Hello everybody Etsuko
Pixienest right here with you in the present day.
For my first weblog in 2025 I chosen a set of previous
HP1506 butterflies from PaperArtsy assortment of practically 80 HotPicks to create a barely classic card. And after I obtained my first PaperArtsy stamp, I used to be eagerly ready for it to reach as a result of I knew it will develop my world, and that feeling hasn’t modified.
For this challenge I used the marginally newer Sizzling Picks stamps HP2401 and HP2402 to make small labels and tags for adornment and Seth Apter tissue PT06 for the cardboard background. I used to be very impressed with the nice impact this massive patterned tissue produced. I first grew to become conscious of the tissue paper approach from a Leandra tutorial 10 years in the past, which I’ve included a hyperlink to in case you are . Leandra’s tissue tutorial
These are the principle provides used on this challenge. The paper and paints used for the bottom are offered within the subsequent layer part. The stamps are primarily HP1506 and different HP2402, the Printed tissue papers are Sizzling Picks PT07 and Seth Apter PT06, and Mattints (The pink, Dragonfly and Glow ) had been used for colouring. Mattint works very properly with tissue paper and is used incessantly.
Mattints had been chosen for colouring on tissue paper due to their good transparency and the truth that they are often utilized with out damaging the paper. And it labored easily. I really like them!
The paper was then lower into items in line with the aim for which the photo-slider had been for use. Spherical cutters had been used for the 4 corners of the photo-sliderr.
That is the photo-slider for focus butterfly. Rectangular home windows had been used for a die-cut.

On the identical paper, the script part of Sizzling Picks PT07 tissue paper was glued on with Mod Podge and when dry, Mattints The Pink, Dragonfly and Glow had been utilized to every part.
I needed two decorations on the within body of the photo-slider, so I used HP1602 chevrons. Two spherical marks had been additionally used for labels and tags.
Acetate glued to the holder home windows and the butterfly sliders are prepared.
Additionally darkish brown outer body and HP2402 texts added. The small tag ornament on the aspect of the slider, which is barely seen, has been added to the picture beneath.
Lower out three playing cards from the primary background paper, Tim Holtz clock face cardstock and Seth’s printed tissue paper PT06 had been every lower and collaged on high of the background.
I needed to place a small labels beneath between the butterfly holder and the background. So I selected small letter stamps from HP2401 and HP2402 to make these labels.
The labels had been fabricated from kraft paper or white paper, colored barely with an ink pad and surrounded by Classic Picture to offer a aged.
That is the slider-side dangling, a small bronze eyelet has been added and clipped on.
The paper was lower into 5 mm vast strips and trimmed and caught to the perimeters of the cardboard.
White trim fitted and background end. I liked the general ageing color end.
Lastly, a butterfly photoslider was connected to every card to finish the method.
I actually loved this challenge utilizing PaperArtsy Sizzling picks because it allowed me to reveal the classic model I really like a lot. I’ve not too long ago been making and storing selfmade labels and tabs to create clusters and clips for my junk journal, and I’ve included that technique into this challenge and collaged the labels. Please attempt making labels of various shapes and colors from the stamps you’ve gotten readily available so as to add to your work and have enjoyable!
