Well 'Bold Angel' is back in charge on Day 3 of "Pamellia's Schizophrenic Week of Mojo"!! This is my last week as a guest designer over at Just Us Girls. It's been a fun month and I am so thankful to the team for inviting me join in with them! For my last challenge with them, it's "PHOTO WEEK" and you can find the inspiration photo just below my card. I do hope you join in the fun!
I have made a video for this card, which you can find further down the page. And by popular request, I have also finally did a flower tutorial video as well.
I have made a video for this card, which you can find further down the page. And by popular request, I have also finally did a flower tutorial video as well.
I was most inspired by the little calendar page, so I decided to make a card to celebrate Leap Year / Leap Day. I was also inspired by the bright green and even the flourishes in the background. The touches of purple were just for me! tee hee
Alright, double whammy today - with not one, but two videos for your viewing pleasure! lol. I hope you enjoy both the card tutorial and the flower tutorial! Thanks for your support everyone and keep the requests coming, I promise to get around to everything eventually!
UPDATE
My card won an award in the following wonderful challenges

One of my favourite things to take photos of is how the street lamps cast amazing colours when mixed with the colours in the sunset. It's just so beautiful and even looks fake sometime to see a big orange or green branch sticking out over the footpath.
This shot was so much prettier in real life. The tunnel was green, the footpath on the other side was bright blue from the sky, and the sky on the horizon was pink from the sunset.
I had a new visitor the other day. He is really tiny and very skittish. He must be brand new to the world because you can see he still has some baby fur on his head and back. I've never seen one quite this colour before. He reminds me of a milk chocolate bar, so I have named him Chocolate Charlie. I do hope to see him again soon.
That's it for today. Thank you for stopping in and for all the amazing comments. I read and appreciate every single one! If you have any questions, please let me know.
Beautiful creation and great photos. Have a fun weekend, hugs Valerie

ReplyDeletedeleted my question meant to ask if a candle flame would work as well.xx
ReplyDeleteI think a candle would work just fine Annie. It may be easier to pass the petal through the flame of the candle, leaving the candle stationery, instead of passing the candle under the petal...that way the wax isn't dripping all over the place. hugs :)
DeleteThis is truly awesome Pamellia. I've watched both of your inspiring video's.
ReplyDeleteYou are a true artist, thank you so much for sharing. Hugs Veerle
A gorgeous card Pamellia! A fab design and colours and the micro beads have a lovely effect. Thanks for the video. Your photo's look great too! Have a lovely weekend. hugs, Marlies

ReplyDeleteAnd those flowers! I can't believe all the work you put into them! They are so lovely.....but don't you burn the bejeebers out of your fingers when you make them?!?

Hi Pamellia
ReplyDeleteDelicious colour combo on this divine card and the florals are amazing.
Terrific video. As I said last time, had fun with a heat tool but I'll have the fire brigade on standby with a lighter lol! Mind you, I manage to seal the ends of my bows with a lighter without burning the house down yet!
Welcome to the brood Chocolate Charlie.
Ang x
Holly Smokers Pamellia!!! FABULOUS...love the colours and all your gorgeous detail!!!! You NEVER cease to AMAZE me my SO VERY TALENTED friend!

ReplyDeleteTake care,
Beth
An absolutely stunner of a card, wonderful colours, great design and those flowers are incredible - two great videos too.

WOW WOW and then some! Gorgeous card, and such a great way to combine those bold colors!!! I checked out the videos, gave them thumbs up :) and will definitely try to make those flowers!!! Need some variety and don't like to buy flowers.
ReplyDeleteHave a great day!
Hugs

Flabbergasted!!! Absolutely totly bowled over with what you have shared today! Geez Jimmney and a cricket are these fantabulous! I actually saw the video (with no problems this time) first and those flowers are freakin brilliant! How lovely and full they look, love the added microbeads! Your card makes me happy and all smiles as my friend was born on Leap Year and I had to show this to her. Gorgeous and genius! Bubbles, You are a force to be reckoned with dearie, thank you so very much for inspiring me and for being so amazeballs! Hugz to you muffin! ~Doc
ReplyDeleteGiggling... I always enjoy the "Tah-Dah!" At the end!! So glad the bold angel chose these spring colors and taught me to use hot glue in MS molds! Want to try that for sure. Did you find the molds near the MS punches at Michaels? I also did not realize the carried the assorted colors of beadies! So beautiful, Pamellia. Thanks for the tutorials and videos. XO
ReplyDeleteHi Donna. Unfortunately those molds aren't available at Michaels any more, for some reason they stopped carrying the whole line. The microbeads are from two different collections, one Martha Stewart and one Recollections. I did buy those at Michaels quite a while ago. Thanks for your sweet comments Donna. hugs :)
DeleteThis card just looks like Spring! The videos are great, thank you. I, too, like the "ta dah" at the end. Also, am wondering how you keep from burning your fingers and going "Ow! Ow! Ow!" when attaching the petals with the glue gun. A beautiful card and flowers!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous, Gorgeous, GORGEOUS colors and amazing flowers! I love that bold Twisted Citron background and those microbeads are just the perfect touch! I can't wait to see the videos! I'm still behind on these with so little time to spend in front of the computer these days. But that is for me to look forward to! I do like your bold angel side! Hugs!
ReplyDeletePamellia, you are a crafty genius! This is spectacular! The bold colors are stunning together and my heart is so happy as I lose myself in this creation. The ribbon flowers paired with the bow must be one of my favorite combinations ever... they're so ruffly, soft, and simply exquisite. I LOVE how you even carried over the microbeads inside them... that is amazing. YOU are such a talented cookie. Thank you for sharing your videos. I will be watching them shortly. I also love the crackle paste work. I love everything from your crafty heart. :o) Gorgeous creation, my friend! Lots of hugs for you and your fluffy friends. :o)
ReplyDeleteHugs and blessings,
Karen
Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh - so in love with the GORGEOUS green on this card Pamellia. Against the white and the purple - it just looks LUSCIOUS... well - the entire card is SPECTACULAR. I really believe this is one of my favorites of yours.
ReplyDeleteTWO tutorial videos - my gracious - what a thrill. Thank you so much. You are such a super teacher. Not to mention how easy they are to watch - super editor too! Well, hey = in my book your a just plain SUPER at everything.
And Chocolate Charlie is so handsome. He looks more like our squirrels but he is still prettier. Love the colors on his tummy. Loved your photos too. I would be scared walking through that tunnel - whew. Happy Sunday. XX j
