Valentines Day card using watercolor & freezer paper masking

Hi,
I recently watched someone making a T-shirt using freezer paper masking.
Freezer paper is used to wrap meat. It has a shiny surface ( plastic coated) & a regular surface. When pressed with an iron box the plastic coating melts and it will adhere to the surface to be worked on. I incorporated the same technique to make a card for Valentines craft series. I enjoyed making them.
The iron box temp is set to medium heat setting. Strathmore watercolour paper is used. I used a kitchen freezer paper, nowadays freezer paper is available as craft freezer paper as well. The kitchen freezer paper comes in a big roll, while the other comes in sheets.



Watch the video for the making process



Supplies used are
Strathmore watercolour paper
Sakura Koi watercolour 24 pan set
Watercolor brush round no14
Freezer paper

Thank you for watching

Shadow Box Card - Easy method

Hi,
Shadowbox cards are my favourites. I started liking them at once I saw them made by some of the creators of Lawn Fawn. They used their dies for making this box card. As I do not own a die cutting machine, I thought of making by my own. I made one, that was easy too.

Measurements for making the box is
2 cardstocks 7 by 3 1/4 inches
Score the cardstocks at 4 inches  & 6 1/2inches on the 7-inch side.

For inside supporting pieces
3 cardstock pieces measuring 3/4 and 5 inches
score and fold at 1/2 inches from both sides of the 5-inch side.


Embellishments ( I made my own using Lawn Fawn fairy friends stamps )

Watch video for the tutorial


Supplies used are 
Cardstock
Pencil & ruler
Craft Knife
Embellishments
Double sided tape
Clear glue 

Thank you
