Dragons on a rainbow cloud – Instagram LIVE

Hey guys,
I knew that i wouldn’t be able to do a YouTube live this Friday as it’s Piper’s birthday, so figured I would do one tonight…..turns out my computer had a different idea. When I turned it on, it automatically started an update, and then crashed right in the middle of it.

Well…. I couldn’t go back on my word, so instead of a YouTube live, Craig and I quickly set up the phone so we can do an Instagram LIVE. So it would be much lower picture and sound quality, but at least it was something. The real bummer is that once its gone, its pretty much gone. Sorry for those who didn’t catch it Live, i know lots of you like to watch the videos on replay.

Anyway, here’s my card. I wanted to play with watercolours, and i wanted a soft rainbow feel. I reached for my dragon stamps from MFT. Cuteness!

These cuties live up in the sky, so they are sitting amidst a floor of fluffy clouds. I embossed one panel with a swiss dots embossing folder to add some texture. I wanted to keep the colours soft, so the loose watercolour technique worked well. It does mean that some of the colour bled outside the lines, but i still think its cute.

I added a palace on a cloud from the Mama Elephant Unicorns and Rainbows set, i thought it worked well with my scene.

This card is for Piper’s best friend Sophia who turns 7 next week. Piper thinks she is going to LOVE it!

To finish up, I embossed the greeting with liquid platinum embossing powder from ranger and added some nuvo jewl drops. Turns out that i don’t have any green or blues…. tut tut! I think I may have to fix that! 🙂

Thanks for taking a look, and i hope to have the computer back to life for this Friday’s Come Craft With Me LIVE session. Keep an eye on Instagram, if there are any changes I will give a shout out.

see you then, until next time HAPPY CRAFTING
