Morning Peeps, time for our new Allsorts challenge and this week Wendy would like to see 'Pearls and Gems' on our artwork and she is kindly providing a lovely prize, do pop over to the challenge blog to see for yourselves.
Another scheduled post so fingers crossed Blogger is behaving. My top card used an Inkylicios stamp I received as a gift from a crafty friend, it has lovely detail and I kept this one fairly simple to allow the stamp to take centre stage. As is usual I stamped with Versafine black, coloured in with sparkle pens and added a Bee Crafty sentiment.

My second share uses a Penny Black image which I inked with Distress Markers and spritzed with water before stamping, I then masked off a section so that I could ink a frame around the bloom. The sentiment and Butterfly are also Penny Black.
And my entry for Mos' October Rudolph Day's challenge, all I need to do is remember to link it up when we get home from holiday and before the gates close for the month. I used this adorable stamp from Crafty Individuals which I stamped and masked, stamped the CB trees and added the background with Pan Pastels, removed the mask and coloured the images and finally some stamping around the borders and liquid pearl berries.
Happy weekend all.
