Exciting News!!!!

Good morning - very early for me but I'm here in spirit if not out of my bed yet!

I have some exciting news to share I am a new design team member for Scrapper's Delights. I have joined their New Release team and this weekend there are special offers happening as Scrapper's Delights have reached 3,000 likes on Facebook.

The new release is all about Steam Punk and if your a follower of my blog you will know that Steam punk is not one of my strongest themes so I used my image as a Victorian Lady.

Meet Lady Constance

She looks so elegant so I chose not to distract from this in my design

I colored her up using alcohol markers then chose the colors of her dress to design the rest of the card. Using cream and burgundy card for my mats and die cut flowers. After matting my card base and image I added cream lace to the edge of the image before adhering this to the card. after fixing the flowers in place I added crystal drops to the centers and to the right hand corner of the card.

Ingredients used:

Scrapper's Delights Lady Constance Digital Stamp

Spectrum Noir Markers

Copic Markers

Spectrum Noir Ultra smooth Card

Cream card

Burgundy card

April Showers

Good afternoon - April is renowned for being showery - but as the saying goes "April showers brings forth May flowers" so the rain is necessary! 

Mollie has a little ditty she sings when it rains:

"Rain rain go away come again another day"

The Faery Ink image I am using today just reminds me of this - Fable April Showers isn't she just adorable? 

She looks as though she is dancing through the puddles

I chose to use the version of her without the rain drops and colored her up in bright pinks and lilacs

 As usual I used my alcohol markers in my favorite colors. I then matted her and my card base with a bright pink card. I chose some coordinating design paper from my stash and matted this onto the base before adding my image. 

I then die cut the adorable umbrellas in matching colors and adhered these to the design. A few pink pearls just finished off the design.

April Showers Fable is one of this months new releases in the Faery Ink online store along with others which my teamies and I will be showcasing on the Facebook fan page this month.
