Beauty Comes From Within

Morning Friends and Crafters, Thank you for joining me today, it's great to have your company. I was lucky enough to be asked to make some samples with the Spectrum Noir Metallic Markers. So today I am sharing one of the samples I have made for the show along with a tutorial of what I have done. Please keep a look out  for the show on Sunday (30th September), it will be filled with lots of inspiration for you and ideas of how else they can be used.

You will Need:

Spectrum Noir Antique Elements Metallic Markers

Sheena Stamping Card

Centura Pearl Precious Metals Card

Black Card

Silver/White Centura Pearl Card Base

Sheena 'A Little Bit Scenic' ''Flying Colours''

Clear Overlay Sparkle Pen

Tacky Glue

Alcohol Markers

Memento Black Ink

Step 1: Start by adding your text, , I cut my card to size before I started, The size will depend on what you choose to write and how large you write it. I used Aged Copper here.

Step 2: Next I added some little flowers using the tip of the brush nib, pressed gently to the paper to form the petals. I used Aged Copper and Tarnished Silver.

Step 3: Next I added a black mat to my base card and secured with Tacky Glue. Then added a layer of precious metal to match the topper.

Step 4: Mount the topper on to the base with Collall Tacky Glue.

Step 5: Stamp a butterfly onto Sheena Stamping Card, I used Memento Black ink as I was using Alcohol Markers.

Step 6: Colour the image and cut out.

Step 7: Shape the wings, position and secure to the project, this time with Collall 3D Glue Gel for dimension.

Here is the finished card, with some Clear Overlay Sparkle Pen Added:

Thank you ever so much for joining me today, I do hope you have enjoyed the 'How To' along with the finished piece. I do hope you will stop by again very soon to see what else I have to share with you. For now Take care and Happy Crafting.xxx
