Elaine Cox - Katie

Here is a card that I have made using a Sweet Pea Stamps Elaine Cox image called Katie.  I have used the rubber stamp (she is also available as a plate rubber stamp (Plate 85) and Katie comes on the plate with Miranda, Bess and Maggie) but she is also available as a digital stamp.  I have coloured the image in with my Promarkers/Flexmarkers and highlighted areas with my Pan Pastels.  The backing papers I have used I was given.  I have laid the image on some card which I embossed with a flower embossing folder.  I have used my Tim Holtz On The Edge Butterfly Dye and spread over Peeled Paint Distress Stickles (no matter what I did with my photos the Stickles look pink but they are green!!).  I have finished the card off with some flowers, buttons, Craftwork Cards die-cut sentiment, lace and a gingham ribbon bow.

  5. nice work Kym, green can be such a hard color for me to work with so it's nice to see such beautiful works filled with greens to inspire me. Lovely embellishing.
