Peaceful Place stamped onto Wood Textures DSP

 
What a beautiful stamp set this is. It's called Peaceful Place and I'm delighted that it will carry over into the upcoming catalogue. Something that won't be carrying over is the lovely Wood Textures Designer Series Paper, which I've stamped directly onto for this project, then watercoloured on top. It makes a lovely effect and I'll really miss this paper. That lovely Old Olive Linen Thread has been given its marching orders, too, which is a shame!

Wonderful Romance - Stampin' Blends or Blender Pens?

Stampin’ Blends or Blender Pens - which do you prefer?

The image on the left is coloured with Blender pens in a mixture of greens, including Granny Apple Green, which is why it is more vivid. The one on the right is coloured with Old Olive and Calypso Coral Stampin’ Blends (light and dark), with an outline of light Pool Party.

Both are stamped onto Very Vanilla cardstock and cut out with the fabulous new Stitched Rectangle Framelits.

But the most important thing to remember when colouring is this...

Wonderful Romance in Calypso Coral

Last week was my monthly Crafty Friday event, where we used the new Wonderful Romance stamp set.

This has a variety of sentiments, for weddings, anniversaries, Valentine’s, even sympathy (see above), but can be used for any occasion, even a simple notecard, as below.

We coloured the image above using ink pads and Blender Pens. Come back later in the week to see another version coloured with Stampin’ Blends.

All the products to make these cards are available at my online store
