Feature a creature



Good morning to you all, it's time for our new challenge at Allsorts and this week Tracy has chosen the theme of' Feature a Creature'. Our sponsor is Digistamp Boutique and Sizzix and as always my teamies have come up with lots of inspiration to set you on your way.

I do apologise that I've not been out and about in blogland for a few days, the NHS are the culprits and now I am taking a little time to rest.

It's another one that I really enjoyed making, well you know me and scenes. Although we are well onto November now I still couldn't resist a hint of Autumn in my scene which I created with a good number of different stamps........in fact I counted them and seems I used fifteen in total. Once I has stamped everything in place using black archival ink I added the background colouring with Pan Pastels and finally hand drew a fence, something about fences and I always feel a need to add one to a landscape scene.......well how else do you keep the livestock in ?


I have a second make, this is one of my samples for next Saturday's Stamp Addicts Hochanda shows at 8am and 2pm, the Moose I have used on this card is one of the featured stamps along with a smaller version of the same image, some beautiful leaves and if your love Roses then you must not miss the shows...................I will share some more including the Rose closer to the day.

I stamped the Moose twice, coloured with Spectrum Sparkle pens and cut out one of the images to decoupage so he peeps over the Tattered Lace frame. The papers are I believe Trimcraft.

Happy weekend all.

Love your tranquil scene, Brenda, and you did a great job colouring your moose. I'm always telling DH he needs to listen to his body and I suppose I could tell you the same thing. So do take the rest you need!
Hugs, Marianne x

Another fantastic scene B. You really ARE amazing at these! Moose made me laugh!
Hope you are resting up (and doing as you're told!) At least there will be no jumping up and down on the sofa when nets bulge this weekend!x

Two lovely cards Brenda.
Have a blessing weekend.

Donna Ellis said...

Your scenes always mesmerize my little eyes, B. Both are uniquely creative and enjoyable. Moose are so regal. They are one of those animals that look stately and regal to me. I love that you have framed him so beautifully. Your dairy cows remind me of when we had cows, only ours were usually black or dark auburn. Thinking of you fondly, and sending loving and healing thoughts your way. XOXO

Your scenes are always in my favourite card of you, Brenda, and this isn't an exception!! Amazing quite scene, love the autumnal feel with the little spashes of orange! Beautiful animals stamps and your hand-draw fence is a perfect complement!!! The second one card make me smile! This Moose peeking out from the frame is so cool and fun! He smiles, too! :D It seems that he peeking out from a bauble! All the gold makes the card very stilish!
Hope you feel good today. Big hugs!
