Your Special Day........... Enjoy. Birthday Card


Hi there guys, here is another post from me. It is about time eh.....so I was watching a video tutorial from #Martalapkowski and it got me all those ideas in my head, so offcourse I had to make a Mixed Media Card.....with the yummi digital papers from Marta offcourse and from the Junk Journal Studio the background papers. I just love making these kind of cards and working in my art journal. 

So what did I do, at first I worked with Gesso and glued my background paper on the card. Then I played with ModPodge and placed the digital paper Spring from the Junk Journal Studio onto my card. On top of that I worked with Washi tape here and there........

From the digital papers from Marta I cut out some flowers and butterflies, I have placed them onto my card randomly and colored them with some Aquacolors. Last but not least I placed the sentiment from Jenine Siemerink, just love to cut the words into a few pieces and devide them onto my card. 


Hallo allemaal, hier is weer een bericht van mij. Het werd tijd.....dus ik was een video-tutorial om het te bekijken van #Martalapkowski en ik kreeg al die ideeën in mijn hoofd, dus moest ik natuurlijk een Mixed Media Card maken.....met de yummi digitale papieren van Marta natuurlijk en van de Junk Journal Studio de achtergrondpapieren. Ik hou er gewoon van om dit soort kaarten te maken en ook om hiermee in mijn art journal te werken.

Dus wat heb ik gedaan, ik heb eerst met Gesso gewerkt en mijn achtergrondpapier op de kaart geplakt. Daarna heb ik met ModPodge gespeeld en het digitale papier Spring van de Junk Journal Studio op mijn kaart geplakt. Bovendien heb ik hier en daar met Washi tape gewerkt........

Uit het digitale papier van Marta heb ik wat bloemen en vlinders geknipt, deze heb ik willekeurig op mijn kaart geplakt en ingekleurd met wat Aquacolors. Last but not least plaatste ik de tekst van Jenine Siemerink, vind het zo leuk om de woorden in een paar stukjes te knippen en op mijn kaart te verdelen.


Ik zou graag mee willen doen met de volgende challenges:

WE LOVE TO CREATE CHALLENGE #9 ANYTHING CREATIVE MIXED MEDIUM GOES WITH POLKADOODLES XXX


Hi there crafters out there, it is time for a Brand New Challenge over at the We Love To Create Challenge Blog....are you ready for it.....sponsored by the amazingly talented Polkadoodles!!

Polkadoodles Ltd


So what do I have in store for you for this challenge...


 We Love To Create Challenge Blog


I made an Autumn Butterfly card, the ones that know me figured it out allready, I admit I am a Butterfly Addict, cannot help myself the butterfly is an amazing creature and I just love them. That's why I made a card with butterflies for the Challenge from We Love To Create.....

I started out with a piece of cardstock...I colored it with Distress Oxides, purple, orange and blue/green colors. I was using my Brayer to devide the colors on the paper for the background. I spritzed the inks with water and dried it with my Heattool.



After that my background was dry I played with some Gesso. Again with the Brayer I devided the Gesso on the paper untill I thought it was ligt enough. I have been repeating this a few times. 
After that, the background has been worked on with the Texture Galore, Honey Daisy and Vintage Text Stampsets. The Doodle Borders stampset is used all around my card. 


So what did I do next.....I had a second piece of cardstock or actually aquarell paper and played with water and distress oxides and Gesso.  Dried it up with my Heattool and than I stamped the Papillon butterfly on the paper with Versamark and embossed my butterfly. 



When My butterflies were embossed with white embossingpowder I took a babywhipe and tipped a bit of the ink on it, with the babywhipe I colored some corners of the butterfly. 


And here is the result. Than I played a bit with the Nuvo glitter Drops on the wings of the butterflies. And it gives them such a nice shimmer. 



After that I took the Paperpack Sentimentals and searched for a matching sentiment. I than cut out the words and placed them randomly onto the card.



So this is my card from upclose. I sure hope you like it and hopefully I have given you some inspiration on how to make a similar card like this one.

I had fun making this card, sounds a bit strange because it is a card that you sent to someone when a loved one has passed but still..I had fun making this card. And you can use this card for many other occasions offcourse...


The background is made with a layer of gesso, a bunch of panpastels mixed with water. When you play with PanPastels and water the colours mix so pretty all over your card or piece of paper that you are working with. So I used purple, orange and red. When the background dried up I stamped an image on it and last but not least I stamped a sentiment on my card.

I worked with these products.....
