I used a gold peel off vase on the 'window' of an envelope and fussy cut the vase.
Somewhere in Blogland I read about removing the glue from double sided tape and rolling it into a sausage - to enable sticking small items - but this time I was using it as the stalks for my Delphinium themed ATC.
Once the sausage was rolled I stamped it all over with several shaded of green ink, it didn't show up as one solid green but turned out to be variegated which gave it a much better look - to me anyways!!!
I punched some small leaves from some bright green paper to complete the card.
I cut the adhesive into short lengths, to look like flower stems, rolled two thirds of each one into some liquid glue and then the Flower Soft. I left everything to dry overnight.
I printed out a picture of an eye, a fantasy type one, and then added a definition of Delphinium that I found on the web.
I placed the stems behind the peel off vase then adhered it to the card leaving the top slightly open so that I could place some leaves in among the flowers and around the top edge of the vase.
I cut the card round the blue border, leaving one of the Delphiniums overlapping the edge.
My finished card.
I received this beauty from my partner. I can't tell whether it is a watercolour or not but it certainly looks like it.
Thank you Caro.
