Seeing Red at Crafts and Me

This week at Crafts and Me we would like you to use red in any shade you like and there will be the chance to win a surprise set of Christmas goodies from Crafts and Me.

For my card I have used one of the new images that will be available in the Crafts and Me store very soon :D

I have coloured her with the following Spectrum noir pens:

Skin: TN2, EB1

Dress: DR7, DR6,DR5,DR2 - JG6, JG3,CG4

Wings: DR7, DR6,DR5,DR2 - GB9,GB7, GB4

Hair: IG10, IG7,IG4

 

For the back ground I thought I would have a play and make my own with some of the yummy new Distress inks. I have used Scattered straw then Festive berries and then Gathered tigs and put them on with my Deamweaver brushes. To finish it off I used some artistic flourish stamps from inkadinkado and stamped them in smokey grey versa randomly over the top. The beautiful velvet ribbon is from Crafts and Me and the gold card and red gems are from my stash.

 

 

Happy Birthday House mouse

You know how much I LOVE the brilliant and super cute house mouse stamps and decoupage and everything else they do so when I saw that House mouse and friends challenge is having a massive birthday hop I just had to take part :D
For my card I have used the adorable stamp from the unmounted range at Joanna Sheen called Ice cream. I have coloured them with my promarkers. For the background I have made my own using a swirly stamp I got from the show at Sandown yesterday. I have stamped it in Distress ink (walnut) and then used my Dreamweaver stencil brushes to add lipstick distress ink from the edges towards the center. The sentiment is from Crafty Emma's Store.
