Jane's work of art + 2

Hi everyone, its Tina from Crafty Urchins i am posting for Sue as she is really busy. I hope you had a good weekend and bank holiday. Sorry it has been a few days since we posted so i'd like to show you 3 card designed by Jane one of Crafty Urchins DT team. Jane has designed these for some of her classes, aren't they beautiful she's very clever.






Jane used the following items to make this card.


Tim Holtz Tattered Florals die.

The Flourish stamp is by Clarity Stamps.

Spellbinders Harvest leaf die.

Marianne designs stamen.

Kars Starburts punch used for large stamen.

Tim Holtz distressed ink, Dried Marigold, Wild Honey, Crushed Olive Shabby Shutters.



Jane stamped the flourish randomly over cream card, then embossed them with gold embossing powder. The inked leaves were molded with fingers, then placed over the embossed flourishes in desired shape then fixed with silicon. The various sizes of flowers were them arranged to create the design.Stamens and pearls were added to complete the flower.

Jane used a Martha Stewart Butterfly punch for the finishing touch.

You can see the embossing on the leaves in this picture.




The next card has been designed using Stampendous Ruffled Flower.

It was stamped with Archival black ink on beige card. The edges of the card and the first flower were inked with mahogany distress ink. The second flower was stamped on burgundy card.
Pearl beads were used in the center for a bit of glitz.




Here is a side view which gives you a good clear view of the card.

The second card has been made the same as the first with exception of the ribbons and the sentiment which is by Hero Arts.

Also in the center instead of pearls Stardust Stickles have been used.

Thanks for looking at these cards we do appreciate it, be back soon, lots of love Tina xx
