Crumpled Paper Background

Tessa found a you tube video that showed how to make paper with crumpled paper that is then misted, so this is my version of it. A rosette die cut from sizzix then trimmed with silver foil tape

 

Pastel watercolor

After putting white card stock through an embossing folder, I then colored with water-colour pencils and blended them with a water brush

Distress ink background (picked raspberry,salty ocean,peacock feathers,shaded lilac) then some assorted colors of perfect pearl mists sprayed through sequin waste. The flowers are stamped in Archival inks(deep purple and manganese blue). Cherry embossing powder and a ribbon!

Wildlife Silhouette

Rebecca and I collaberated on this one. She wanted to make a card for her father in law. Using the wildlife cricut cartridge and some distress inks this was a fun easy card
