New release Chloe

Just received mine this morning and i am over the moon could not wait to get her inked up and I tried so hard to stay away from pinks like I normally do and thought blue and yellow, Just like my first kitchen in my first home with my son Fabian. The theme over at Pink Gem is Bloomin Charmin (blooms and charms) and I had ordered mine in anticipation that they would arrive so I could ready my card for the challenge. Oh how happy was I when they arrived this morning so got to work straight away and this is what I came up with,

You can click on the photo to get a better view, just a rundown for you we have on here, Chloe with butterflies a new release  from Pink Gem coloured with pro-markers and then blended with my prisma pencils for more shading and depth, mounted on to blue card from my stash and layered on to a card blank exclusive to Which craft and made this in to an easel card using other die cuts available in the pack. I also stamped and shrunk some butterflies on to plastic for a few handmade embellishments and die cut a flourish using Marianne  creatable, the sentiment is from Raindrop echo designs mini stamp stamps and dies Supplied by Whimsy  stamps.

 

I am entering this card in to my firm favourite Pink gem and Emerald faeries, where the challenge is to use petals, which is great, they also have some great inspiration from the design team, so pop on over this is challenge number three, so lets show them some support also, Top tip Tuesday where the challenge is open to anything, so as usual i always provide a good close up.

 

Isn't she pretty, once you stamp her once you’ll want to see her in every colour.

Thanks for stopping by.

Fair Maiden

I have pulled this stamp out from my stash, I haven't used her in quite a while she is a pink gem stamp and i do adore her I originally bought her with a little pet dragon which I started to use him on his own for boys cards and thought she was a bit neglected so it was time to bring her out again i coloured her in pro-markers  and added a bit of glitter to give her dress some shine, I the cut her out with nesties, to the side she has some pink velvet ribbon trim and some lace trim, for this challenge we had to follow a sketch over at Pink Gem,

I reversed the image to the left, as you can see, and co-ordinated my flowers to match, I am also entering this project in to two other challenges Just Magnolia #110 Anything goes with the option of Lace and also Paper-take weekly Anything goes , hope you like it.

 

 

And as always the close up.
