Tala is coloured using my pens and I went for a simple suede look to her clothes.  I love these digi papers, they were a freebie I found ages ago, but are perfect for her.  I stamped the believe sentiment out in versafine,and then stamped the border using cranberry and pesto ink. I added some raffia for texture.

 Today I am showing you a funky card I made using a selection of stamps from Visible Image Stamps.

I went for something a little different for me and tried out a new technique.  I stamped and masked off the Live your dreams sentiment, before stamping  the retro dots background and the grunge check background  in black versafine ink and then heat embossed it using clear embossing powder.   I created circle stensils using my nesties and then used distress inks to colour those circles in over sections of the card.  The embossing powders resist the ink so there is no smudging.

Today I am showing you a card I made using the Jake Skates set from Visible Image Stamps.

I love Jake, he is a typical cheeky boy, and is such a fun character to colour.  I kept everything simple, as I didn't want to hide my favourite type of papers - gingham!!!  I added some jute which I bent to imitate a skateboard amp.  I stamped the stars from the set and cut them out, before adding the sentiment.

That Craft Place challenge

 Its Sunday and that means it's time for a That Craft Place challenge and the theme this week is inspired by music - 

I was inspired by a beautiful card Cheremane made and basically pinched her idea!!  I stamped the music stamp onto cream cardstock, and then distressed round the edges using victorian velvet distress ink.   I stitched round the edges of the cardstock. I stamped the butterfly onto the cream cardstock and then cut it out.  I curved the wings to create dimension and added the sentiment below it.  Finally I added some pearls.
