Tattered Lace

Good morning everyone. I'm here today with a make for the Tattered Lace Dies blog.

To create this card I used the foliage embossing folder to create the background on Kraft card, and used a distress ink on the edges. I cut out the Mini Doily, Lacy Border and the leaves from the Midi Blooms in cream card and also distressed the edges with ink. I then stamped the Tatty Twinkles stamp onto cream card and coloured her with Prisma pencils and used the distress ink on the edges.

Colouring backgrounds

Good morning everyone, it's nearly the weekend and I hope you all have a fabulous one!

I'm here today with a new challenge from the Graph'It Markers Colouring Blog. The new challenge is to colour landscapes or backgrounds. 

When I saw this challenge I must admit I panicked a little bit, well quite a lot actually! While I'm ok at colouring images, creating backgrounds I can't do! Anyway I had a go and this is what I came up with.

The image is a Tatty Twinkle stamp and the papers are from the Work & Play Collection CD 2. The die cuts are from Tattered Lace.

To create the background, after colouring the sky I used the blender to take out some of the colour in the shape of clouds.

The colours I used are:

Skin: 4125, 4150, 4135, 4145, 3120, 3210

Hair: 3210, 3245, 3250, 3255

Clothes: 8130, 8140, 8150, 8160

Sky: 7105

Grass: 8110, 8120, 8130, 8240, 8270
