Painting the Rosed Red


They're painting the roses red at the ALTERED ALICE this month so paint has to be used somewhere on projects. The paint I've used is red Pergamano Pintura.
I wasn't sure what I was going to do until I saw that one of the Dover Publications freebies last week was a page from a children's Alice colouring and puzzle book, the maze was just what I wanted so I made this easel card.
I coloured the maze with Promarkers and used the paint on the roses and card men then attached it to the easel card that I'd covered with spotty paper. I made the roses with torn red paper that had a white core so I  used the paint to get rid of this but left a little bit of the white showing. I attached some die cut leaves and the roses to the card. The rose bottom right has been made with an Artistic Stamper stamp that I decided to leave white. I rounded the corners of some small playing cards then attached them to the card base, the last thing that I did was to paint some splats on the cards.
For the leaves I used Marianne Design and Tim Holtz Sizzix Alterations dies.
Here is a close up of the white flower.

The Juggler

I was pleased with the way this card turned out. I wasn't sure if the beads on the wire would work and hope that the ends of the wire stays stuck in between the card.
The stamps are by Character Construction and I coloured the images with Promarkers. I wanted the beads to move from hand to hand so I threaded them on to some wire and stuck the ends of the wire to the arms. The background paper is a Graphicus Guild paper. I embellished the card with black pom poms, some flowers and gems.

Easter Card

I used a Martha Stewart punch to edge a piece of green card and attached the stamped image to it. The stamp I used is by Flower Soft and I coloured the image with Promarkers.

Easel Card

It was my son's 22nd birthday this week and this is the card I made for him.
The stamps I've used are Flippin' Stamps by La Pashe for the fisherman, the sentiment is by After Midnight and the border is by Elusive Images. I coloured the image with Promarkers, the more I use these pens the more I love them.
