POLKADOODLES CRAFTS

Hey there guys, this is Terry and it is my turn to give you a little tutorial on the Polkadoodles Craft Blog, for your inspiration.

Are you ready for it......here I go....

what I did first, I colored the background with different colors of Distress Oxide

After the background dried up I took the Clear Stamps from Bella Fleur and Belle Papillon and stamped them onto the background, lots of different sizes. I just love butterflies can you tell lol...

Than I stamped the same stamps on masking paper and cut it out. As you can see in the picture underneith......

I filled up the background with all sorts of tiny stamps from different clearstamp sets untill I was pleased with the result...you can add as many stamps as you want .....

So When I finished layering all the stamps and I was satisfied with the background I choose a color acrylic paint and with masked butterflies, the background was painted with acrylic paint......After the acrylic paint was dry, I was able to remove the masks from the butterflies and the color that I had previously done in the background now comes into its own in the butterflies themselves.

I had one more thing to do to finish my card. I edited the butterflies with the Graph It pen. I also edited the flowers with the white Graph It pen. And last but not least, I picked out a nice text from the Clearstamp set from Polkaodoodles and pasted it to the card. And around the sentiment I played a bit with a black pen to let the sentiment Pop Out of the card.

I sure hop I have given you some inspiration and hope you like my project.

WE LOVE TO CREATE CHALLENGE #4 ANYTHING CREATIVE MIXED MEDIUM GOES .....WITH POLKADOODLES XXX

Hello crafters outthere, we have a fabulous NEW challenge for this month, you really should check it out, you are going to love it.....

A Brand New challenge sponsored by the fabulous Polkadoodles!!

So what do I have in store for you ...
I made a canvas this time....

Are you ready for it.....

Here I go....

I made a canvas for this month's challenge. I made the background with various types of stamps and started with Gesso, then I used Distress Oxide.

I played with a stencil and stamped some of the georgous flowers from the new stampsets from Polkadoodles, they are really lush.

I cut the flowers and colored them with Distress oxide and then colored 2 different butterflies. Then I played with where I wanted to put them on the canvas. And I doubled the flowers because I thought a little dimension would be so much fun to create.

I stamped the sides and edges of the canvas with leaves and stamped some hearts onto the canvas. Last but not least I placed a sentiment onto it. That is how is should be.....Enjoy the little moments...
