Christmas...

   My first Christmas card this year.

   I used the Hero Arts layering Poinsettia stamp set. I stamped the layers using Hero Arts inks in shades of red: Fresh Peach, Pale Tomato and Red Royal. The middle of the flower I embossed with gold embossing powder from WOW.

Peony Bouquet

   After such a long time, I finally got the Altenew Peony Bouqet stampset! I still love it!

   I made a simple card using the two flower images stamped with Altenew inks: Rose Quartz, Puffy Heart and Purple Wine for the flowers, and Mountain Mist, Volcano Lake and Lagoon for the leaves. I added some glitter with Wink the Stella pen to the petals.

Use your mistakes...

When you make a mistake and shift your paper before stamping the image for the second time...

You can still use it to practice!



Loving roses

A love card made using a rose stamp from Penny Black. I coloured the image with my Kuratake Zig Clean Colour Markers. They seem to be a fast, easy and enjoyable way to colour stamped images. I will definitely use them more often in the future.








Simply flowers

   A very simple watercolour card with floral arrangement. It is blank- perfect for any occasion. 






Floral Thanks

   Beautiful card using a wonderful stamp from Mama Elephant. It doesn't need much embellishment. I simply watercoloured the image, covered the sentiment with Glossy Accents and added a few gems.














Black background

   'Beautiful Flowers' stamp set from Simon Say Stamp is definitely my favourite one so far. The images are wonderful and they require very little to look stunning. I've created two cards using black paper and stamping the main flower image in Unicorn white pigment ink from Hero Arts.
   On the second card, I coloured the image with Perfect Pearls from Ranger, creating my custom shade of pink by mixing white and red powder.






















Sleeping baby

   One again I used my gorgeous sleeping baby stamp to make some 'Congratulations' cards for expecting parents. I coloured the images with my Cotman watercoloures from Winsor & Newton, using different shades of blue and pink.
