Swirls and Flowers


Thank you for dropping by. It's been a bit difficult to craft this week as my daughter has been at a home for a couple of days due to that white stuff closing all the schools! Anyway thought I would post this pink creation of a card. The base card has been coloured with distress inks, worn lipstick and lavender I think and then the swirls have been stamped with pink staz on and then highlighted with a black gel pen. The tag was made in a similar way. The flowers were stamped onto acetate which I coloured with raison alcohol ink. I backed the flowers onto black card and stuck to the card using silicone. The swirls on the mirri board have been embossed with holographic and then mounted onto black card before attaching to the main card. The whole thing has been finished off with a few strands of wool that those furry scarfes are knitted from!
The background swirl stamp is from Hero Arts Clear Stamps, the tag swirl is from Crafty Individuals (I think) and the flowers are from Elusive Images.
