Rosie

Here's a wonderful image from Sweet Pea artist ching-chou kiuk called Rosie.  Isn't she gorgeous?  She is sold on a plate of rubber stamps (Plate #126) or individually as a digital image. I colored her up with some beautiful yellow roses, as they say, yellow rose of Texas.  Then used some pretty yellow rose embellishments to go with her.  I added some gorgeous matching borders from Sizzix.

 

Here's a close up of the stamped image, she's just stunning

Drop by the Sweet Pea stamps store and check out all of ching-chou kuik's amazing images, both in rubber stamp and in digital stamp format.  Hope this card inspires you to make something bright and beautiful.

Cheers all,

Pirate, Skeleton Roses

Here's an awesome Sweet Pea stamp from artist ching-chou kiuk.  This stamp is Pirate Skeleton Roses.  Just Gorgeous!!  I couldn't wait to get my hands on it when it became a digi stamp, but it's also sold on a sheet of rubber (Plate #126).  I am using some die cut embossed skulls across the bottom of the card and some gorgeous lace from Turkey to embellish the card, but I really think the image itself takes center stage.  The Thinking Of You stamp comes on Plate#98.

Here's an enlargement of the stunning image.  As you can see, I am coloring the heart, the roses and the maiden's dress in the same colors of Copic Markers R81, R83, R85, R89.  Having the same color pattern on multiple locations in your image draws the eye across the image.

Hope this cards makes you check out the wonderful images of artist ching-chou kuik.  She has some gorgeous stamps including other pirate themed images as well.

Cheers, Holley

Tattoo Art and more

Today I want to show you two cards I made lately. The first one is made with this gorgeous image from the ching-chou kuiks fantasy art collection plate # 126. it comes with three other gorgeous images and three sentiments. 

I coloured her up with Distress Inks. The heart is paper pieced. I wanted to surround her with those corners from Marianne Design. The black paper in the background is from Magnolia. For the dots I used a piece of foil with holes, don't know the name of it, and used it as a pencil.  I didn't want to add much more as I guess anything more would be too much. 

For my second card I used one of those fabulous portrait stamps from the Elaine Cox's Art Collection. She is called 'Kiara' and comes on plate # 133 together with three other amazing portraits. She is available as a single stamp as well.

She is coloured with Distress Inks as well. The papers are from Websters Page. For the border I used a Martha Steward punch. The flowers are from Wild Orchid. The lace and ribbon is from my stash.

Thank you so much for having a look which is much appreciated. We just had a release of different amazing stamps from different and new artists. Just go to Sweet Pea Stamps to see them. Some of them are on Sale. 

Have a wonderful day!
