Stitching on Silhouette Stamped Images

 

Hello! Welcome back to my blog. Thank you for your patience. This is the edited version of my previous post. This card was created with several blog challenges in mind. These blog challenges are linked below.

I started off by die cutting a circle using the largest circle die from the My Favorite Things Wonky Stitched Circle die set. The paper I am using is Strathmore Bristol paper. I cut this circle in half. I blended ink on these half circles using Tim Holtz Distress inks. The colors I used are Wild Honey and Carved Pumpkin. I flicked some water to these half circles, and picked these water droplets with a dry paper towel. The color inspiration is from the Simon Says Stamp IG June Challenge. The layout is from the latest MFT Sketch Challenge. 

I stamped the silhoutte flowers on these half circles. The Misti Stamping Tool was very useful in this process. After I stamped the flower on one of the half-circles, I simply replace this stamped half circle with the other half circle & re-stamped the image. If I did not get a clean stamped impression, I can re-stamp the flower with the help of this tool. The stamp I am using came from an April 2021 Hero Arts My Monthly Hero Kit. The ink I used for stamping is Versafine Onyx Black ink.

I poked holes on the stamped flowers and leaves. I added some stitching detials on these stamped images using the same colors as the color inspiration reversing it, stitching yellow on the orange background, and vice versa. I used a DMC metallic floss for the stems and leaves. 

I created the panel using a 4 1/4" x 5 1/2" Strathmore Bristol paper. I blended Tim Holtz Distress Ink in Peacock Feathers on this panel. I flicked water droplets on this panel and picked the water droplets with a dry paper towel.

Using the Misti Stamping Tool again, I positioned this blue blended panel on the Misti, and also temporarily positioned the half circles so that I will get an idea where to stamp the sentiment. I prepped the area with an anti-static powder tool. I stamped the sentiment, also from the same stamp set, using Versafine Onxy Black ink. I poured clear embossing powder to it, and heat set it.


I stamped flowers on each side of the sentiment using the same ink. I heat set this to dry. I poked holes on these flowers and added stitching to it, just like what I did on the half circles.

I adhered the half circles to the blue blended panel with foam adhesive. I adhered this to a top folding A2 note card.

Thank you for visiting my blog. Have a blessed, brilliant and creative day!
