Happy Monday,
Martine Smith will be representing Crafts Too Today at 10am and 3pm on Hochanda with her first solo show. She has some beautiful Nellie Snellen scenic stamps and I have made a few samples for the show.
The project I am sharing today is made using one of the stamps on the show along with one of my new matching flower stamps and dies form the launch this weekend!
I simply stamped this onto pearl card in smokey grey ink. I then coloured the image using mer de Sud Izink dye ink pen pulling the colour its using a water brush. This gives a soft shaded look and is great if, like me, you're not the best colourist!
Im not 100% which show these will be on but they are the new Hydrangea matching stamp and die plate which is designed to easily give you the shaded look you get on these flowers.
Dont forget to tune in for Martines show at 10am or 3pm.
Enjoy...
Morning John, a really lovely card, great stamp design and lovely colours. Hope Martine's shows go well. Have a good day everyone. Bx
ReplyDeleteMorning John, oh this is such a lovely sample, I have already ordered my stamp, just need to get the Hydrangea set, will be watching and cheering Martine on, yes she will be nervous at first, only natural, but once she gets in her stride she will be teaching us all the wonderful techniques and tricks she knows. xxxxxxx
