Free-form waves using the Floating Technique

We made this gorgeous 'wave' card at a Team meeting last month.  I used the Waves of Inspiration bundle and a Blending Brush for the sky.

The colors are Bermuda Bay, Pacific Point and White.  See those gorgeous gems?  They're called Rhinestone Waves Basic Jewels and there are 168 in a package for just $6.50!  See them here.

I had a bunch of curvy foil pieces left over after die-cutting a bunch of these waves from the two blue colors in the Blue Foil paper seen here.  I challenged myself to use them and came up with a free-form wave using the Floating Technique.

I adhered various die-cut foil pieces to a Window Sheet using Multipurpose liquid glue and added them to the card with Stampin' Dimensionals.  This take a bit of patience as you can imagine!    

Here are some tips to achieve this:

  • It's best if you start at the bottom and add just a few pieces. Let it set to dry. 
  • Adding a weight over them while they dry helps keep them flat. The foil likes to curl up.
  • Next form the top of the wave.  I used one of the long curved pieces for this.  
  • Add just a few pieces at a time and let them dry.  They slide easily!
  • Fill in the center of the wave a few at a time. Again, add weight over it all to set & dry.  
  • Trim off the sides of the Window sheet at 4" to fit the White layer. I fussy cut the top to match the foil wave.  
  • I adhered it to the textured 'Bark 3D' White 4" X 5 1/4" piece of CS with mini dimensionals.

  • New Horizons scenic cards; a sure ‘wow’!

    I've been sharing cards made on a recent Facebook Live featuring the New Horizons suite this week.  You just cannot go wrong with these products!  Each Tuesday at 11 am CT I host a FB live. Follow me on FB here so you don't miss anything. 

    Today's cards feature the On the Horizon bundle along with the beautiful New Horizon designer paper.  Luckily this paper is in stock!

    The only stamping on this card is the birds. I inked in Misty Moonlight ink and stamped off once before stamping on the designer paper scene.  The paper provides the gorgeous background.

    The card base is Garden Green 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" scored in half at 4 1/4".  The designer paper is 5 1/4" X 4".

    The fence, grass, layered mountains and 'green hills' are all die-cut using the Horizon dies.  These dies are currently unavailable but they should be back in stock next week.  The 'blue' mountain was cut from a leftover strip of the designer paper and the detailed mountain was cut from White CS. 

    I decided to try a vertical card as well using this same sheet of New Horizons Designer Paper.  This time the card base is Blackberry Bliss cut at 4 1/4" X 11".  There are so many colors in this paper; many will work easily.

    Details for both cards:

    • See the On the Horizon's bundle here.
    • The New Horizon's designer series paper is seen here. 
    • the pebbles enamel shapes are also currently unavailable. They should be back in stock later in March.  
    • The fence, grass, mountains, hills are all from the Horizon dies.
