Step by Step by Katarina Eliasson
Hi everyone!
I have made a new picture tutorial for you and I hope you like it.
Let’s get started!
Step 1.
Start with a white A5 Multifarious card. Stamp Faelorn Rest (LAV1043) as shown in the picture in Versafine Clair Fallen Leaves.
Step 2.
For the Party umbrella use Fairy Toadstool and Versafine Clair Portobello. Mask the top of the stump because the mushroom stem need to be shorter.
Step 3.
Stamp Minnie and Moo (LAV727) and Tilly and Tango (LAV726) dancing on the stump. Stamp in Versafine Clair Morning Mist. Basil in the set Basil and Bibi (LAV732) is going to hold a sign. Mask the lantern on the stamp before inking and ink in Versafine Clair Morning Mist. Remove the masking and stamp Basil on one of the steps as shown.
Step 4.
Stamp the Welcome sign (LAV1049) by Basil’s hand in Versafine Clair Fallen Leaves.
Step 5.
Now it’s time to make the sky using a Blending Brush. Use a piece of torn paper to mark where the sky ends and the grass will begin. Start around the Mice with Elements Ink Sundance. Add Elements Ink Paprika around the yellow and then Elements Ink Rusett Orange around the Paprika. Finish with Elements Ink Mulberry, working from the edges towards the orange. Let the colors blend into each other. Spray some water and wait a little while until you see the water react with the ink. Use a heating tool to dry or press down with a paper towel.
Step 6.
Start with Elements Ink Pine nearest the sky. Use the other part of the torn paper for masking. Add some parts with Elements Ink Pine and Lime Punch randomly.
Step 7.
Stamp Moonbark (LAV1045) two times as shown in the picture in Versafine Clair Fallen Leaves.
Step 8.
Stamp the Bench (LAV937) in Versafine Portobello in front of the trees. Don’t worry about the trees showing through. You will cover that with white Posca before coloring. Stamp the Fairy Ladder in Versafine Clair Morning Mist beside the stump.
Step 9.
Stamp four lanterns in the trees from the stamp set Small Lanterns (LAV728) using Versafine Clair Nocturne.
Step 10.
For the leaves use the leaf in the set Wild Foliage (LAV980) and stamp first and second generation in Versafine Clair Shady Lane.
Step 11.
Stamp Bibi (LAV732) on the bench in Versafine Clair Morning Mist. Colour the stump, mushroom stem, trees and bench in shades of brown using watercolour pencils. Shades of blue on the mushroom hat and black and grey on the mice. Use a white Posca on the mice and other highlights.
Step 12.
From now on use a piece of paper to mask when stamping the flowers and greenery. Use Versafine Clair Chianti and Faedew (LAV1042) and stamp beside the stump. Then stamp Bluebells (LAV002) still using Chianti. Stamp Orchard Grass (LAV672) in Versafine Clair Shady Lane in first and second generation. Look at the picture for placement.
Colour the mushrooms using watercolour pencils in blue shades, green and brown on the grass. Use pink Posca on the flowers and yellow on the lanterns.
Step 13.
Stamp Woodland Fern LAV729 in Versafine Clair Shady Lane on the lower part of the card. Use the same ink to darken the edges. Use the dragonfly in the set Fairy Bugs (LAV471) and stamp in Versafine Clair Morning Mist.
And lastly put some yellow Pan Pastel around the lanterns.
Step 14.
Mount the card on cardstock of your own choice. The card is finally finished. I hope you liked my picture tutorial and will give it a go.
Happy crafting!
Big hugs from Katarina ❤️
