Morning Peeps another new two week challenge at Allsorts, Mervi is our host and her theme is 'Anything Goes with the option of Roses'. Our prize is the beautiful Chocolate Baroque Floribunda Net stamp.
A heads up that Lesley will be back at The Craft Store this Friday 6th August at 9am and 1pm, one show will be all about Christmas and the other featuring some new and very different A4 stamp sets using artwork by Fiona Randall. I will be sharing one or two of them over the next few days.
For the above creation I used two CB Whiteboard Hearts covered with acrylic pains and crackle glaze, then stamping the berries from CB Autumn Poppy, quote from my Life is so much Better and Roses from Floral Perfumery.
My second creation uses Ruth's Wild Roses which you will find on her web site Ruth Hamilton Design. I created my own DP using some small CB worker stamps, coloured the blooms with some new metallic pens Karin Deco Brush which work extremely well on black card but they are opaque so you do lose a lot of the stamp detail. Dies for the fancy edge and sentiment from Life is so much Better.
Happy weekend everyone and thanks for your kind visits.
