Spring is the theme for the new Time4Scrap challenge starting today. We have three sponsors for this challenge: Beccy's Place, The East Wind, and Art by Mirian.
I've chosen Aurora, Floral Kiss for my project and colored her with Copic markers. I've also added various Spica glitter pens to her hair and several of the flowers, but it didn't photograph well (at all).
The background is one of the new Die-Versions dies called Morocco Background. These dies cut beautifully, but I wanted some of the negative pieces to remain in the frame. So instead of painstakingly replacing some of the pieces, I adhered a piece of sticker paper onto the back of the die after I ran it through my die cutting machine. I had tilted it slightly to let most of the negative pieces to fall out naturally, so what was left stuck to the sticker paper. Then I covered the entire die cut with Spirited Green glitter from Sparkle N Sprinkle.
The border is also a Die-Versions die (Butterfly Garden) that was die cut from a piece of white cardstock and quickly colored with Copic markers. To add the sentiment, I inked up a Stampendous clear stamp with Momento Tuxedo Black ink, added Clear embossing powder to it, and heat set it for an added bit of shimmer.
You have two weeks to share your Spring project with us at the Time4Scrap Challenge Blog. I can't wait to see what you create.
