Citrus Butterfly Card





HI LOVELY PEOPLE !!!

Welcome to my first blog using Lisa Horton's products. I am absolutely honoured to be part of such a wonderful team and work with these incredible products. I hope you like my citrus butterfly card and will have a go at making it xxx.




To  start,  scribble on a glass or blending mat with green sparkle pen or sparkle ink. Add a spray of water then dab into it a square 4" by 4" watercolour piece of card. Dab until you are happy with the design. Each one will be different. 

The more water the paler the green. Try and match with green card you have. Then do the same with a gold glitter pen, but only add a tiny amount. Dry off.


With peeled paint or any green distress ink, stamp in the loop at each side. Dry with heat gun.



Matt and layer onto black card and a coordinated green to match or as near to the shade as possible.


Die cut black and green card using Edgecutz butterfly die set.


Mount onto the stamped image to the upper left bending up the wings. 

Stamp chosen sentiment from Ticker phrases stamp set. 

Apply with the middle of sentiment raised for 3d effect. Use a quick drying glue and hold for a few seconds.


Mount onto a 6" bright white card. Add Pearl's  and lime green sisal  to embellish. 

Card finished.

I really hope you enjoyed this project and I look forward to sharing my next one with you.

Hugs

All About Heidi Hobson

- MEET THE TEAM -

Heidi Hobson 

Hi my name is Heidi Hobson. Myself my  Husband, Mum, Son and Cats moved to beautiful Brixham in Devon 4 years ago where my love of nautical crafting began. 
I started crafting 30 years ago at 18 with glass painting then moved onto cards and scrapbooking doing regular craft fairs. I have really got into the mixed media over the last 6years. I hunt down anything in charity shops to recycle and make pretty, grungy and now mostly nautical. 

I've also upcycled furniture and sold my pieces in gift shops and  most of my cards I send to Animal and Cancer charities to sell as I love my fur babies and will always help the Macmillan. 

My newest venture with Lisa Horton is my most exciting yet. My first design team which I am honoured to be part of and hopefully make Lisa proud xxx
