Bonjour !
Ravie d’être de retour pour partager une carte pour 2 autres semaines en tant qu’invitée créative chez Seize the Birthday. Pour cette quinzaine, il s’agit de faire une carte une “shaped card” (carte avec une forme autre que carrée ou rectangulaire).
Hello !
So thrilled to be back for sharing a card for another two weeks of my Surprise Party Guest role at Seize the Birthday. For this fortnight it’s all about Shaped Cards.
Et si vous n’êtes pas à l’aise avec ce thème, vous pouvez toujours jouer avec le thème Tout Va, du moment que c’est une carte d’anniversaire !
And if you’re not comfortable with this theme, you can still play with the Anything Goes theme, as long as it is a Birthday card !
Voici ma carte / Here is my card
Update : So glad to be one of the top 4 at AAA Birthday challenge.
Comme je voulais utiliser l’adorable tampon d’abeille d’Anita Jeram , je suis partie sur une forme hexagonale pour faire ma carte, comme une alvéole dans la ruche.
As I wanted to use the cute bee stamp from Anita Jeram, I went for an hexagon shaped card, as an hive cell.
J’ai tout d’abord délimiter les bords de la carte avec de la washi tape puis j’ai utilisé un pochoir “alvéoles” et des encres jaunes pour faire l’arrière plan.
I first delineated the edges of the card with washi tape then I used a “honeycomb” stencil and yellow inks to make the background.
J’ai ensuite tamponné les différentes fleurs et l’abeille sur du papier blanc avec de l’encre “no-line colouring”. Je les ai colorées avec des crayons de couleur puis découpées.
Then I stamped the different flowers and the bee on white card stock with no-line colouring ink. I coloured them with coloured pencils and I die cut them.
Voulant faire un jeu de mot avec le sentiment et n’ayant pas le tampon pour, j’ai dû écrire la partie “autiful” à la main. Ce que j’ai fait avant de coller toutes les fleurs, juste au cas où….
As I wanted to make a pun with the sentiment and not having the stamp for it, I had to write the “autiful” part. What I did before gluing all the flowers, just in case…
