Hello and Happy Friday!
Welcome back to another Daring Cardmakers Challenge. This weeks challenge is called;
New Year - New Crafty Things.
Miri wants you to start the New Year by using a piece of your craft supplies (stamp, tool, stencil…) that you have never used before!
Give it a new chance or a beautiful beginning in the new year.
Maybe you even got some supplies for Christmas? Or, like in my case, the weeks before Christmas were just too busy to try out your new things.
A couple of months back I went to visit a craft fair with one of my best friends. I bought a couple of stamps and a few other crafty items but still haven't had the chance to use some of them. This angel stamp is one of them and this challenge is the perfect chance to showcase its beauty. The stamp is by Carabelle Studio and its called 'An Angel To Love'. I have wanted this stamp set for a long time and was glad when I finally managed to get it at the show.
I started off by creating a background using oxides and spraying water to get the effects I wanted. I then stamped the angel and the wings onto smooth white card and coloured the image using alcohol markers and metallic watercolour paints. Once dry I cut out the image and the wings then arranged them onto my background. I doodled a border around the card and added a few hearts on strings. To finish it off I have added a sentiment and a few gems.
I hope you enjoyed my take on this weeks challenge. Show us some of your creations and don't forget to share on the Daring Cardmakers blog.
Thank you so much for stopping by and I wish you all a very happy weekend. Check out all the inspiration from the DT over on the Daring Cardmakers blog;
