Tropical Brights

Goodness, the colours in StickerKitten's Tropical Brights collection are scrummy! I've used a couple of dies and my Gemini Junior.  The Leafy Garland is from Altenew and the butterflies are from Dove Craft. I've added in some sequins (some from SpiegelMom Scraps and some from StickerKitten.) And I LOVE how it looks all together!

for someone sweet

StickerKitten's Sweet Pastels range has these cute lollypop stamps. I added a little coloured encil to the sticks and matted the stamped pieces on some of the patterned paper from the same range. I finished off with some ribbon from my stash.

Aeroplane

Little Neph loves to sit at the window and look for aeroplanes.  This cut file was the perfect way to illustrate his current obsession. I cut a bunch of extra clouds and backed them with vellum.  I backed the aeroplane with vellum and then patterned paper.  This gives a lovely muted colour. I painted the background with my Daniel Smith watercolours.

Paint

I had so much fun with this one... got as messy with my inks as I could.  We all know inky fingers mean happy heart, right? The cut file was a FTLOPP freebie from Pretty My Page and I cut it on 3 Elle's Studio papers.  I clear gessoed over the top of them and got inky. I used the leftover patterned papers for layering and added a tonne of matte enamel dots.
