VIOLET ANGEL - JASMINE BECKET-GRIFFITH

Hello all.I hope you are all well.My son has gone back to school today so mormal routines can resume.lol.
Today i have a card to share with you using the violet angel stamp from the crafts and me range of stamps.this one is by the designer jasmine beckett-griffith.
I must admit that i am going to find this one hard to part with, i was really pleased how the card came together.
so here she is:

 gorgeous isn`t she and i really had a blast colouring her in.

 a tip when colouring in folds.once you have built up your colouring layers, do`t be afraid to add a little black.i use the black flexmarker as its a little wetter and then blend it out with your darkest blue, mine was indigo.
another tip use a white gel pen in the folds.apply in little dots and quickly blend out with your finger to really highlight the folds.

hello all.sorry its been a while since my last post but a certain person is off school so he is keeping me on my toes.so have you been to see sue yet cos she has another new range of stamps in from the company INKYLICIOUS.
they are beautiful stamps, they will suit all sorts of different occasions.
i have made this little card using the following inkylicious stamps:
scatter seeds which i overstamped over the image mat
fleur de pavot which is the poppies and this also has other stamps in the set
sentiments 1 for the sentiment - this set has 17 sentiments in total
these stamps are clear so great for people like me, really easy to see where you are stamping and no extra expense of having to buy foam mount.they are really cheap too but great quality.
so on to my quick card:

 i have used go create oval and scallop oval dies for the shape
some fab artist brushstroke white card to stamp the poppies and then i watercoloured them with distress inks and used glosssy accents over the 1 poppy.overstamped with the scatter seeds sentiment
