What's new

Morning all, it's time for our mid way inspiration at We Love Stamping and Stamping Sensations, our themes are New and I Spy with prizes from Tonic, Whimsy and Visible Image.

My 'New' is a recent purchase of an Andy Skinner stamp and I convinced the little boy has a New Kitten! Stamped, and coloured, then a stencilled wall and a Lavinia tree to build a little scene with him out playing with his new kitten. Would like to link this one to Stencil Fun where the optional extra is Four Legs.

I've two B's, the first above for Blooms, this one using Visible Image Colourful Life and Precious Life stamped together to form one stem of flowers onto a masked central panel, a few additional splats stamped to extend the design, the flowers coloured and some soft stencilling in the background. 

B for Beautiful and Blooms on this one. Snowdrops always herald the arrival of Spring Flowers and often popping up through frosty or snowy ground, just as mine are doing here with a flurry of snow coming down. They are AALL and Create, stamped, covered with masking fluid and ink applied to build up the background and flicked with water. After removing the masking fluid I coloured with a white pen, a couple of Lavinia sticker words and Posca pen flicked over to create snow. Glitter applied to the tops of flowers and ground. Hoping this fits one or two challenges at Inkspirational Shades of Blue and Colour Hues Blue and White.
