Last night I was just itching to get crafting! I need to be more organised and do some sketches first - I had no idea what I was going to come up with!
The first was just an experiment with colours, really:
I wanted to try layering different papers, so I went for a summery theme with this lovely fresh paper from K&Co (bottom third).
I also sponged a very light blue shadow onto the pale green card as it wasn't as deep a green as on the patterned cardstock.
SUPPLIES
- Hero Arts "What's Cooking?" stamp set
- K&Co cardstock (for background and also for stamped images)
- Dovecraft cardstock (pale green - they don't specify a colour!)
- White cardstock (Papermill)
- Fiskars scalloped-edge border punch
- Copics (to colour hearts/frills/pockets on apron)
- White gel pen for stitching detail
- Chesnut Roan chalk ink for stamped images
- Blue ink (the colour name is in Japanese so not sure about that!) for sponging
My next card was, again, unplanned, but I had a more subtle palette of colours for it so it was a bit easier!:
SUPPLIES
Same as above, except, of course, that I used different cardstock, but they are still by K&Co, and Dovecraft.
Well, I'm off now - I'm having my hair done for the first time in ages! It's got SO long, so am going to cut a bit off - can't wait!!!
Hope you liked the cards, TTFN!
