It is absolutely 100% handmade, though not archive quality…
Some closeups:

The centerpiece is a newly wed couple. I was inspired by Ty Wilson’s posters, and used tiny paper stripes to make an alike looking picture – almost quilling. And some pencil strokes to color the pic. The bride’s belt is made of satin ribbon. For the bouquet I used kids’ clay called ‘i-clay’, and a feather (from the pillow) colored with ink.


With this card I'm entering a few challenges:
-A pocket full of posies challenge - Floral fantasy; roses embossed on vellum, rose pricked on the ivory background, roses in bride's bouquet. (19/09)
Скрапстудия Sun House - задание 4, "Миллион, миллион, миллион алых роз". Роз, правда, не миллион, и они не алые, но розы ведь! =) (19/09)
-Pear Tree Designs - Challenge 17, pink! Pink of all shades is present =) (19/09)
-Cutie Sunday - Pretty in pink; well, pink is pink =) Or rose. Or magenta =) (19/09)
-Stampin' Susters in Christ - real or faux stitching. I used real stitching with white thread on the pink frame. (18/09)
ScratFIT - Go Green! In this card I did not use any special scrap stuff. The frame is created with the help of foam sealants, covered with magenta paper. The "beads" on the lady's corset are actually millet (yes, edible thing!) covered with nail polish. Charms are hand made out of recycled wire, filled with the same nail polish. Greenery in bride's bouquet is a colored feather I got from my pillow. And the whole centerpiece is surrounded with rose-petals frame done in the technique of tissue stippling. To achieve that colorful irregular effect I had to color a plain white facial tissue with beetroot juice - couldn't think of anything greener %) (30/09)
-Cupcakes inspiration - Challenge 76, be inspired by a wedding picture:

Pink satin ribbon, lots of fluff, white dress and wedding theme - I suppose I'm in =) (19/09)
All the patterns I used (stitching, pricking, embossing, quilling) I made myself =)
Wow! This is so pretty! The quilling is so neat... unbelievable!!What a great card...treat to the eyes!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Karuna, for the compliments =)
ReplyDeleteОчень красиво! Разглядывала жениха и невесту, так и не поняла - это квиллинг или нет?
ReplyDeleteСпасибо, Ольгусенок =)
ReplyDeleteА вот я сама не знаю, квиллинг или нет =) Вроде квиллинг обязывает закручивать завитки, а тут завиток всего один, а остальное - просто изогнутые полосочки, приклеенные торцом. Я бы сказала "одиночный квиллинг" %)
Wow look at that elaborate quilling, my first time visiting your site and that raccon at the top is stunning. I'm sure the card was greatly appreciated. Thanks for coming alongside Stampin' Sisters in Christ this week! Hope to see you again.

Oh my gosh! This if fabulous! Your 3-dimensional embellishments are fantastic! I love the quilling, clay flowers, and beading! Wow! Thanks for joining us at Cupcake Inspirations! :)
ReplyDeleteSo pretty and unique. Love the feel of the paper - it did remind me of quilling. Thanks for joining the Cupcake Inspiration Challenge.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful card! I've tried quilling, but am not very good at it (probably too impatient!). You are fantastic! Great take on the photo inspiration, as well! And of course, your stitching is perfect! Thank you for joining us this week at Stampin' Sisters in Christ! Hope to see you back again next week!

Смотрю, как у тебя квиллинг здорово получается, и боюсь попробовать....повышиваю я пока крестиком...
Спасибо =)
ReplyDeleteНу тут от квиллинга одно название, я все еще не решаюсь его полноценно квиллингом назвать %)
У тебя же мама отлично крутит! Так что не бойся, у тебя тоже получится! ;)
