Old School

I thought id go back to some old techniques to try & get me back in to crafting. So i got one my Linda Ravenscrofts cd roms out.

I love the cds as you can change to colours to make it your own. This isnt the original background, clothes or flowers. 

Hope you like this

Thinking of my Blade xx

Today is my first birthday without Blade at my side. It would have been his a week today.

saw this verse .... so true xx

Keeping it simple and letting the verse stand out. Coconut white and platinum card stock. I have used the background and tag from the Austria collection, mounted this over a pixie powdered background. I added two butterflies from my stash

Happy Birthday

A few flowers fora special birthday..

For this one i used complete daisies, cornflowers, laurel leaves, trailing ivy and an itty bitty bow.

The blue and pink flowers are made from card covered in pixie powders and the white and purple flowers are from plain foundation card, as is the card used for the foliage.

The bow is using some ribbed red card from my stash.

The stamp is one of Sue Wilsons.

Colouring part 3

Last of the three pieces of colouring. For this one i chose a bolder flower pattern. I chose three set of colours and four shades with that range.

I am pretty pleased with how this one came out.

Hope you like it

Colouring part 2

Another hand coloured piece from the colouring book.

For this one i tried to make the fairy dresses look like they have movement and natural shading on the skin tones and hair.

I think i managed to make the daffodils & narcissus look real to.

Hope you like it

Colouring part 1

A little something different this week.

I have been trying to get to grips with my alcohol markers, so instead of doing a card (even though i don't put backs on them) 

I have used a colouring book i was bought for Christmas as a way of practicing shading techniques.

Hope you like it
