Sea you soon....

Wow that was a different 4th of July for most of us!
Ours was nice and relaxing hope yours was too!
Sometimes we just have to be quirky and have fun and that is what
these guys from Twistoon are doing
They are social distancing from all of us and it looks like they may be a little concerned !


My image was colored using copics, and the background was made with the Ocean waves stencil using "Seafarer Archival ink.

Hope you find some time to get creative it is good for the soul!

A special moment!

                                                  
Hi there are you ready for the big weekend?
I am so excited to be a guest designer
for Lavinia World! These stamps just allow me to escape into a world all of their own!




I love creating the backgrounds for these cards.  This background was created using Brusho's purple, yellow and turquoise on a gelli plate. I then take an A2 size piece of watercolor paper and press it on the gelli plate, I let it dry for a bit and proceed to create my scene.
I always stamp the main images first and then build from there. I have used the following stamps for this scene.

I used 3 VersaFine Clair inks on this card,
When everything is stamped I take a piece of round cardstock and place it where I want it and just ink off of the cardstock to create the moon.  I then took a glue pen and went around the edge and then added glitter
I blend my inks with the Picket Fence Studios Blender brushes.
I always finish the edge of my card by inking them a little darker.
