I love it when I see card sets that use similar materials to produce different but cohesive looks so I decided to attempt it for my creations for Blue Fern Studios this month. Love that we got to play with some 7 Dots Studio patterned papers in a product swap. :)
I started with a Prima mask, two Tattered Angels glimmermists [I like to use my own bottles for mists so that they maximize my storage area.] and created three looks. The first is from misting directly on the watercolour paper, the second is from pressing another sheet of paper to absorb the residual mists left on the mask and the third is by doing it again.
For this card, I misted the chipboard, covered the top of the frame with lace and added some glass bit gel for the rest of the frame. A torn strip of patterned paper was added to the base of the frame.
The base of the card was covered with a little lace. The bloom was misted. Then I added some SRM stickers.
For this card, I added lace to the base of the card, covered the frame with glass bead gel, then "painted" with the mist.
The paper bloom was misted again and added to the frame with some pearls and a bling butterfly.
For this card, I added patterned paper and lace to the base.
So, what do you think?
P/s: Happy weekend my friends! :)
