Paper Craft Crew Inspiration Challenge #PCC279 ~ Mardi Gras
Hi and thanks for stopping by today. It’s Jay here with my Design Team project for the Paper Craft Crew Inspiration Challenge #PCC279 ~ Mardi Gras
After thinking for a while of what I could do with this theme, I took the image above and Mardi Gras colours to create my own handmade mask using Stampin’ Up! products
Dimension: 25.5cm x 13.5cm
I used the Layering Ovals Framelits as a template to draw the main body of the mask with 1cm bridge then hand cut inside the lines with Paper Snips. I die cut 2 of the same size ovals and a smaller oval for the eye hole in Wisteria Wonder cardstock. These were then stamped with the splatter design from Dragonfly Dreams in Perfect Plum, concentrating more on the outer edges
I die cut 4 large dragonflies and 4 small ones from the Detailed Dragonfly Thinlits Dies. Cut off the body and carefully adhered the wings along the edge. I also die cut the large scallop from Layering Ovals in Garden Green and snipped in the middle for the ‘brows’
For the finishing touches, I added Gold Faceted Gems and of course I had to use the Gold Glitter Flakes!!! It really didn’t take that long, carefully placing the flakes individually with the help of a pick tool. You can make your own by applying a small dot of Multipurpose Liquid Glue on the other end of your Paper-Piercing Tool then wait for it to go clear/dry
I am also entering this project to the following challenges:
I hope you are inspired with this handmade mask for the Mardi Gras themed challenge #PCC279. You can check out the other Design Team’s creative inspirations back at the Paper Craft Crew blog and play along by submitting your own handmade creation ~ HERE
