Hi Bloggers.
One Day Special Shows continue today at 9am, 12noon, 4pm and 7pm - but will the stock last?We shall see! Hope you can join me.
I have a final two-fer for you today with a birdy theme.
Here's your first card -
I started by stamping the Woodware Old Letter Stamp onto Coconut White Card using Jet Black Archival. I made sure the ink was dry and then dusted with my Anti-Static Bag. I stamped the Woodware Special Bird using Clear Perfect Medium and embossed with CS Black Detail Embossing Powder. I coloured in using Pixie Powders. I used Straw Yellow, Burnt Orange, Lava Red and Emerald Green with a little Midnight Sky Mixer to make a darker green. I edged the piece with Chic Pumpkin Colour Cloud using a Smoothie and matted onto Black Card.
I stamped one of the sentiments that come with the Special Bird into the bottom right-hand corner of another piece of Coconut White Card. I edged the piece with Chic Pumpkin, matted onto Black Card and then onto a Coconut White Card blank.
Here's your second card -
For the background, I stamped the Woodware Splatters Stamp onto Bright White Card twice using Coffee Archival. I matted onto Chestnut Card and wrapped some Jute Twine around.
I stamped the main image from the Woodware Owl Love Stamp Set onto another piece of Bright White Card using a Tuxedo Black Memento Ink Pad. I also stamped one of the sentiments from the set. I coloured in using Graphmaster Pens. For the left-hand owl, I used 36, 104 and 101 with WG1 in the eyes and 37, 32 and 24 for the beak. For the right-hand owl, I used 103, 93 and 96 with WG1 in the eyes and 37, 32 and 24 for the beak. I used 100, 102 and 98 for the branch and 48, 59 and 47 for the leaves.
I scribbled around the edges using a Brown Pigma Micron Pen and matted the piece onto Chestnut Card.
I finished my card by adding a 5mm White Pearl to the corners of my background.
Hope you can catch the shows today.
Thanks for stopping by.
