Happy Mother's Day

 HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY

I made cards for the special day.

Here is how I created them.

To create the background I used this stencil in both 12x12 and 6x6 sizes.

On mixed media paper once the paint was dried, I sprayed the paper with water and drips of different shades of green and blue inks on the paper.  I then sprayed it with more water and watched it spread.

I let it air dry.

To create to the rose focal I used this stencil.

I used light modeling paste though the stencil onto a piece of mixed media paper.

I sprinkled on glass beads and gently pressed them into the paste.

Used acrylic inks and water on the modeling paste. 

I just dripped it on the modeling paste and watch it spread.

Its really fun to do.

When it dries it looks like this.

Depending on the look of the flower I add highlights of glitter or pearl paint to the flowers and leaves. I cut out each flower and the leaves.

With the addition of lace I put the cards together.

Here are a few samples of the cards.

The roses are different on each one.
