Shades of teal

 

Hi Everyone
I loved yesterday's card so much, that I made another one in the same style
My stamp is unknown, and if anyone does know it I would love to know the details.
I stamped with Brilliance Graphite black and clear embossed.
The colouring was done with Memento teal zeal and two different Inkit ink pads. I smooched them onto my TH glass mat, added some water, and used a paint brush to colour
I have again doodled around the image, trimmed and mounted onto some teal card and adhered to a white card base

Another Merry Christmas

 



Hi everyone
This scan looks as though the right side of the card has been trimmed wrong, but I can assure you it is correct IRL!

I have directly coloured with Memento dewdrops (thank you Chris Dayton) in Bamboo Leaves and Lady Bug, my 2003 Penny Black stamp called Brush Holly
I have done some doodling around the image following a tutorial by Natasha Foote, a fellow Kiwi

Snowflakes

 

Hi, another Christmas card today

I have used a stencil (unknown) and Memento Bahama blue to make my pretty snowflakes.

I then ran it through my cuttlebug using a swiss dots embossing folder.The red sticker was adhered to a scrap, and the edges coloured with the stamp pad too. I ran the stamp pad around my base card which was white, to frame the embossed piece
