TPS - Easter

With Easter fact approaching out theme this week at THE PAPER SHELTER is of course EASTER.

I used the image Easter Masterpiece for my card.

I have coloured the image with Copics and also a little stardust pen for the glasses, paintbrush and fusion, which gives a lovely sparkle.

I found some cute easter paper in my stash for the background and finished with some colour co-ordinated card and gems.

Toadstall House

Had a little play with my Lavinia Stamps, I have such a large collection but rarely have the time to get all inky with them, so this was really enjoyable.

The images are stamped in Versavine Clair and coloured with Polychromas Pencils.  I have used sparkle Posca Pens on the Flowers.

Inspired by a Tutorial by Jo Rice.

TPS - All Things New

I hope you have all had a lovely Christmas break, we are back with our first challenge of the year over at The Paper Shelter.

Our theme this week is ALL THINGS NEW.  I was a little stumped at first with this one, you have the obvious new baby, new home, new year, but I wanted to do a particular image Lullaby Moon, after a bit of thinking I thought "What is better than a new day", so here is my card, coloured with Copics.

I die cut some stars and found the quote on line.
