Natures Nest, Of The Earth & Asian Artistry my new invented technique

Good day to y'all

so today I have something so different for you!

What I was working on these past view days, is a new background technique that I created

I was so intense into it that I did not even take photos until after

do y'a think I will be able to repeat this???

Who knows LOL

okay so I also used Bleach - I am going to do Bleach on Saturday again, but in entirely different way then today.

soooooooooooo................... I used the colours from the Just Us Girls Challenge

I beleive this challenge was created just for me lol

This is more what I am comfortable with

so these are my colours

I will show you as we go the stamps I used cause I changed my mind alot he he

and I had  a HUGE HUGE HUGE ROSA moment

ready for a few giggles

okay here we go! LOL

okay so like I said after making my background with

ink, watercolourcrayons, markers, shimmer mist and shimmer paint this is what I got

but this is not the end product just you wait

okay then I used my stamp (dragonfly from the Natures Nest - I got this stamp cause Sandi made such beautiful cards with this set, and I had never even noticed in the catalogue - my bad - thank you Sandi)

What I did with this is I used a paper towel soaked in bleach - in a little container and put the stamp right in the bleach - and stamped direct to card stocke

cool uh?

okay now let's see what other kind of damage I can do lol

okay so I some layers with dabbing ink a sticky note

I show you in a bit

then I decided to use the flower from of the earth

WARNING
I did not like it lol

oh my goodness

do you know how lucky I am that I used Craft ink???

I was able to wipe it!

with a BABY WIPE

okay so now took off the flowers that I did not like

and I am adding more colour (that went away with my wipe) lol

I used a wripped post it note and all three of my colours

I applied on a dabbers and dabbed aways

so I decided to go with Asian stamp

BUT I did not use part I avoided getting ink on the bird!

 
What do you think?

I am using this beautiful ribbon and I am going to make knot in it

but then I decided the greeting was to big

so I trimmed it down

trimming

now for knots in the ribbon

now for some bling bling

it's coming together now!

The Greeeting is on and I just have to finish the layers and put the dragonflies on

What do you think??

do you like my card??

oh my goodness another Rosa moment

I make the scrore line UPSIDE DOWN

oh my..........................

lol

he he

okay I fix

okay so then I am just going to make an easel

and voila

I am finally done

holly what a journey lol

What do you tink??? 

I would just love to hear what you think !

it turned out really nice

This is a FANTASTIC card. It looks like a painting on canvas but with a card instead. You truly have an eye for art. Thanxs again for sharing such great posts. I always look forward to a new day of posting. Lots of inspiring go on here. Thank U Monica :)

[Sandy Jones]

What an awesome background! Love it....well, love the whole card! Sounds like everyone wants more detail on the 'how to'! It's absolutely gorgeous!!!

[Sue Root]

Your background is fantastic. The dragonflies look pretty cool done with the bleach. Liked seeing your knotted ribbon. I tried something similar the other day, but couldn't get it to turn out the way I envisioned. Maybe I needed to add bling like you did :)

[Mitzi]

Love your background. And your ribbon effect is so different. How do you think of all that new stuff? Very cool card.

[Maria Levine]

WOW, this is very cool! LOVE that background and the ribbon soo neat!! What a fantastic tutorial! Thanks so much for playing along with us this week at JUGS!

[Ruthie - rainbowkreations]

[Jan]

I like the way you knotted that ribbon. The background is really cool.Maybe another time you can show us how you did it. I am a huge dragonfly fan.Love them.

[Linda]

How can you possibly find a way to kick it up a notch EVERY day? This card is super fantastic! Love the ribbon knots and the background is to die for. You picked just the right sets to show off your spectacular background creation

[Candy Mills]

Oh Carole'Anne!
That background is to die for!!! Sure wish we saw how you made it....
Beautiful card!
Sorry I have missed your last two posts - I am out of town for 3 weeks. I will have to catch up with them when I get back. Now I have computer access I should be able to see the rest :o)
Hope work was OK as you were short staffed.
Hugs, Candy

I love it!! Wow, I love the background and how you knotted the ribbon. Bows and I don't get along. I'm not sure about using bleach though, I'm a klutz with wet stuff.

[Robin Merriman]

Beautiful card my friend - love your background and that ribbon work is really gorgeous! Love it's uniqueness!

[Nicole Tugrul]

Beautiful card..I love the background. You have some amazing talent!

[Carri McMullen]

What a really unique way to add ribbon. Thank you for sharing.

[Tammy Jackson]

Oh, Carole'Anne how beautiful. So unique. I LOVE it! The ribbon is beautiful. You are the most amazing artist. I love you and your work my dear friend.
Big HUG to you and my favorite furry Canadian friends!

[Selene Kempton]

Simply gorgeous!

[Pat Turner]

Love the final outcome of the color, it is really gorgeous. The flower and dragon flys add that little extra to break up the design. Good job! I would love to win this blog candy. Beautiful sets!

[Carolyn]

I thought the flowers looked really good. As usual, your finished card is A #1!

[Marge Waskiewicz]

I love this gorgeous card, especially how you did the background. Were the colors sponged in? My favorite is the dragon flies and how you used bleach. The color combination is so beautiful, thanks for sharing how it's done.
Knotting the ribbon is very different. Love it.

[Dawn]

Wow - your background is really pretty. I love that look. Just wondering - what do you do with all of your cards? Just got me thinking that this one would be hard to mail.

[kathy s]

what a great finish the tied ribbon gives such dimension and this card looked fine with the flowers but I also liked your second choice -Love your background paper too soooo effective.
