Watercoloured Aquarius

Hello everyone and welcome to my two new followers, Ryan and Annett.



Today's card was made with one of the fabulous free zodiac digi stamps from Making Cards & Papercraft magazine, this one is Aquarius

Me and My Dragon

Just popping in to share a card I made with another of my latest purchases - 'Me and My Dragon' stamps by Mama Elephant.

I stamped and watercoloured the dragon and girl on watercolour paper then cut them out. To make the ink for spritzing the background I just loaded some green paint into an empty spritzer bottle using a wet paintbrush and added a little water. A little goes a long way.  

I tried the same with the grey paint at the bottom, using copier paper to mask off the rest of the card. This left too harsh a line though so I softened it with a wet paintbrush. 

Hanging with my Gnomies

This lockdown is no good for my bank balance, I can't stop buying new stash 😄 

These are Janet Klein's 'Gnomes' from Aall & Create.

 

A Visit to Vera Lane

Morning peeps, happy Monday to you.

I was delighted to find that one of the Aall & Create Artists, Janet Klein (who designed the Chicken Dance stamps in last week's post), has an Etsy shop called Vera Lane Studio.

Sleeping Dragon

Hello lovely peeps, I hope you are well.

 

I am delighted to say that I am a Guest Designer over at Rabisco Challenge for the next fortnight, thank you so much ladies for having me.

Aged to Perfection

Hello lovely peeps, I hope you are well.

 

I found a printed paper in my stash this week which reminded me of the rings you get from a coffee cup/wine glass. Luckily I'd written on the back since I didn't have the foggiest idea where it was from (a free CraftArtist kit called 'Mexican wave').

MFT Comic Strip

Hello lovely peeps, I hope you are well.

 

One of my favourite challenges for inspiration is the MFT Sketch Challenge, the designers always adapt the sketch so well. When I saw the sketch for this week it reminded me a little of a comic strip on it's side
