No Line Colouring.....A first!

I've had Penny Blacks - Pop Pop Poppy stamp for so long now...Its been one of those stamps where I've known what I wanted to do with it, but never really had the time to think about how to actually do it! 

So after a little Pinterest inspiration and some video tutorials I'd saved up on this colouring technique I decided that it was time to give it a go...No Line Colouring! 

I think if I do decide to try this technique again its going to be on an easier image! I very rarely have time to colour these days so it felt like I was learning a whole bunch of things and the stamp was so intricate that I really had no idea where to start! But I'm very happy with how it came together and there is something really relaxing about just colouring in. 

Stamp: Penny Black - Pop Pop Poppy
Dies: My Little Paper World - Rectangle nesting -TRIBAL
Prismacolor/gamsol on Kraft card stock.
Ink: Distress Ink Antique Linen

A quick reminder that My Little Paper World Dies are on Sale over the Easter weekend (Ends tonight) and that I am running a competition on my facebook group. All you have to do is join and you could win a set of corner dies!! That easy...



It took me a few days to finish this off, so I've added some photos below of my slow progress. 






Have you tried No Line Colouring?? I encourage you to try it...at least once! :)

Happy Crafting!

Growing in Unity: Day 1

Image
Yippee!! After waiting 11 months, 10 days, it's finally my week to share my Unity cards. 5 whole days of inspiration is coming your way...oh! and lets not forget the sponsored giveaway by Unity at the end of my week - a grab bag with 25 random stamps! My first card I decided to use one of my favourite sets - I actually combined two (no, three!) Unity sets that really go well together. How do you use your Unity stamps? Would you mix and match them? When I first starting stamping (15 years ago) the thought of mixing sets would make me cringe - but now... no problems! I think it's a great way to make the most of your stamp collection. Here are my cards using Unity: Tumbleweed Houses , On My Way and Gypsy Journal (sentiment only) I coloured the images using a few of my ZIG brush pens and cut them out with my silhouette (for those who are visiting me for the first time - I try to avoid fussy cutting!) I added a few sewing machine details and adhered the hous...

A Super Quick Card!

Just sharing another card I made (with the help of master 2 1/2yo). Stamp is unity -  Vase with stripes.  C oloured with prisma pencils and gamsol. A super quick card to make as master 2 1/2yo did most of the work. I just added some washi tape, sequins, twine and a stamp I coloured in during the week (for practice)  :) Entered into  ARTastic Inspiration Photo Challenge . Link to Unity Friends with Flair. SSS - Anything Goes Challenge Thanks for stopping by.  Samantha

A Spring Inspired Card...

Image
This week (or should I say the last few weeks) have been super crazy busy! We got good news, my Hubby renewed his work contract with the option to move back home to Adelaide (which of course we jumped at!) So...we are now packing our belongings in to boxes and the worst room is...come on! have a guess! :) Yup!! My craft room... But its mostly packed up, with the exception of a few stamps, paper packs, a handful of embellishments and my copic markers.  Last week, in between all the craft room packing (I got distracted a few times!) I created this card, its from Unity's ...bunches of love stamps. I decided to make a few, I hate having left over paper, so I tend to create a card (generally for someone's birthday coming up) and then duplicate it so I have a stash of cards for those occasions you forget someones birthday coming up!  This was the perfect stamp set to do this! While stamping, I wished I had that misti tool Ive seen a few times now through youtube videos,...
