Bonjour !
Il me fallait une carte d’anniversaire masculine et en m’inspirant de plusieurs défis (thème, couleur, technique…) j’ai fini par faire cette carte…
Hello !
I needed a masculine birthday card and and inspired by several challenges (theme, colour, technique…) I ended up making this card …
À l’aide de masques, sur une feuille blanche j’ai tamponné ces trois pots de succulentes avec une encre rose très pâle. Je les ai coloré avec mes nouveaux crayons de couleur, histoire de m’entraîner un peu à la technique du “no-line colouring”. Puis je les ai découpés à la main.
On a scrap of white card stock, I stamped these three succulents pots with a very soft pink ink. I coloured them with my new colour pencils, so that I could train a bit with the no-line colouring technique. Then I fussy cut them.
Sur une double carte blanche, j’ai fait le fond avec un pochoir et de l’encre Distress. J’ai collé les plantes avec de la mousse adhésive. Et pour finir, j’ai collé le sentiment avec de la mousse adhésive.
On a double white card, I made the background with a stencil and Distress ink. I foam mounted the succulents. To finish, I also foam mounted the sentiment.
Et voilà ! On peut très bien offrir des plantes à un homme, n’est-ce pas ?
Et Voilà ! Plants can be offered to a man, can’t they ?

Certainly plants may be giving to a man, especially succulents. Your coloring technique is beautiful and your use of the stencil to create a dynamic background is perfect. I also like te sentiment on the black background. I’m so glad you were inspired to join us at Hand Stamped Sentiments.

The soft background stencilling is gorgeous, Izzy … and how fantastic are those succulents … the blending of your pencil colouring is brilliant, especially on those leaves … I went in close to take a better look! Hugs, Anita 🙂
