Mum's Christmas card with E brush Background

where has this year gone?
im late again making family cards
 i always feel better when i have got 
Mum's card finished Phew!
 so here it is


For my background i used  my Spectrum Noir BGR2
in the E-brush  all over the centura pearl card stock  with small swirls
then ran it through 
the A4 embossing Snow flake folder from as 
it's very subtle  i only wanted to tint the card stock as my wreath was all white 
 then set to  using  my dies cut my flowers and a paper punch for the fine branches

 those Die cut flowers had a coat of stick and stay then glittered 
 im hooked on that now ....
  as i was assembling the wreath it needed some thing extra to fill in the gaps
 so i raided my bean bag for the tiny  Polystyrene balls
 laid them onto some sticky card and  sprayed them with 
pearl diamond i used the 3d gel tacky glue and all purpose for my card
 but have to say
that bean bag  saved the day   lol
 added my bow and a few crystal gems   to finish off

 thanks for popping by today

Hi there  Crafters
  im sharing a few of my samples
using my 
Spectrum Noir and the E-brush
brought to us 
by 
  this card i wanted to show how you can mix Different colours that would never blend in pen form and 
i didn't create mud .......Big thumbs up
Texture paste Stencil from Barbara Grey Pebeo black gesso ,Pebeo gold gilding wax and my Spectrum Noir Pens
Big thumbs up  for altered art

Back ground with just 1 Spectrum Noir pen using a Mo manning digi image and a mask
 i adore the softness and the intense colour this was achieved by adding layers and adjusting the height of the E-brush another big thumbs up

Masks from copy paper and Die cuts

Spectrum Noir meets E-brush

 did you managed to catch 
 Leann  from Crafters Companion Friday and Saturday
over on create and craft
with the 
Spectrum noir and E-brush

 just loved the effect she shared on the show with the Glittered card and E-brush
so  i decided to play 
 i grabbed my Spectrum Noirs and plugged in my E-brush
using a spellbinder mitten die and Tim Holtz Stencil
 here's what i came up with



   i followed Leann's instructions
 sprayed  the die cut with 
Stick and Stay 
then sprinkled on some crystal glitter
  added the Tim Holtz  stencil and started to e- brush the mittens
with my Spectrum Noir Pen  PL3
 oh boy do they sparkle when the light hits them
 my stencil moved so some area's  on the mittens did blur a-little
 but hey i had fun playing 
it's no big deal for me i can live with a few blurred edges in my life lol


   also used the 
Crafters Companion 
Snow flake  A4 Embossing folder for my matting layer
with a stamped sentiment e-brushed edges with PL3
to tie everything together

  im really pleased with the effect
 the E-brush opens up a whole new side to my crafting Stash 
 it's a fabulous  piece of equipment  from Craftwell
 very easy to use
i enjoyed trying something new 
 thanks for popping by 
 Hugs
