This was inspired by an ornament I saw online where they had the picture under a layer of glaze. These are some of the new stamps from Hero Arts. I went out yesterday and picked up some of the new sets. The rose comes with two beautiful sketched birds. The butterfly is part of a clear set called Antique Engravings and it has other butterflies, dragonfly and shells.After I applied the yellow dye ink background, I wish I had chosen another color but once it was down I had to keep going.
The main panel was stamped in memento and the flowers were colored with my Copics. I then stamped the butterflies and dragonflies and used my watercolor pencils to color them. The background is sponged with yellow dye ink and around the edges with brown dye ink.
I than stamped the entire image with versamark watermark ink and heat embossed with clear embossing powder. I repeated that process 4 times and then cracked it. I then applied a layer of brown dye ink and wiped up the excess.
The rest is just piecing the background together.
Thanks for stopping by...

Suzanne, stunning is an understatement... just amazing card. Thanks for you lovely comment on my blog. (Santa was arriving to the yacht club so I suppose it is only fitting he arrives by boat! and gets a cannon salute!) Don't you just love the questions children ask! Looking forward to seeing more creations with the new stamp sets. Enjoy the holidays.
ReplyDeleteThis is honestly one of the very few cards I have seen using the Cracked Glass technique that I have liked. Yours of course is just stunning!
