The Paper Players & Crafty Cardmakers

Good evening, or morning where ever you may be.

Tonight I am entering this card into two challenges.

The Paper Players - they would like you to use trees or leaves (the leaves are on my flowers)
and
Crafty Cardmakers - Marie has chosen the theme which is to use Winged Things.

Check out what the Design Teams came up with - Bee-you-ti-ful!!!

My stamp is called Ladybug Nora who is a Swiss Pixie from C.C Designs. Can you see her cute little wings? I have also used the Stone Wall from this collection. I have stamped Nora first then used a mask and my Stamp-a-ma-jig to place and stamp the wall. The butterflies add a nice little winged touch :)




I have stamped onto Watercolour paper and have used my Stampin' Write Markers and a blender pen. I scribble the markers onto a plate and then pick up the colour with the blender pen. Because I am impatient, I have used my heat gun between layers of colour.

The colours I have used are : Melon Mambo, Crumb Cake, Basic Gray, Daffodil Delight, Pacific Point, Blush Blossom and Real Red.
I have also sponged the background with Bashful Blue but it doesn't really show in this photo.

I have added stickles to the ladybug and Nora's wings (Gunmetal & Diamond)

Thanks so much for looking xx

  5. She's certainly a sweetie and I like the grosgrain ribbon. It adds a lovely texture.
