Today I have another gel-a-tins project to share! The more I make cards, the better I feel about the way they turn out. 🙂 If you’ve heard me talk about cards at all over the last year you’ve heard me say that I hate making them and my brain freezes up every time I start a new one. Well now I am happy with them more often than not. I guess practice makes perfect (or better than ugly at the very least 🙂 Anyway, here’s my first card for this month…
Here’s how it all came together: I got this Big and Wild Things set and this was exactly the kind of project I thought it would be perfect for! The first thing I did was stamp three of the images onto some canvas I got at Michael’s. I used three different greens for a natural, watercolor kind of look. I trimmed the canvas down and backed it with some green cardstock. I sewed around the edge with my machine and then inked and attached it to a kraft cardstock card base by Canvas Corp. The butterflies were punched from craft and I stamped on them with another of the stamps from this set to add some pattern to them. They got some brown Stickles around the edges to add a little more detail. The sentiment just got attached to come more card stock and then the card (with foam dots this time).
Cute!
