line of Stamp Matchables at
