Ballerina Bear


Last one for today is a cutie. Ballerina Bear is from Elzybells Stamps and is one of a range of cute bears doing all sorts of things. The Happy Birthday stamp is an old one from a PSX set. She was stamped in Vintage Sepia Versafine ink and coloured using Prismacolor pencils and blending fluid. Her dress has beads at the waist and a little touch of glitter on the tutu frill. Cut out with a label nestie and layered on a cuttlebugged background. I also added a paper ribbon border down the left edge of the card.

Scaredy Cat


Enough birds for today, heres a cat that is scared of mice! The stamp is a Sugar Nellie design, the words are from a Woodware clear set. He was stamped in black StazOn and coloured using Distress Inks. Layered again using nestabilities and a cuttlebugged background.

Sing Your Song


Here's another bird card, both the bird and word stamp are from Elusive Images. I stamped it in black StazOn and coloured with Prismacolor pencils and blending fluid. I then used the Inksentials white pen to add dots wherever I felt like it.I used the nestabilities for the layers on the bird, the blue layer behind it was cuttlebugged using an embossing folder.

So Tweet


I love this bird from Personel Impressions. I stamped it in Vintage Sepia Versafine on ivory card. I stamped it again on background paper and paper pieced the body. I used nestabilities for the layers, the so tweet wording is one of those cheap Imaginince stamps.

Pretty Floral


Today my card is a pretty image stamped in black and coloured using distress inks. It's layered using the nestabilities and finished with a piece of sheer ribbon. The image is from The Greeting Farm and the words are from Innovative Stamp Creations.

Inkadinkado Birds


I just love the Inkadinkado bird plate. The tag on this card is stamped with two of the images from the set. I've used distress inks to add colour to the tag. Then used the distress inks again and a Tim Holtz mask on a folded ivory card.

Vellum Tree


The vellum tree is a very simple design but one I really enjoyed creating. The stamp is from Stamp Camp. The vellum was embossed in white powder, then the little leaves were dry embossed on the back. The vellum was then coloured on the back using a sponge and inkpad.
