Onto my card

So my card this week has basically been made using one set of stamps with one extra sentiment stamp.

The stamp set I have used is called Doodles by Papermania.  I have used the paisley stamp to create the background by stamping onto white card with versamark ink, then heat embossing clear powder on top.  I have then used a sponge and spread black ink it up ink over the card, which has created the grey effect.I have then heat embossed the white flowers onto the black card.

The flowers are the 2 sizes of flowers with the set, I have stamped them onto white and black card and created the 2 tone flower and used a pearl gem for the centre and an xcut leaf punch for the leaves

The butterflies are again part of the set and have been stamped on alternat black and white with the accompanying gems to decorate.  The sentiment is from an unkown set and has been stamped onto a Nellie Snellen die cut, that has been heat embossed with white embossing powder around the edge.  I have added 3 pearl gems to decorate

Doodles!

Well it's another grey morning here in Sidmouth.  I hope it's nicer where you are!  For todays card I have decided to do something a little different.

So here it is!

I have used The papermaia clear stamp Doodle set for this project, red and yellow ink, and some embellies.

I have stamped the paisley design straight onto the card base, then inked with red and yellow.  I have then stamped the large and small pointed flowers onto the next layer and inked in the ssame way.

The sketch for this is from Sketch saturday.  The triangle pieces have been stamped and inked in the same way using bothe the paisley and pointed flowers.

The butterfly has been stamped, then cut out, then inked as above.  I have then shaped it and added mini red gems to the wings.

The flowers have been stamped using red and yellow paper/ card then cut out, I have then added pearl gems to the centre of each.  The swirls are a Marianne creatables die cut.

The happy birthday is also from a papermania clear stamp set 'sentiments'

I will be entering this card into the following challenges
