Howdie doodie peeps hows are ya 'al? I sat last night & decided to practice some more painting with distress inks & I got my sweeties out & as uusual I couldnt decide which one to do so I inked up 6 of them & went from there..........
This is the one I did first..........at least I got 6 more stamps inked up lol.....oh & my new ones got dispatched yesterday woooo hoooooo........
Anyhoooooo here is 'Serenity' by Ching-Chou Kuik.........
You can of course get this beauty from Sweet Pea Stamps.............the thing with these stamps as they suit so many different styles........you know how I love my sweet pea lol.
I have actually nee idea what style I was actually going for or what layout tbh lol.
Basically I used Prima 'Botanical' papers, Tulle, Lace that I won from the uber talented Elaine which I didnt want to use cus its just sooooo pretty but 'Serenity' deserved it, mmwah thank you Elaine sweetie. I also used some fabric from my fabric box, I also cut off a strip off the binding on the edge & stamped 'Memories' onto it. All paper got inked with white ink.
Here she is up close & personal coloured with distress inks & touched here & there with a glitter gel pen which I cant remember the name of..........ooops!!
Flowers are a mix from Crafty Emma's & my ickle hobbit doon the bottom of my garden lol. The brown card is actually from the insides of crimbo wrapping paper......recycle recycle!!!!
Well I'm off to see if there are any challenges as this I did just cus I want some Sweet playing lol.
I will be round later to catch up with the rest of you that I havnt been to this morn. The boys/men are out fishing so I'm gonna go dye my hair, throw myself in some water & scrub mesel with some of that soapy stuff. I will be back soon........inless I get sucked doon the plug hole......narrrrrrr that wont happen!!
Thank you all for your lovely comments on my spotlight yesterday it really meant a lot my sweeties mmwah. Thank you for stopping by you know I loves ya 'all.
Huge huggles to ya xoxoxoxoxox mmwah

Hello Shugar!! I love this card. But to be fair, I love all your beautiful cards. xxx
ReplyDeleteYou have a fantastic knack of colouring these Vicky, no matter what you colour them with!
ReplyDeleteI keep meaning to try DI's, but its knowing where to start I think. Do you use the ink pads, or just buy the refills?
Anyway, I treated myself to this paper pad from quixotic this weekend and it arrived today, I love that they are loads of different designs with just 2 of each. I never use up 6 of the same design.
This is so pretty, lovely neutral and delicate background, gorgeous flowers and I love your frayed sentiment too.
Have a smashing day (now you are clean)... lol.
