Mama so very grateful for you

• I started by stamping the flowers and leaves from Spring Flowers stamp set on cold press Arches watercolour paper using Versafine Onix Black ink.
• Then,  I applied colours using Schmincke watercolour paints.
• Using my Tim Holtz Snips I fussy cut the images.

• I  die cut the large word ( MAMA) out of white and black cardstock and I glued the black one over the white one.
• I then die cut a piece of Tonic watercolor paper for the background using Wonky Rectangles dies.
• Next,  I arranged the images and the large die cut word over the background panel and I glued everything using Nuvo Deluxe adhesive.
• Then,  I stamped the sentiment 'So very grateful for you" from Simple Sentiments stamp set, using Versafine Black Onix Ink.
•  I adhered the panel watercolor panel onto a piece of kraft paper using double-sided tape and I  stick this on a card base also using double-sided tape.
• I embellished with sequins.

Mama you are numero uno

Mama I love you so very much 

• I  first stamped the images on Arches Cold Press watercolour paper using Versafine Black Onix ink and I also did a little bit of masking.
• I  applied colour using Schmincke watercolour paints.
• I also die cut the large word out of kraft cardstock and put aside.
• Then, I die cut the watercolour panel using the large Mama die.
• Using double-sided tape I adhered the watercolor panel over a piece of kraft cardstock.
•  I then inlaid the Outline of the word MAMA  I die cut out of kraft cardstock and I  glued the letters I die cut our of the watercolour panel.
 also used a pre-printed sentiment: " I love you so very much" from Sentiments Stripes Reverse Love.
• I sued a Craft Perfect A2 Card Blank. These are really premium quality card bases and envelopes.

Hold Fast in this storm mama, you are strong

 I also wanted to do something totally different.  

So for this card, I used some of the stamps from Your Light stamp set together with Outline Mama wafer die.

You can see more of "Your Light Stamp set" in the video here!

Hard to see in pictures but defo my latest great discoveries. I also used  "Peacock Plume" Nuvo Sparkle Spray on Tonic Watercolor paper. 

This new color of Nuvo Sparkle spray is part of the next new Nuvo trend called White Wonderland (available from June).

I listed below some sparkle sprays available on the Simon Says Stamps that could be interesting for you.

You can place the spray far away from the paper to create speckles or close to the paper to totally cover its surface to create the most spectacular metallic texture.  

Once you apply the spray you can seal it using Gesso or  Distress Glaze.

It is simply beautiful for die-cut words. I'll get a video done on this as soon as I get more colors.
