Paperbabe Stamps Challenge #13 ~ Brights

It's a theme challenge over at Paperbabe Stamps today...

I've used bright watercolours for my card, it's raining here today so a sunny card is just what we need.

I've used Oriental Zen for most of my card, the flowers were heat embossed in white ink and coloured with bright watercolours.

The sentiment also embossed in white and the black and white stripe pattern on the background were from the Fabulous Everything set.

I wish to enter this card to a few other challenges too...

Using sentiment from Just Because

Using sentiment from Mayleedee Little Red

Well I ended up creating a little bundle of mini 4" cards, with cute envelopes with stamped faces on, I think these faces might be popping up on many things now... (is anything safe?) The tag uses the digi head, I simply cut the card at a funky angle and stamped love and hearts, I think they've showed up on every card too lol!

Here's the colours I've used for this whole set, oooh and a new sharpie white marker for those sparkle dots.

I would love to enter these into a few crafty challenges:

Papertake weekly ~ with heart

Copic marker europe ~ feathers or fur

Paperbabe Stamps Challenge #12 ~ Picture Inspiration

It's a Picture inspiration over on the Paperbabe Stamps challenge today...

Use the picture to inspire you, it could be the image or pretty colours, create any art your inspiration takes you and have FUN!

I chose to create a profile portrait using the Profile Face stamp set, along with the Head & Torso Template with the Curly fringe Hair template. I drew around the templates with my Sakura micron pen. The face, facial features and ear were all stamped.

I've coloured her using copic markers inspired by those fairy cupcake pastel colours, I wanted to achieve a quite cartoony graphic image and had to try an ombre effect on her hair by blending my copic colours.
