I got happy mail when I arrived home today! I ordered these two Pure Innocence stamps from the United States. I have seen some wonderful cards made using these stamps, so just had to add them to my collection!
I decided to use them to create two cards. I made one for the Inkspirations Challenge
I coloured my image first, using my Derwent Pencils and baby oil, to make it water-colour ish.... I layered this on a piece of Night of Navy, and Island Oasis DSP and a piece of white ribbon. I stamped the celebrate with Versamark, and embossed it in white. I love how this card turned out!
Now, onto my second card. I used the Mojo Monday sketch
Now, to be completely honest, I don't like this card... Something seems wrong with it... I coloured my PI image using the same method as above, then fussy cut it out. I added a little bit of Glossy accents on her shoes to make them look shiny. I used more Island Oasis DSP, and Turquoise, White and Daffodil C/Stocks.
Let me know what you think of these two cards?
Love the Island Oasis + Night of Navy combination! Very pretty! I am so glad I added that DSP to my order today! The Princess card is soooo cute. I think you are being to hard on yourself. Perhaps some embossing on the turquoise might have given it a lift? But ... it is pretty perfect just as it is! Hugs xxaxx
ReplyDeleteHi Jess,
ReplyDeleteI like both your cards - simplicity totally eludes me, but you've got it down pat. The colours look great too.
awesome stamps, love what you did!!!
ReplyDeletethey are the cutest things ever!
These are so cute! I love PI stamps. :-) I agree with Andrea, you're being too hard on yourself! You could try deepening the colouring on her? Then it would pop out more over the DSP. :-)
