Hand Painted Mothers Day Card

I have not made any Glass Painted cards for a few weeks now and plan to make some more soon once I have some new designs drawn out and filled in. So, In the meantime (being that I want to Blog 3x a week)I want to share some previous handcrafted cards of mine I have made recently with the transparent glass paint.

This card below is what I made for my Mum for Mothers day. It it not the proper Easel Card but, something similar using a double folded 14x14cm card and using all sides of the card. I have used a very basic and simple outline of a Butterfly here and embellished on top of layers of the same patterned paper and embossed a silver flourish under the butterfly for interest, using a stamp and heat gun. The finished card went into a box I folded up and decorated to finish!

My husband & I are celebrating our 3rd Wedding Anniversary and this is the card I made for my One True Love for our special day.

I drew and glass painted two hearts, small and large and decoupaged it to give dimension! I adhered it to layers of silver and white flourish shimmer paper and used a blue paper bordering the rectangle of flourish paper for colour balance. I finished off with stitching on sequins and beads (transparent sequins I used in our wedding stationary) and then added on a separate smaller rectangle for the message "On Our 3rd Wedding Anniversary". I then took a friends idea of  adhering paper inside the card with a message on top.

Thanks for looking and hope you like it!

This is a card that I made for a swap where I have used the Glass paints and Relief paint to make the Heart and have then adhered it onto patterned striped paper and used embellishments to finish it off and adhered to black card to allow the glass painted topper to stand out!

First time with Glass Paints 

I have never been one for working with Glass Paints but, I thought I would give it a go but, use it for my cardmaking rather than on glass itself! I think after doing these experiments though I might just want to push my boundaries and further my experimenting onto glass.

These experiments are just my first samples I have done over the last few days. This is a glass paint high in intensity of its colour. Rich and vibrant and beautiful to work with. Continue reading →
