A mother from my son's School has a birthday, she lives not so far from our home too...I made this purple birthday card for her...
For the gold stripe cause I dont have any gold paper more, I colored the white paper with gold water color from my new ink Kuretake Gansai Tambi (see this post for the picture of my watercolor set) from Japan.
I choose Butterfly stamp from Hero Arts and also colored with the water color. I love the effect of the gold on the butterfly wings.
I choose old design paper I ever bought in purple and gold and the flower cut out is from Billie A. in the USA, many thanks sweet Billie to send me some of this sweet cut out.
Here is the complete picture of my card:

I dont want to make a new post in a day :) also here is another card I made last night and already make a foto today with a little bit sunshine :)
I made this card for my lovely neighbour...she will have a birthday in 2 days...I made as simple as I can, I colored the flower with Distress Ink Spun Sugar, it is sooo soft the color and it looks like a ROSE color :)
I only use my score pal to make three lines as accent for the white paper (card base)

So pretty, Monika! Your butterfly is stunning! Beautiful colouring! Your purple/gold patterned paper is very pretty! I like how you made the gold paper too! This is a gorgeous card!
ReplyDeleteA card with designer paper, that's a rare one from you! And the gold and purple look fantastic together! The way you colored the butterfly makes it match the paper perfectly. And even though I haven't used purple in awhile it's still my favorite color:)
ReplyDeleteWow Monika the butterfly card is perfect great color choices and the butterfly really stands out on the white doily die. I love it. The butterfly looks like it's about to take flight. Love it.
ReplyDeleteThe second card is so simple but effective. Those score lines really make a bid impact. I love the look. You are an inspiration. Hugs dear friend.

ReplyDeleteMonika, that butterfly card is one of the best things I've EVER seen. Seriously. It. Is. GORGEOUS!!! My goodness I love everything about it from the gold watercolored panel to the delicate realistic-looking butterfly. It is so beautiful and I couldn't stop staring. It went on my Pinterest board so I could admire it again later! I like the simplicity of your second card as well, but that butterfly just blew me away!
ReplyDeleteWow was für ein grandioses Werk
