Althought my favourite auntie’s birthday comes is in June, this year I could meet her only a few days ago. Thus, only now I can show you the picture of the gift I made her, and the card in particular. I love making parcel seals with natural elements, like dry flowers or rise and barley ears.

The greeting card is floral too. I printed it using Impress pad on glossy paper and I coloured it with Impress markers and alcohol. The stamp I chose on the background is a Leopardi’s poem (Impronte d’Autore), and I used Impress pad to print it too. I made the marble effect on the background with Impress and gold pigment refills with alcohol.

For the inexperienced: create a mask to avoid any interference between the background stamp and the main subject. First, print the flower on the paper; then print the same flower on a post-it and cut it using sharp scissors and put it on the flower printed on glossy. At this point, print the background. When you remove the post-it flower, you will see a perfect image ready to be coloured as you like.
P.S.: per le più curiose: il pacchetto conteneva una pochette da manicure : )
P.S.: if you really want to know, inside the parcel was a manicure-pochette : )
