Ronda Palazzari designed this beautiful card with the Perfumery Stamp set. Don't you love the background with the vintage text? Ronda was kind enough to send us a tutorial on how she made the entire card.
Supplies:
- 2 coordinating pieces of Patterned Paper
- Cardstock
- Watercolor paper
- Grungepaper by Tim Holtz
- Antiquated Collection Perfumery Stamp Set
- Sentiment stamp set
- Maya Road Paper roses (or small flowers)
- Maya Road Cording (or baker’s twine)
- Permanent (waterproof) black ink
- Spray inks
- Watercolors Crayons or Markers
- 3-d adhesive
1. Stamp the larger perfume bottle from Antiquated Collection twice onto the grungepaper using permanent ink. Trim off the crown and color the bottle of one of the images using watercolor crayons, watercolors, or markers. Cut out the label from the other image and color it in.
2. Trim a piece of Watercolor paper to 3.5” x 4.75”. Using the Crab Apple Text stamp (from the Perfumery Set), stamp the text using a masking technique over the entire background in a random pattern. (Use a post-it or other thin piece of paper to mask off the larger title of the stamp). Spray with coordinating spray inks rubbing off some of the image to give it a worn, tattered look.
3. Add your first patterned paper (5.25” x 4”) to a 5.5” x 4.25” piece of cardstock. Then layer the watercolor paper on top of the patterned paper. Next add your 2.75” x 4” patterned on top of the watercolor paper. You can stitch around some of the papers.
4. Add the paper flowers to the top patterned paper and glue down the perfume bottle. Add some 3-d adhesive to the back of the label and add it to the perfume bottle to give it some dimension. Tie your cording into a bow and add to the perfume bottle. Add your sentiment to the upper right corner.
