I haven't made one before- a pretty cool thing to be asked to do.<br />
<br />
I knew straight away I wanted to make a pretty card, using soft colours.<br />
<br />

I've stamped the image, and then watercolored using pencils, I've also added some watercoloring to the background, and stamped some scripted french text, to add a bit of detailing.<br />
<br />
Also a bow and a clingy 100 ;-)<br />
<br />
I love how its turned out- hopefully so will the recipient.<br />
<br />
I'm entering the card into the following challenges:<br />

Once I started creating I couldn't stop- 3 journal pages.<br />
I haven't created anything in my journal for probably over 6 months, it felt great- very freeing.<br />
<br />
Created with Acrylic paint, Distress inks, stencils pen and ink.<br />
<br />
Beneath each photo, I've shared some of the words that were channelled at the time.<br />
My other <a href="http://twinflamejourney.blogspot.co.nz/2016/02/new-moon-journalling.html">blog</a>, contains the words in more detail.<br />

I'm absolutely thrilled with my new Unity Stamps. I had time today for a quick play and created this funky tag. I just adore this lotus stamp.<br />
<br />
Background created by sponging, spraying with Dylusions , stencilling and little touch of my fav go to, gold acrylic paint.<br />
We are having an absolute crazy heat wave here at the moment in my corner of New Zealand, so I'm enjoying my bright colours still, hoping it brings you some warmth if you are still in a chilly place- though I hear El Nino is doing crazy weather things all over.<br />
<br />

Just sharing a quick pocket page this evening, featuring the time late last year when we did a sponsored 10km walk for breast cancer- it was a great evening, and more importantly we raised $355 !!<br />
<br />
The page obviously had to feature a lot of pink!<br />

<br />
I confess that I was really unsure what to do or where to start, faced with the dark brown masonite - I'm often left panicking .... So I thought I'll just paint all the parts white with acrylic paint, so thats what I did. I then added some stamping with the script stamp and some words from a couple of Paper Artsy Stamp sets.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
Next I added some wash tape, to add more depth. Finally I added some colour with gelato and gold acrylic paint.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
Then the fun part- the decorating, by this point I realised I wanted to create a softer divine feminine doll.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi6oj0_X-rQLob9MriZ_jmg12aBtaaoXzJeCnVsrramzFPonJYArwoLSPFRlNF3XZpLeIglZzWzmYSs9THszPyQRHN7DN56X4PF-Ag_AON7qSCJMOmJIZ3ATtvgBboG7ZO1XMOfUSrNn7Y/s1600/debsantos4.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi6oj0_X-rQLob9MriZ_jmg12aBtaaoXzJeCnVsrramzFPonJYArwoLSPFRlNF3XZpLeIglZzWzmYSs9THszPyQRHN7DN56X4PF-Ag_AON7qSCJMOmJIZ3ATtvgBboG7ZO1XMOfUSrNn7Y/s400/debsantos4.jpg" width="300" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
As you can see I added hearts, pearls, flowers and leaves to create the soft look.<br />
<br />
I'm entering my doll into the following Challenges:<br />
<br />

I hope that all my Stateside friends affected by the storm are safe and warm, and wishing everyone a lovely weekend.<br />

The tag has been created by sponging and stenciling the background, adding stamps, pewter distress spray and stenciled gold acrylic paint ( my fav detail go to at the moment).</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I've then added some sequin turquoise bling as ribbon.</div>

The tag was then attached to the file. The file started as a plain pale pink folder. I've used Dylusion sprays, Distress Ink sponging and stenciling, and then stamping and more acrylic paint to create the background. As a final touch I added mod podge to the tag, it will make it a little more resilant but also makes the colours pop.</div>

Great to be just really getting into all things creative again- feels great.<br />
Great theme over at <a href="https://sundaypostcardart.wordpress.com/?blogsub=confirming#blog_subscription-3">Sunday Postcard Art </a>their new Theme-this week is Fire/Flames<br />
<br />
Just had to play along, just like all my new rubber stamps that haven't seen much or any ink, I have a whole stash of digital goodies form Mischief Circus also needing some airing!<br />
<br />
I've gone with a bit of a Femme Fatale valentine feel ;-)<br />
<br />
All digital elements from Mischief Circus.<br />

This card is very different to the first card I shared with you. The background is Graphic 45 paper as our some of the details, also some vintage lace. I've had this chicken stamp in my stash for probably a couple of years, but it had never seen ink...<br />

I love how this card has a rustic simplicity- which is exactly what I was after. and i think it could be used as a male or female greeting card.<br />
<br />
I'm finishing the post with some photos of my chickens from earlier today, they are happy chickens, but are already starting to moult their feathers ( its a bit early )<br />

To Create the background, I used white acrylic paint, and then used a stencil to pull some of the paint, I then did the same with some gold acrylic paint, Drying with a heat tool, created more texture. I then stamped with some Distress inks, Abandoned Coral and Black Soot. Before adding the main stamped image on another piece of cardstock.</div>

Today I have another few posts to share with you, first up is a card I've created with a pretty soft feminine background.<br />

<br />
I've created the background by sponging and stencilling with Distress inks, and then stamping, and adding some lace and velvet ribbon.<br />
I've then stamped the main image from Crafty Individuals on a similar background, cut it out and attached onto the background with foam tape, to give a bit of dimension.<br />
<br />
I'm entering this card into the following challenges:<br />
