Paintable ...

Prima Paintable paper
Inktense
Bought from Running with scissors
Vintage Image downloaded from here



I am entering this layout into Ruth's Vintage Challenge Blog - A Vintage Affair. This month we had to incorporate a downloaded image from Shabby Chic Papirskatter blog which can be found here. The image of the little girl Ruth had already featured on her blog and I thought oooh yeah!! perfect colours to match in with what I had in mind for a layout! This is the second layout that I have done exactly the same (except for the vintage image), would you believe it, even in the journaling I made the same mistake! The first layout is going to be for Aimee's album and this is going into the family album!

Ruth has also set up a Ning site dedicated to Vintage which can be found here and her Vintage blog A Vintage Affair can be found here!

I decided to keep this card really simple, as I don't really know how to do boy cards. This is stamp originally had Edwin holding an egg with a little chick peeking out! But I wanted to use him for a birthday card, so I cut out the egg. I used a Penny Black stamp that had 3 gift boxes, I used the smaller of the boxes. I but a 3d foam pad on the back and placed it where the egg should be! Works pretty good I think!

Rose Fairy!

Liquid Pearl - Petal Pink
Crystal Stickles
Prima Flower
all Bought from Running With Scissors
Lace, Pearl string from Boyles
Paper - free from magazine

Anyone who knows me, knows that I am a sucker for Fairies, Butterflies, Dragonflies and all whimsical creatures! So when Tracey got the Flower Fairy Sets in the shop, I just HAD to get the Rose Fairy Set!

The only complaint that I have about the stamp set is that the images are soo close together I was breaking into a sweat cutting them out!




This is also the first card that I have made using the Stamp set and the Inktense pencils, and I must say I am chuffed at how the colouring has come out! I am not too happy with how I put the card together!

Prima Paintables and Inktense

I decided to go big for my second attempt at Inktense!

They were perfect for the big background colour and I would defiantly recommend them for that sort of work!

I was afraid that the colours might be to wishy-washy for the strong colours in the photos, but I think they all work really well together




Oh BTW these are photos from my Cherry Blossom shoot this year!
