Card For Sister

Good Afternoon everyone
i have been playing with Spectrum noir pens again
i printed off several mermaids images so i had them ready to colour
  i went  brown and gold  it’s taken me all morning to get this picture sorted
just don’t know what it is.... light seems totally wrong
anyway  i quite like this one

P1040437

  added glass glitter to the mermaids tails to give that bit of  sparkle
i did do a colour chart but put it some where so good even i can't find it

coloured in with Spectrum noir pens matted with core-dination and silver mirri
the backing paper is from Nitwits the sentiment i stamped using the big and juicy Spice ink pad

New Sheena Douglass stamps

do you ever wish you were somewhere warm and sunny ?
i have been playing with some new Stamps that Sheena Douglass will be bringing to you soon
this one takes you to that hot sunny place 
where you could be sat  taking in the views sipping that chilled glass of wine listening to the birds singing
P1040375
  i decided to water colour this one onto crafters companion water colour card
core-dination card with centrua pearl card for matting layer
the grape vine is a separate stamp  on the stamp sheet
i did some masking card candi to finish off
i know i could easily see myself sat in front of that cottage door on a warm summers evening
bit of a wish you were here moment 
with the weather here in UK being shocking of late
