Uplifting

An 'uplifting' card today, using my favourite colour combo (yellow, pink and orange) to bring you a bit of sunshine on this horrible rainy day.
 

Despite all the showers today there was enough light for photos so I did a little step by step.

Piglet love

Who doesn't love Winnie the Pooh and all his friends?

I spotted 'Inky Pinky Piglet'  in the Vera Lane Studio shop and had to have him.

I've used the same drippy paint technique that I first used in 'A Visit to Vera Lane'. By the way, the sentiment on this card is also from 'Hello April'

Snappy Birthday

A quick post from me today to show you a card made with the 'Watch the Birdie' digi stamp from Lili of the Valley.
 

I coloured him in with Copic markers and cut him out (he has a little birdie on top of his head but I chopped it off)

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.
