Beautiful You Silhouette with Rainbow Inking

Good morning!
I held a class at my home a few weeks ago and I just wanted to share one of the cards we made. I totally love creating this kind of background so I thought I would get the ladies to get all inky!


To create the background I simply used sponges to swipe colour across the card. I then stamped my dancing lady from Beautiful You, and coloured her with my Basic Black Stampin' Write Marker to make her into a silhouette. I then added a few strokes of Wink Of Stella to give a little shimmer to the card.


The sentiment was stamped in Versamark and then I added various Stampin' Emboss Powders to create the rainbow effect.
*TIP - I masked off the word 'gorgeous' on the stamp using a Post-It note so I had the sentiment I wanted.

I love using this technique...have you ever tried it? If not, give it a go and let me know how you got on!

Hope to see you soon!

Helloooo Beautiful You!!

Well hello to you all! 
Yes, I admit, it's been a while. A long while in fact! Not to make excuses but life has been somewhat busier over the last year or two, as Keiran now does activities every evening, and that means when I get in there are things that need doing around the house, or I'm just shattered! That on top of all the studying I had been doing and it left me little time for 'myself'! 

I have managed to do a little crafting recently though, and I'd like to show you one of my makes, if I may?

As you probably know by now, there is a wonderful stamp set in the Spring/Summer catalogue called Beautiful You, and to be fair, you've probably seen lots of samples using it, but I'm sharing one of mine today anyway! I really love this set...it's just so elegant and versatile!


I decided I would rather like to see this carefree lady dancing under the sun, on a notebook. I used the brilliant new Watercolor Pencils and an Aqua Painter to colour this lovely lady. I do love these pencils! They have bought back my love for colouring!


The pencils are ideal for colouring on more porous mediums as they don't soak in and become difficult to blend like wet ink does, so they were perfect for this notebook with it's slightly rough cover.


I used Kinda Eclectic to add the sun, and see the shimmery sparkle? I created that using my clear Wink Of Stella pen...subtle but effective!

Don't forget that it is Sale-A-Bration until the end of March, which means for every £45 you spend with me, you get to choose a FREE item from the SAB brochure!! That's for EVERY £45!! So there really is no limit to the freebies! 

If you would like me to send you a Spring/Summer catalogue and Sale-A-Bration Brochure, free of charge, please just contact me and I will be more than happy to do so! 

And if you would like to order any of the items I used today, please click through to my shop over there on the right >>>>>>>>

Right, I'm off to work now, but I hope to be back soon with another lovely project!

Happy Sunday!

Pinkies Spring/Summer Blog Hop



Thank you for joining us on another Pinkies Blog Hop! We're showcasing lots of gorgeous projects using products from the new Stampin' Up!® Spring/Summer Catalogue. Simply use the buttons at the end of each post to keep hopping!


I have decided to use the first stamp set and die bundle that popped out at me when I first set eyes on the new Spring/Summer catalogue!



Isn't this heart just gorgeous?? I fell in love straight away, but I didn't want to use it as a Valentine, so I decided it would be perfect for Mother's Day! The bundle is The Bloomin' Love Stamp set and the Bloomin' Heart Thinlit die. I attached the heart using only the middle bit so it left plenty of dimension. The tiny leaves from the set are stamped in Pear Pizzazz, and used Tempting Turquoise and Daffodil Delight for the extra flowers, finishing with matching Candy Dots. 


Do you see the gorgeous shimmer on some of the flowers? That was done using our brand new Clear Wink Of Stella pens... I. love. them! They are available in Gold too...eek! 
I created the sentiment using the 'happy' from Endless Birthday Wishes and Crazy About You.

There are lots of other gorgeous stamps, papers, dies and embellishments in this new Spring/Summer catalogue, so why don't you pop on over to Nicole's blog and see what gorgeous project she has created!


I hope you enjoy the hop and hope to see you again soon!
