PaperBabe: January 2022

Thanks for visiting...

We have a new anything goes challenge on the blog today and...

I made another card, I went for a clean kraft and white colour palette, with a touch of rose gold.

So to create my white portrait I used the 3/4 view female face die

and the torso from body die, her top is hiding from her hair. I've completed the look by cutting layers of the Hollyhock hairstyle.

I actually cut her out of watercolour paper thinking I would be splashing lots of colours onto the paper but then I went with the pure white, hoping the shadows and texture do the work, I maybe should have raised them on foam but it's all about playing, this is one of those cards that needs a closer look lol!

I went for this sizzix mandala for the background and a little pine branch foliage from gold rose too. Then I added a small sweet sentiment with white embossing on kraft.

and I would love to enter my project to these wonderful challenges too...

Thanks for visiting... and a Happy New Creative Year!

We have a new anything goes challenge on the blog today and...

I actually created a card, my first creative project this year, full of woodland fantasy. I was probably inspired because I was sorting out my copic pens and just really wanted to use them lol.

I decided to mix up the hair styles by combining the fringe of the messy bun with the tails of the wavy bunches. Her face was stamped using the 3/4 view female face, I used morning mist ink. I wanted her to be part of the woodland and I've made her skin a much greener tone, but it didn't photo well.

I added woodland details like the bunny and mushrooms from the Whimsical woodland set, along with the Dinky Hands. When I realised she could hold the bunny I was delighted, actually there's a lot of the images in the set, she can hold that way.
