Moments


This card was made with using new stamps I brought at the weekend and had to have a go with them.I love Black and Ivory together. The Ivory is much softer than white. All i used to create the background was to sprinkle Brusho's Green Moss onto some card that I lightly spritzed with some water. Here is what I used to make this card:

A4 Black card.
A5 Black 
A4 Ivory card 
A5 Ivory Card
Versafine Clair Warm Breeze.
Versafine Clair Nocturne
Creative Expressions Mini Smoothies
Brusho Moss Green
Brusho Vermilion
Brusho SprinkIt Iridescent Flash
White pen
Clear glitter pen
Cosmic Shimmer Pastel PVA Glue Ivory
Scoreboard (I use the Hunkydory Adorable Scoreboard.)
Lavinia Stamp Moment like these
Lavinia Stamp Group of Poppies
Lavinia Stamp Large Poppy


With both Ivory card spritz it with some water and sprinkle the Brusho's Green Moss over the card. Spritz it more if needed to get the colour activated. I then used some kitchen roll to soak up the colour as I wanted a gentle background. This photo shows the difference between them. The left side is where I used the Kitchen roll and you can see the difference. Used a heat gun to help dry the and put it to one side.

Take you black card and cut it to size. You want it 9 3/4" x 7".
With the 9 3/4" at the top you want to score it at 2 1/2" and 3 5/8". Flip your card over and score at the other side at the same measurements. ( Or see photo.)


With the A4 background you just made, you will need to cut:
2 pieces  2 2/8" x 6 3/4"
2 pieces  7/8" x 6 3/4"
1 piece 2 1/4" x 6 3/4"
You will need to cut a circle at 5" diameter on the A5 black card.
Do a slightly smaller circle on you A5 background card you did earlier.





With the two pieces measuring  2 2/8" x 6 3/4". Place the poppy in the middle and stamp with Versafine Clair Nocturne and repeat on the other one. Then with Versafine Clair Twilight, blend around the edges.






Stamp the fairy on the circle and then to ground her by blending Warm Breeze and a strip of paper to create a landscape. With a small piece of paper that will just cover her wing(mask her wing.) Stamp another poppy over the wing and stamp more poppies around the circle. Cut another circle for the moon/ sun and blend to create the sun/ moon. Like we did when we grounded her.
Glue the everything in place and ground the Poppies. Mix a small amount of SprinkleIt with some water and paint some onto her wings to give some sparkle. Paint the Poppies with the Brusho Vermilion. Use a white pen to do some highlights and use the glitter pen to draw around the moon/sun. The use the Cosmic Shimmer Glue to create some little dimensional dots around the card.





I hope this was easy to follow

    1. Hi Ali. Thank you for your comment. I'm flattered that you want to recreate it. If you can't do a circle a square could look just as good. xx
