Hello Lovely Crafters....
This weeks' post is a combination of Creative Expressions Fairy Village Collection and Spellbinders Build A Fall Bird House Die Set, along with Nova's Watercolour Paint Set.
So let’s get started....
Step 1
To begin... create a background using the Nova's Watercolour Paint Set.
✅ TIP - Don’t be afraid to mix up the colours if they are darker than you would like!
I usually brush water across the watercolour card before painting, so that it’s lighter :-)
📝 NOTE - Make sure you include a pebble path too.
▪️The size for this watercolour card is 18½ cm x 15cm
When dry cut down an 8x8" card blank to 19½ cm x 16cm and mat it onto some green card.
Step 2
Cut out your Build A Fall Bird House and the Magical Door together with the other elements and then four of the Floral Branches with the blossoms and leaves.
📝 NOTE - These are all in white card, except for the Magic Door which I cut from Kraft card.
Step 3
Using the Nova paint palette, paint all of the elements up in colours of your choice!
I then cut my bird house in half (as you can see 📸) and stuck a piece off the bottom of another Magical Door across the bottom.
Then when they are all done and dry, start building up the card as seen 📸
I used foam pads to adhere the Magical Door, post box, toadstools and the bird house. I also attached a piece of string to the bird house to hang it on a branch.
It’s a very simple lay out, but I think it looks quite sweet....
The little birdies came from my stash!
Step 4
Add a sentiment....
I chose "Hello Spring" from Creative Expressions Wordies Sheets.
Then to finish I added little yellow pearls that I coloured with an alcohol pen in the blossom centres.
I love how adaptable the bird house die is just simply cutting it in half and it’s a totally different house .
Give it a try.... these themed cards are so much fun to make and versatile for different occasions!
Don't forget, I'd love to see your ideas so be sure to share with us on our Facebook Group - Create With Craftmania And Jamie Rodgers.
Have a great week
Take care
