Merry Christmas...

 Morning folks...

I can't believe how fast this year is going in so far...and almost time for my first wee break up north this year.  I cannot wait, it's seems like forever since we have been on holiday, anyway not long to go. I am hoping to catch some good photos of the local Moray wildlife...it's just amazing but before that it's time for a new challenge over on the Sweet Stampin Challenge Blog.

The theme is "Christmas in April".  

I've actually had this stamp for a couple of years I think and yep..never been used so thought it would be perfect for this challenge.

I inked up with archival ink and coloured with derwent pencils, added the sentiment and a couple of enamel dots...kept it simple!

Hope you like it.

Party like a Puffin...

 

Hey folks, I thought I would share this wee card I made today, I really haven't spent much time lately on my cards and really need to get back into it...anyway I did spend ages colouring this one.

I stamped the image using archival ink and coloured with derwent inktense pencils, I did do quite a few layers to make the image stand out.  Those sand eels were a challenge as I didn't have the right shade of grey or silver so I coloured with the grey I had and once dry went over with white which lightened them a bit, I then did a mix of blue and violet...not that you can really see.

I added some splashes, dots and gems to finish.

Hope you like it.
