Elegant birthday

A card that at the time I believed was too CAS (Clean and Simple) to send to the always elegant lady who designs her own ball gowns.. But it is beautiful just the way it is.



 I partially stamped the upper part of the image and changed it up with watercolours to resemble a ballroom gown, finished off with a stamped sentiment. As simple as that.


I'm entering the card in Allsorts Challenge Week 663

Tiddly Spring

I adore the quiet evening moments, when I get out of my white working uniform and jump head first into the world of colours! Spring is the perfect time for it with inspiration all around me. The inspiration for this post was a cherry tree I pass every day on my way to work. The blossoms are so soft and gentle I can't help but run my fingers through them every morning, it just makes my day. I was so excited to see this new stamp at Tiddly Inks Cherry Wryn. Isn't she adorable? I could just imagine the soft petals on my skin when colouring it. A stroke of acrylic paint, a touch of Distress Inks, foamiran flowers and voila.. here she is, Miss Spring herself :) She is so adorable I made a few versions and can't wait to have time to colour some more!

After rain comes sunshine

When we go through hardship, it is difficult to see the sun through the thick clouds. But we must remember, the sun is there, even when we can't see it. And there will be sunshine after all the rain. I promise.  This card took a little longer to make than my usual cards. It was made with a family member in mind after they suffered a heart attack. When your life changes upside down in an instant, it is hard to focus on the good things. But having family around who will be there for you no matter what, is the most you could ask for.  So I made two images that could easily be two separate card fronts, but together they conveyed the message perfectly with the b/w vs. colored image.  On the front panel I stamped the little girl and ducks from Hello Bluebird Singing in the rain stamp set together from clouds from an older set.  I masked the images and then blended the background with Distress Oxide Black Soot. Then I colored the images with C family of Copic markers, drawi...
