A peak at the new autumnal colours of Pixie Powders today which make this subtle yet shiny background.
I stared by spritzing watercolour card with water then added Burnt Orange, scattered straw and Aubergine dream pixie powders before adding more water. I the took a print form the watercolour card using a sheet of vellum.
I cut a larger panel of the scalloped trellis die by slotting the die back into place got make a large piece. Next I cut a frame using the stitched dies that come with the lattice using the largest and smallest in taupe foundation card and the 2 medium dies in the pixie powder papers. I then mounted the piece left from the frame behind the lattice.
I then cut the cape daisies in the coloured velum, shaped them with my ball tool and mounted them with centres cut fro the pixie powder paper. I added white microbeads in the centre of the flowers.
I stamped the sentiment from my autumns child stamp set onto a strip of the velum and cut not with the stitched flags die adding a white mat.
Finally I arranged the flowers around foliage made with a selection of the festive foliage dies ( I love dies that last all year)
Enjoy...

Hi John and crafters all,
ReplyDeleteLovely card today John, like how you have used the scalloped frame dies.
The pixie powders autumnal shades look great. I really will have to get some Pixie powders to try all these techniques. Great idea using all flower dies and foliage to make a bouquet.

Morning John. This is just the sort of card that I like. Love the muted colours which look just a tiny bit vintage. I would have to say the Cape Daisy is now my favourite flower so I love the over-the-top spray in the corner.
