Stampin' Up! Butterfly Brilliance watercoloured handmade card

Stampin' Up! Butterfly Brilliance 
watercoloured handmade card

Its Monday! a brand new week 

Make Today well the week Ridiculously AWESOME!

I LOVED making this card, playing with 

Fluid 100 - Watercolour paper and my

 Stampin' Up! Watercolour pencils 

I created a Rainbow effect background on the 

watercolour paper using my Stampin' Up! Watercolour Pencils in

Real Red, Pumpkin Pie, Daffodil Delight, 

Old Olive, Coastal Cabana, Bermuda Bay, Pacific Point

and Gorgeous Grape Watercolour Pencils which 

I then Blended with a water Painter so the colours

merged together, 

I heat set with my heat tool so it dried quicky!

I'm an impatient crafter!! haha!

I then mounted up the Stampin' Up! Butterfly Brilliance 

Stamp on my Stamparatus and stamped the Butterflies

in Memento ink, I re stamped it 3 times so the

stamped images really stood out, the watercolour 

paper is an uneven surface and I always 

find it needs stamping more than once, so the 

Stamparatus is perfect for this!

I love this sentiment! 

and I felt it was perfect for my card!

I stamped it again in memento ink onto 

Basic White cardstock, and then hand cut it out

as I didnt want to loose to much of the beautiful 

Butterflies behind!

I finished my card with LOTS of sequins 

from the Artistry Blooms sequins they our beautiful and 

thought they worked perfectly!

Stampin' Up! Watercoloured Unicorn Birthday card

So if you follow my facebook page (HERE) you will of seen I had a very 'Unicorn' weekend celebrating my nieces 6th Birthday... it started on Saturday with unicorn cupcakes and indoor play, the cupcakes I made are inspired by the super clever Cupcake Jemma who has an amazing you tube channel! go check her out she is soooooo clever!

Then Sunday we had a family day with more cake, yummy party food and of course presents and cards! now this year I was stumped as I made her a unicorn card last year!! who knew she would be even more unicorn mad this year! so glad I kept my Myths and Magical stamp set - Phew!!

Heres this years Unicorn card!!!!

My background is created with my Watercolour pencils on Shimmer Cardstock

I used Gorgeous Grape, Melon Mambo, Flirty Flamingo, Daffodil Delight, Coastal Cabana and Bermuda Bay Watercolour Pencils with an Aqua Painter to create the background, 

While the background was drying I coloured in my Unicorn also stamped on shimmer cardstock... using the same coloured pencils..

I die-cut 'Amelia' using my Alphabet Dies, and adhered with dimensional pads for the Eclipse effect background...

My unicorn ponytail was made with bakers twine from my stash all Stampin' Up! but retired stock Im so glad I;m a hoarder at times!! hehe

My Happy Birthday sentiment is stamped in Gorgeous Grape ink again on Shimmer Cardstock, 

I added lots of sequins to finish!

Kre8tors blog hop

Welcome to this months Kre8tors blog hop, I hope your enjoying our hop so far. 

Our theme this month  is 'Water' here is our brief:

Could include Oceans, Beach, Lake, Snow, rain, bath, shower, beverages - as long as it has water you can use it! so I went totally out of the 'box' and used actual 'water' with my watercolour pencils to create some quick water-coloured backgrounds..

Here are my cards:

The card above uses 4 watercolour pencils 

Granny Apple Green, Coastal Cabana, Gorgeous Grape and Night of Navy all from the new Part 2 watercolour pencil collection..

Card 2 below uses 3 watercolour pencils

Daffodil Delight, Flirty Flamingo and Cherry Cobbler

Card 3 below uses pencils from part 1 and part 2 (available as below)

Daffodil Delight, Granny Apple Green, Coastal Cabana, 

Bermuda Bay and Night of Navy

Each background is created on Watercolour paper, I laid down the colour then blended over with my Aqua painter, these backgrounds are so fun to make... 

The  Watercolour pencils are as you would expect from Stampin' Up! amazing quality, smooth they can be used with our aqua painter, blender pens or alone to achieve amazing watercolour images.

Heres what you get in part 2,
