Brigid Ashwood's Firefly

Hi everyone, I'm jumping in to show you one of the new stamps/images that is on pre-order now. This artwork is by one of our new artist Brigid Ashwood. Her Steampunk artwork is so beautiful. The name of this one is FireFly. She is on sheet #3/ Plate #104.


I decided to make a travel journal book. This is going to one of my friends as she does alot of traveling and this wood be a great way for her to write down things while shes there so she don't forget before she get home.


Here is a close up of the image. I tried to make it alittle more rustic so if it got worn it would look like it was made that way.


I used some Tim Holtz DP and metal clock pieces. The rest of the DP is from DCWV Journey's collection, distressing inks, K&Company chipboard flower piece, clear sakura glitter pen, Tattered Angels Glimmer Mist, Chipboard flourish.





Here's another view to show some of the dimension.




Remember to check out all the stamps Sweet Pea offer HERE and to see what's on SALE.



Hope you like the Journey Journal book and thanks for stopping.

    You've done a great job with this Angela. The Steampunk series is not my style but you carried it off well.

    Yay! She looks awesome! To Micki - there is a lot to color with this image, and that can be intimidating, but she also looks great stamped in brown on a antiqued piece of paper. No coloring needed!

    Thank you ladies for all your sweet comments. I was going to do the whole no color thing too, but I ran out of time. I really wanted to try and see if I could color the gorgeous image first. So look out my attempt will be no coloring juat alot of distressing.
