unicorn March 10, 2010

A new unicorn along with a few other new stamps.

This is one of my favourites at the moment

I have brayered the background using a combination of Sailboat blue and Eggplant, then stamped with versafine Onyx black.

I finished off with with this amazing stuff called cut and dry introduced by my good friends Lucy and Carol, you have probably already heard of it you just kind of scrub your colour over the edges of the card using Adirondack inks or distress inks. I love this technique.

spring flowers March 8, 2010

Spring Flowers

The Brayered background colours used are Citrus Green Sunshine Yellow and Red pepper Adirondack.

Then i have stamped in Onyx black versafine,because versafine is oil based it has repelled the watercolours i have used over the top of the flowers.

Then lastly i have used the star stamp liquid pearlswith a little glitter over the top.

Gives us a real spring time feeling
