ReplyDeleteOh it's wonderful! It always intrigues me how you do these...
ReplyDeleteYou always do the greatest techniques and I like this ink lifting. A sweet bird stamp and the mandala is lovely.
ReplyDeleteAwesome job with the bleach and gouache paint, Christine! The bird and cherry blossoms are so vibrant! And I love the subtle lifting with the stencil and tone on tone stamping! An altogether lovely card, my friend!
ReplyDeleteLove this - another stamp I might have to borrow!!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous bird image and background, Christine. TFS all the details over at Magenta. Hugs..Nancy
ReplyDeleteBeautiful card with fabulous bleaching and blending. Love the colours.
ReplyDeleteWonderful work Christine. I'm wondering if the bleaching is necessary with the gouache paints?? I have not worked with them, except for the one time at your place. I love your background with the baby wipe through stencil and your mandela stamped in tone-on-tone. Really beautiful card! xx
ReplyDeleteSweet bird and flowers. So lovely! I am off to check out how you did it! Hugz
ReplyDeleteI love anything with birds and this is such a pretty stamp! The mandala and diamonds make a beautiful background the way you've used them. I swear sometime I would like to set a week or so aside to do nothing but play with backgrounds.
ReplyDeleteWhat a fabulous scene you created using a few different techniques, Christine! Great job of bleaching and lifting ink colors using baby wipes! Your chickadee is so sweet, the cherry blossoms are pretty, and the ink blended background is gorgeous! I especially love the combination of stecniling and stamping at the bottom part.

Fantastic technique Christine bleaching and then colouring with gouache paints, and love the sweet bird and cherry blossom, so so pretty! x
ReplyDeleteWonderful feelings accompany me when I look at this card. I see a bird sitting on a branch growing above the water. And the beautiful mandala is reflected in the water ... Thank you for a moment of relaxation, when I admired your card
