Sweet Pea Stamps
Hello folks, here I am again with another creation for Sweet Pea Stamps. This week I am working with the beautiful digi 'Serenity' by Concetta Kilmer
To begin with my first personal challenge was to attach black hair. I so often get this very wrong by trying to over blend using 5 grey colours plus black. This time I decided to try something a little different - black, plus ice grey 5, 3, and 1 (Promarkers). All the colouring was done in the greys and then I used the black with the fine nib to build up the black.
With that done, time to colour the rest of the digi.
Phew, - eyes need a rest now lol. OK - better and coffee drunk so back to crafting. I started on the card base where I plan to use black card, olive green paper and black lace for a rather sexy look hahahaha
Card put together now for the embellishing. I have mixed together gold and clear embossing powders, I don't want a solid gold but just a sprinkling. This will be used on the butterfly which I cut with Spellbinders Les Pavilions 2.
Here is the butterfly - black for the base layer and the top layer coloured with olive green Promarker. Both sections finished off with the gold and clear embossing powder mixture.
A few more bits and bobs needed, Stickles, peel off sentiment (not sure if I am using gold or colouring a silver one in greens yet), ribbon and of course a tag which I have been making as I go along with the other sections.
All done. I finished off the inside of the card with cerise paper cut with Spellbinders Grand Labels 1and a rubber stamped butterfly which I painted with Stickles lol.
And here we have the finished card :)
Thank you for stopping by :)
