... gibt es von mir nochmal ein Weihnachtskärtchen samt Anleitung. Ich packe ja eher selten soooo viel Verzierungen auf meine Werke. Aber diesmal hat es mich einfach gepackt!
I have one more Christmas card to share today. I also have a step by step instruction when you scroll down. Normally I don't add so many bulky embellishments, but I couldn't stop this time.
Hier hab ich eine Schritt für Schritt Anleitung für Euch:
Here are the step by step instructions:
Wir beginnen mit den Blumen. Ich nehme ungern fertige Blumen. Das ist mir irgendwie zu "wenig" basteln. Ich mache sie lieber selbst. Für diese hab ich erstmal gut strukturiertes Aquarellpapier mit dem Gelato in Cherry Red bemalt und anschließend kräftig mit Wasservermalt.
Let's start with the flowers. I don't like to use "instant" flowers. I love to create my own. That is what crafting means to me. It's not only decorating with ready-made embellishments. Pick some textured watercolor paper and color it with the Cherry Red Gelato.
Nach dem Trocknen kamen mit Acrylsprays noch einige Schattierungen in braun dazu und einige intensievere Farbspritzer. Jetzt müssen die Blumen nur noch ausgestanzt und zusammen geklebt werden.
After this dried I use acrylic sprays to add some shadows and more intense colors. Cut the flowers and build them together. I love to use stylus tools to give the flowers a natural shape.
Jetzt ist unser Kartenhintergrund an der Reihe. Wir starten mit Aquarellpapier, welches mit Gesso grundiert wird. Anschließend kommt etwas Farbe mit Hilfe der Gelatos (Green Tea und Cotton Candy) hinzu.
It's time to start with the background. I use watercolor paper that I've primed with gesso. I add color with the Gelatos (Green Tea and Cotton Candy).
Für etwas mehr Textur im Hintergrund stempel ich die Music Notes von Rubber Dance mit StazOn Jet Black.
I add some texture with the Music Notes from Rubber Dance and StazOn Jet Black ink.
Noch einige mehr Details liefert VersaMark zusammen mit silber metallic PanPastels. Alternativ kann man da natürlich auch Perfect Pearls verwenden. Der Stempel ist der Grunge Swirs von Rubber Dance.
I like some shimmery interest, so I used silver metallic PanPastels together with VersaMark ink and the Grunge Swirls from Rubber Dance. Instead of the PanPastels you can use Perfect Pearls, too.
Anschließend verwende ich die Dutch Doobadoo Eiskristall Schablone und die Dutch Doobadoo Sturkturpaste.
For some dimension I use the Dutch Doobadoo snowflake stencil together with their Structure Paste.
Mit einigen Stempelabdrücken kommen noch ein paar mehr Details hinzu.
Some more stamped images for details:
Mit rotem Acrylspray kommt noch etwas Farbe hinzu.
I add color with a red acrylic spary.
Zum Schluss wird noch verziert! Dazu stanze ich die Blumenranke von Noor! Design und gebe goldene Strukturpaste drauf.
Finally it's time to add the embellishments. I cut the flowers from Noor! Design and add some gold texture paste.
Das MDF Fenster von Dutch Doobadoo bestreiche ich mit Gesso.
The wooden window is covered with gesso.
Sämtliche Verzierungen klebe ich mit Heißkleber auf die Karte. Für etwas mehr Pepp und um die knalligen Farben etwas zu dämpfen sprenkel ich fleißig verdünnten Gesso über mein Werk.
All of my embellishments were adhered with hot glue. To get a shabby look I sprinkled a lot gesso mixed with water on top.
Die kleinen Zapfen sind übrigens nicht aus dem Dekogeschäft, sonder von einer Erle gezupft! Die kleinen Dinger sind perfekt!
The lovely little cones a not from a craft store. I picked them out side from an alder tree. Perfect for crafting!
So. Das war dann wahrscheinlich meine letzte Weihnachtskarte für dieses Jahr. Vielleicht habt Ihr noch Zeit zum nachbasteln. Ich wünsche Euch allen ein schönes Fest und ein gesundes neues Jahr! Susanne.
Bis heute Abend habt Ihr noch Zeit an meinem Blog Giveaway teilzunehmen! Also schaut schnell rein!
I think this was my last Christmas card for this year. I wish you Happy Holidays, Susanne. You can enter my Blog Giveaway until today! So don't miss it!
