I really love the steampunk images that are available from Sweet Pea Stamps. They provide such a different feel to a card, and are always so much fun to colour.
The cards I am showing today are from Brigid Ashwood's Sheet #3, Plate #104.
I wasn't sure how I was going to tackle this amazingly detailed image. So I just started with the skin and hair and then it all just fell into place.
For this second image I really wanted to try my hand at a monochromatic colouring. So I chose the Cool Greys and set to work.
The image had a soft feel to it, so I tried to make the card a little more feminine.
It is amazing how to images from the same sheet of stamps can yield such different results.
Thank you so much for joining me today.
Hugs Renee
