Sylvia Zet Whimsy Wee Florist


Good morning! Thanks for popping by. Well I had a late nighter last night- I had all intentions of just colouring up this cutie but couldn't stop there- I had to finish it to a card! Another one of Slyvia Zet's digi's called Wee Florist. You can get her here from Whimsy Stamps. WOW was her hair a challenge!!! I am not the best colouring artist to start with, but add layers of hair and I spent ages just on her hair (haha sounds familiar in real life- spending ages on hair!!) but I got there in the end.... phew!!!
So onto the card ...... The DP is another Authentique paper called "Stroll". The buckles are cut using Tim Holtz die called "Hardware Findings". The lovely flowers and moonstone brads are from WOC and the ribbon is from my stash.
I have added drops of dimension magic to the roses, spots of liquid pearl to the corners, and brushed her at with my spica glitter pen.
Thanks for stopping by, Take care and stay safe XOX Tania

Krista Smith Whispy fairy

Good afternoon. Today I have a new digi stamp I found by Saturated Canary (Krista Smith) called "Whispy". You can find digi's in her etsy shop here they do sell out quick, but be persistent because I find she does relist quickly. I'm totally in love with her big eyes- just captivating!!!
I went to my local scrapbooking shop Arnolds and couldn't resist buying my first copics.....I only bought a couple to test the waters ( here Ive used the aqua colours and purples) the rest of the colouring is using my prisma's. I will be buying more (a couple at a time- they can be very expensive- but well worth the effort) so cant wait to get skin tones and hair tones! The papers I used are magnolia and kaisercraft on aqua bazzil. The ribbon- its a secondhand piece- you know how you can get soaps and lotions in wire hanging baskets as gifts??? well this ribbon is off one of those from christmas!!!! the colours were just perfect :0) If I can recycle something I will!!!! The flowers are prismas and wild orchid crafts (the purple WOC were cream, but I coloured them with my copics (you cant do that with prismas LOL!!!). The centre of the bow is also from WOC and is delicious moonstone brad. Stickles and liquid pearls...viola!!!!!
