Tinkerbell Little Lady Bug

Hello everyone.  It's Annette here again with another Stamp Basket creation.

I'm really loving these new Saturated Canary Rubber Stamps and this is the second time I've used this sweetie.  Last time she was in red, but this time I've coloured her in green, like Tinkerbell the fairy from Peter Pan.

I've reverted back to the safety of my Copics again for this one, so that I could cope better with her hair (I just can't seem to get hair right with the DI, and this girl needs to have good hair)

All items are from The Stamp Basket as follows:

• Image - Little Lady Bug
• Cardworks Shaped Card base
• Papers - Prima Sun Kiss
• Memory Box Honeyblossom Sprig
• Glossy Accents
• Vintage Style Limoges
• Hobby House 8mm Pearl Brad

Pop over to The Stamp Basket to see the lovely array of products on offer.

Happy crafting

Amy

Hiya everyone.  It's Annette here today using Whimsy's Amy from The Stamp Basket.  I've opted for a beautiful purple colour scheme for this card, and really tried harder with my colouring of the image.  I've coloured her first with copics, and then done some highlighting and shading with my pencils.  I worked for ages on her hair with both the copics and pencils, and it went from looking worse than my usual attempts can manage, to being what I now consider to be adequate.  I think I need to revisit the hair colouring department!! LOL.

I added some tufts of grass at her feet using a flicking motion with really sharp pencils in a few different shades of green.

I've also included two lovely dies, both coloured in some way; the picket fence was cut in white card, and then coloured with copics and pencils, and the honeyblossom sprig was cut in purple card and I used a dark purple copic to give the flower centres some depth before adding a huge pearl centre.

I've stitched around the image and DP panels, added a beautiful bow in the gorgeous sparkly sheer white ribbon, a few pearls and some flowers, and voilà!

All items are from The Stamp Basket as follows:

• Image - Amy from Whimsy Stamps
• Sentiment is typed (HandwritingFont)
• Cardworks Shaped Card base
• Whimsy Dies Picket Fence
• Memory Box Honeyblossom Sprig
• 5mm Lilac Pearls (tri-colour in one sheet)
• Liquid Pearls
• Hobby House 8mm Pearl Brad
• Hobby Bouse 8mm Ivory Pearls
• Sheer White Ribbon
• From my stash - Flowers from Wild Orchid Crafts, Purple ribbon scraps, Sewing machine,

Spring Honey Blossom

Hi, it's Annette here today with an Elizabeth Bell card in some lovely spring fresh colours.  I tried so hard to colour her hair, doing lots of flick movements with my copics, but I still don't think that it looks that good.  More practice needed, I think!

I coloured my pearls, and the pearl brad with my copics to match the pink theme, and maintained my new year's resolution to include stitching on my card.

I've also used my honeyblossom sprig die again, this time I've coloured it with my chalks rather than leave it plain pink.

All items are from The Stamp Basket as follows:

• Image - Whimsy Picked Sweet
• Cardworks Shaped Card base
• Prima Meadowlark Papers
• Memory Box Honeyblossom Sprig
• Memory Box Marshmallow Clouds
• Liquid Pearls
• Snow White pearls (coloured with copics)
• Hobby House 8mm Pearl Brad (coloured pearl with copics)
• Pink Satin Ribbon
• From my Stash - Flowers, Sewing machine

Happy crafting, and I'll see you again tomorrow.
