Candibean Stamp --- Grown with Love

Hi Peeps

I would just like to share with you one of my Candibean images from the lateset release...............'Grown with Love'

I have coloured her with copics used some stampendous distress embossing powder the most of the flowers are from Wild orchid crafts and the distress resin  corner is from Live and love crafts.... i love the embellishment from this store!

The round doily die is from my local craft store, sorry i cant remember the make, the papers are from a Nit wit pack!

I hope you like it 

i'll be back soon

I'm Back!!!

Hi Peeps

Well i said i wasn't blogging anymore but i will occasionally post cards that i find i am happy with and share with you today a technique i saw on TV using a cloth with some texture, dab with the cloth with copic Blender then dab onto your coloured image, it lifts off the inks leaving a mottled effect, of course i did use some dotting aswell with the pens but i will be trying this again!!

Both images from my store coloured and B&W.

Hope you like the cards, Happy Valentines day!!
