Butterfly card by Titbelsoeur

Hi all there !
I love to use these new stamps, the butterfly ones have such a graphic look and this Butterfly Trellis © Neil Walker is a great stamp to make cards. To make this card, I have used watercolours, this is really appropriate to highlight this stamp. I have completed the card with the sentiment from Quotes & Sayings 1 by Debs Smith and used my watercolour brush to make the spots and paint the edges :

I hope my card gives you inspiration to participate in our

Butterfly cards by Titbelsoeur

First of all, I wish you all a very happy and creative year, that all your dreams become real !
I have used these new stamps to make nice cards : Butterfly Trellis © Neil Walker et Butterfly Square © Neil Walker 

How I made them :

I have made the background applying acrylic paint on a scrap of watercolor paper with a baby wipe, and made some splats with the leftover paints.
Then I stamped treillis and square with Archival ink and highlighted some lines with a white pen. Cut them out and sticked to cardboard folded in 2 to make special cards, one of them sent for a happy birthday, hoping she received it on time !

Et voilà !

I hope my project gives you inspiration to participate in our 

New Year, New Creative Challenge- Anything Goes

Weird backgrounds by Titbelsoeur

Hello everyone !
Still testing our fabulous new Artifacts stamps, I have first stamped Treasured Memories
in the middle of my paper. Then I stamped Butterfly © Neil Walker and hid both to stamp Secret Keys  on the left side and Spirit of Adventure on the right side and add colour . I then distressed the edges and stuck it to a piece of paper that I stuck to... guess what ?

I have used the same material as a background to this tag that was published on Facebook just before the launch of Tracy Scott awesome stamps :

If you have found out what is this background made of, you may enter my giveaway for a chance to win this tag.

Neil Walker Butterfly Tag by Gemma

It's the end of February already the mornings are starting to get nice and bright here, which always makes me feel better and we have a new challenge starting on the blog soon I am looking forward to seeing all the entries. 

I have a tag to share with you all today created using Distress Inks, a mask, and stamps from The Artistic Stamper.  

 Steps

1- Apply a thick layer of gel medium through a stencil on one corner of the tag, this will take a while to dry.

2- Apply a thinner scrapping of gel medium through the same mask in a small area on the opposite corner of the tag.

3- Spread three colours of Distress ink onto a glass mat, spritz with water and push the tag into the ink, dry between layers, 

4- Use a brush to help apply ink over the thick gel medium and continue layering until happy with the result.

5- Using a wet wipe or damp cloth remove the ink from the gel medium.

6- Using one of the inks from the first layer apply more ink through the same mask in two or three areas.

7- Stamp over the top of the tag with one or two different background stamps for added interest.

8- Stamp a focal image in the bottom corner and the top of the tag using archival ink. I have used a butterfly stamp designed by Neil Walker, ensure the image is overhanging the tag. 

9- Wipe off any ink from the gel medium.

Finnbair inspired Butterfly By Dee

Hi everyone Dee here with you today kicking of the New Year on the Artistic Stamper Team Blog!

I am a great fan of Finnabair's work and have always wanted to try a canvas

 inspired by her work.

The canvas was made by firstly putting embossing paste through The Artistic Stamper

Swirl mask, and allowing it to dry.

I used Neil Walkers butterfly stamp for the main focal piece this 

was made by triple embossing into gold embossing powder.

This was then coloured with alcohol inks once the stamp had

been triple embossed.

The centre piece had crystal gems stuck on to form the body of 

the butterfly. 

The main canvas once dry was painted with Gesso then fresco sage paint

& various colours were used to paint the background. Then

A mix of metallic paints and spray was used to paint 

over the background.

Well that's it from me for today folks please feel free to ask any 

questions if you have any. There is a product list below

Thanks for dropping by and wishing you all

A Happy New Year!

Pods & Butterflies

Hi everyone I hope you are well and enjoying crafting.

I have been having a play with some new idea's

this is a result.

Firstly I inked up the Neil Walker Stamp with versamark ink and stamped 

it onto black card  & clear embossed it. I used Deco art

 antiquing cream over the embossed image (you can use fresco finish).

 I took a baby wipe and removed most of it, during the 

process it coloured the margins so that they

 look chalked.

Next I mixed Fresco finish paint on a craft mat and swooshed 

it about then placed the fantasy plate stamp into the 

paint and stamped it onto black card.

I then covered in clear embossing powder and heat set.

I had a die cut clock frame that I rusted up and a large die cut cog that 

I also rusted up. I stamped the small clock off the tick tock plate

onto craft card.

I cut out three of the plumes from the fresco finish embossed image 

and them arranged it amongst the cogs and clock.

I cut out other pieces from the image and  offset them against

the main image.

I stamped the butterfly twice once in gold and then in 

pale blue and gold.

Finally I added gold sequins to the top and bottom.

Backed it all onto craft card and distressed the edge's which I coloured 

with ink. I hope you all enjoyed my post and don't forget to

 let me know what you think.

Cheers Dee x

As always I've used lots of Artistic stamper stamps here.

I've used  Prima Finnabare mixed media paper in the background. Onto that second layer is stamping map with Artistic Stamper Europe map image. I've used Distress paints Victorian Velvet, Vintage Photo and Broken china to color the surface randomly. I've also stamped dots with Random Dots Background stamp and Coffee Archival Ink/ Distress Paints

Butterfly stamp is from Artistic stamper Neil Walker design collection.

These leaves are stamped and cut to create layers under floral spray. I've used Artistic stamper Botanical Plate 1 and 2 for this.
