Welcome - thank you for visiting my blog again.
I recently saw a post on the The Born Doodlers blog using a faux cloisonné type technique. I have basically cased his card.
I started with a magazine illustration that I liked because of the colours and went from there, being careful how I placed the stamp to get some reasonably life-like marking - that was my right brain talking!!
The butterfly stamp I used is a (retired) Layers of Color stamp. This was also stamped and embossed on the black base, along with the sentiment. After the coloured layers were adhered, a glue and gold glitter trail was added.
This was mounted over gold paper, and then another layer of the magazine illustration.
A bow was added before the whole was mounted onto the bright orange base.
Thank you for visiting - any comments you may leave are deeply appreciated
May your day be blessed
