WEEK 8 - Billie & Monika background - Watercolored Background + BUTTERFLIES CARD + PART III Goodies & Cards from my crafty friends all around the world



 I still have  My Birthday Linky Party...you can click here  to go to the main post :) I would be so happy if you like to join with me :)

-------------------------------------------------------------






As I mention you on this post, that I make a challenge between me and  Billie Anderson from Ink On My Finger now is our WEEK #8, Billie has choosen the theme this time, we will challenge to make a Watercolored Background based idea is from this link


As I dont have Gesso also I choose water color paper to make my card. Here is the result :




This is a card from Julie Campbell that we CASE-ing or our inspiration:

 

How I made my card:

1.I gave the light red and yellow Kuretake G. Tambi ink on my paper  gave much water and let it flown. After dry I gave some splatter stamp in the light red color. (I am newbie at making splatter also still not good enough... LOL)
2. Stamped the sentiment from Hero Arts (2 differents) with black ink.
3. Used my goodies "tag" I have ever got from Vicki in USA (dear Vicki many thanks for those lovely tags :))
4. Adhere a bit Washi tape and some flower puncher paper in black and one heart gem stone.





Truly this is not my style I only CASE-ing the card on that link and I think I like the result...what do you think?




Hope you like our post, and dont forget to visiting Billie´s Blog and see the card that she made and leave her some love :)

I also made a Feel Better Soon card for my friend...she has detected by the Doctor that her old breast cancer go to other area...ooh nooo :´(...I was sad to hear that but she is a taft lady and she get chemotherapy now...I am so happy I can see her smile again...and here is her card I made:

  

The Image is from Bo Bunny stamp set named Flutter Stamp, I loveeeee those butterflies and I was bought at Stempel Oase in Munich :)

I try to colored it using this lovely photo inspiration challenge from Waffle Flower challenge:

Waffle Flower Challenge-20150413 

I colored it with my Kuretake Gansai Tambi Watercolor and some are with copic markers (orange and brown colors), I see no place to put sentiment ooh nooo...then I stamped it, also embossed it with black embossing powder on a velum paper and adhere it at the top of the card :) the color on the butterflies really vibrant I love it and I think my friend was so happy and smile looking at my card :) hope she will getting well soon...amen.

  1. Lovely cards, Monika! I like your watercolour background - you did a great job on the CASE! I need to try watercolour again! Your butterflies are soooo beautiful - I love butterflies! Your colours are so pretty and I like the vellum sentiment!

    I enjoyed looking at all your cards and goodies you received for your birthday! What a lovely display with them all together!

    P.S. Did you notice on my blog today - I used the red felt shapes you sent me - the stars - on my Christmas shaker tag! I think they are perfect! I mentioned your name - thank you very much! I will use the other goodies at some point and will mention you again so you will see them!

  11. I love the random look of your first card and how you avoided it looking just messy. This is random in an orderly fashion:)
    The same goes for your butterfly card. Vellum is brilliant for making place for a sentiment without covering the background too much. A good idea for me as I typically forget to plan a space for the sentiment (when will I finally learn from my mistakes??)

Just love the watercolour background you created for your first card too, goes so well with the sentiment stamp, very pretty. So glad to see your still enjoying your birthday.
