Have A Ball!

 Hi peeps!

I'm back with a card featuring another one of Anita Jeram's super cute illustrations, he looks like he's having a fab time! Lol!

I used Versafine Vintage Sepia ink to stamp the image on to Botanical Ultra Smooth watercolour paper and painted with my Faber-Castell Abrecht Durer pencils.

I ink blended with Distress Oxide ink pads in the colours Tumbled Glass and Broken China, splattered this with water and the same inks.

I hand stitched a heart, stamped the sentiment with Versafine Vintage Sepia ink and to finish I stamped some wee hearts with Versafine Clair Glamorous ink and dotted Stickles glitter glue next to them.

Happy Purrthday

 Hiya folks

Wow! Another scorcher today! We had thunder earlier but no rain so it's still boiling, urgh!

Anyhoo, more puddy cats on my card today, these sweeties are from My Favorite Things. I inked them with Versafine Vintage Sepia and stamped on to Botanical Ultra Smooth watercolour paper, painted them with my Faber-Castell Albrecht Durer pencils and fussy cut them out.

For the background, I used Distress Oxide ink pads in the colours Squeezed Lemonade and Wild Honey to ink blend, splattered with water, the same inks and Perfect Pearls. I then used a confetti patterned stencil on top of this and used the Wild Honey ink again. 

For the sentiment I used a die cut and stamp, die cutting the word 'happy' four times and layering for depth.

And the finishing touches are a few wee clay stars, some Stickles Stardust glitter glue and Nuvo Limoncello jewel drops.

Purrthday Wishes

 Hi peeps!

I'm back with another fabulous stamp from Anita Jeram @ Colorado Craft Co! I tried the 'no-line colouring' look and need a lot more practice I think!

I used a Gina K Designs Amalgam ink in the colour Barely There to stamp the image. As always I stamped on to Botanical Ultra Smooth watercolour paper and painted with my Faber-Castell Albrecht Durer pencils.

I ink blended with Distress Oxide ink pads in the colours Shaded Lilac and Wilted Violet, splattered it with water, the same inks and Perfect Pearls.

I stamped the sentiment and tag with Versafine Imperial Purple ink. And for the finishing touches I did a little hand stitching, popped some gems on and used some Stickles glitter glue.

Like Mittens In Winter.....

  Hi folks!

So on one of the hottest days of the year I blog a Christmas card and matching bauble! Lol! Never too early! 

These super cute kitties are from Anita Jeram @ Colorado Craft Co, love her illustrations. I stamped them with Vintage Sepia Versafine ink on to Botanical Ultra Smooth watercolour paper and painted with my Faber-Castell Albrecht Durer pencils.

I ink blended with Distress Oxide ink pads in the colours Salvaged Patina and Evergreen Bough. I then splattered that with water and the same inks and for the snow I used a stencil and some Nuvo Glacier paste.

And lastly, I stamped the sentiment with Deep Lagoon Versafine ink and added Stickles Frosted Lace glitter glue to their wee snow boots.

The matching bauble, front and back. I tried to make the back of it look like a snowball!

Ruby Anniversary

 Hello everyone!

Here's a card I made for my uncle and aunty's ruby wedding anniversary, where I was a wee bridesmaid 40 years ago!!! Crikey! Lol!

The sweet stamp is from Lili Of The Valley, I used Vintage Sepia Versafine ink to stamp with on to Botanical Ultra Smooth watercolour paper and coloured with my trusty Faber-Castell Albrecht Durer watercolour pencils.

I ink blended around the image with Distress Oxide ink pads in the colours Spun Sugar and Festive Berries and used a cloud stencil with these colours too. I then splattered with water, the same inks and Perfect Pearls.

I stamped the sentiment inside the heart balloon with the same Versafine ink, used some Stickles Sprinkled Sugar glitter glue for a bit of sparkle and popped some pretty heart embellishments on to finish.

Full Of Coffee Beans

 Hi everyone!

This was my Father's Day card for my Dad who loves coffee, so these sweeties were the perfect stamp set! They're from Anita Jeram @ Colorado Craft Co and I think I've bought nearly all her sets so expect more cute cards like this soon!

I stamped the images with my Vintage Sepia Versafine ink pad on to Botanical Ultra Smooth watercolour paper and coloured with my Faber-Castell Albrecht Durer pencils.

I ink blended with Distress Oxide ink pads in the colours Tea Dye and Vintage Photo. I then splattered this with water and the same inks.

I stamped the sentiment with the same Versafine ink pad and to finish I randomly dotted Stickles Diamond glitter glue for sparkle.

Thank you for visiting today :)
