Another card made using the Sweet and Sassy stamp for Sugar Nellie, I was not too sure about the flowers to begin with I handmade them using the rear of the Bookatrix board, but I think they turned out alright.
Just going absolutely mad for the Sugar Nellie stamps - I own another 1 that I will be playing with soon and have ordered 2 more. I think they are exquisite and I just love colouring them in.
Here is my entry for this weeks Sugar Bowl Challenge - it was a to include pearls within the sketch design provided along with the obligatory Sugar Nellie stamp. My stamp is the Sweet and Sassy stamp and I have used 2 heart pearls, 1 oval pearl and 4 circle pearls within the design. The papers are from the Smirk collection. And the striped card I think is from a Dawn Bibby pack from years back. Image is coloured in with metallic pencils and Sakura glaze pens.
I love this stamp it is so pretty and I have really enjoyed experimenting by using different colour co-ordinations. I have used some K&Co baking papers on the green ones and the yellow and blue were from a Joanna Sheen CD and some papermania papers.
This is my first Sugar Nellie stamp that came in the post this morning -so I have used it to enter The Sugar Bowl Challengewhich was to follow a sketch but also to use buttons. I have used the Daisy and Dolly stamp along with smirk background papers, glitter background paper and silver mirri paper, have used mulberry flowers and have added pearlescent heart and dot gems and then the obligatory buttons. I coloured the image in using water colour pencils as at the moment this is the only colouring media I have. I also used smirk naughty and nice sticky ribbon.
It's my 12th wedding anniversary on Saturday 16th May and have made this card for my Husband - I have added extra embellishments to the card such as a glitter border to the topper, glitter on the paintbrush and pots, glitter straight line border stickers, and heart gems.
The challenge was to use flowers in your entry - I have used a flower background paper, mulberry flowers in the upper right hand corner, flower being held by bunny and 4 flower gems in the corners.
The theme is to use something shiny - my shiny is the silver mirror paper that makes up one of the layers on the card and a layer on each of the small flower toppers.
My stash from Jersey (Thanks http://www.artandcraftworld.com") - have almost everything from Daisy and Dandelion now just missing the Dandelion gone fishing decoupage sheet as it was out of stock.
Here is my first entry - themes are Purple and Cream - Black and Blue - or both. This is (obviously) my purple and cream entry each 1 is just very slightly different.
