Art Of Drawing

Hello Crafty Friends!

I am back from our little Christmas break in Chirk. The weather was good and we were able to go on a few walks in the woods surrounding the caravan site and along the beautiful Llangollen canal. We really enjoyed our alternative Christmas. As with everything in life, you never know until you tried it ....


I fancied doing something using the Life In Full Color and the Celebrate Artsy sets and started off doing some watercolour effect stamping using one of the brush stroke stamps, my MISTI and Daffodil Delight and Melon Mambo inks spritzed with water. I added my sentiment, layered on my base card and splattered with black. Next I stamped the brush and paint tube, coloured and fuzzy cut them, popped them on my card, added a little sparkle and glossy accents to the brush and finished off with a yellow sequin.



That's it from me for today! Pop over to the STAMPlorations Blog for more inspiration and to leave a comment for your entry into their prize draw.

Continue to enjoy the festive season!

  4. Love this set. I'm going to have
    to get it. Your card is great.
    Not sure where Chirk is but it's
    always good to get away from the everyday
    and do something different.
    thanks for sharing.
    Happy New Year
