Mardi Gras

Today is Mardi Gras,

fun and party

and CARNAVAL!

No idea what it is?

Have a look HERE.

 

And you know me,

have to make a card for

this celebration:

 

For this card I used background paper

found on the Create with TLC blog

as well as the sentiment.

I colored the background paper with pencil.

 

For the mask I found a template online:

and printed this on purple paper.hen i took my

Michael Strong paisley background stamp

and versamark ink to stamp over the cut out mask.

Added some gold embossing powder and

made some holes at the end for the ribbon.

Hope you all have a fun day

with whatever you are doing or celebrating!

 

Have a creative day!

 

 

 

 

Mardis Gras

Vandaag is het Mardis Gras, een soor carnaval. Wil je er meer over weten, kijk dan even HIER.
Ik heb er een kaartje voor gemaakt met stempels van Michael Strong (de dragonfly en de bladeren) , papier van Club Scrap en de tekst is met de computer gedaan.
Voor de veren heb ik eerst papier bewerkt in de Antiqued Glimmers techniek van de nieuwsbrief van Dec'09/Jan'10 van de Technique Junkies. Daarna heb ik met het blad gestempeld en geembossed met goud. Het masker is bestempeld en wit geembossed en daarna met distress inkt direct op het papier gewerkt. Het masker patroon heb ik hieronder bijgevoegd. Today is Mardi Gras, a kind of carnaval. Would you like to know more about it, click HERE. I made this card with stamps of Michael Strong (dragonfly and leaves), paper of Club Scrap and sentiment done with the computer. For the feathers I used the Antiqued Glimers technique on the paper first (technique of Technique Junkies Newsletter Dec '09/Jan '10) before I stamped and embossed with gold. The mask is stamped and embossed with white and then I used distress ink direct to paper. I added the mask pattern for you below.
