It's all purple!!! : )



so.... here is another card that I have made for the Spectrum Noir challenge (as well as a card for my mum's friend). I got some new Kanban dress stamps and had to use them and feathers- I just wasn't sure how exactly! : )

I really enjoyed making this. 

I used:

Purples- dress, flowers: PL2, PL4, PL5, LV1, LV2, LV3
Grey- Belt, feathery top: IG1, IG6, IG8 

black lace
lots of gems, 

patterned vellum for the background with black card underneath.

purple and white twine to attach a wooden key which I coloured using IG8.

There is also some glaze on the belt, but I really couldn't take a good picture of that!


I have also used a tiny bit of FS2 on  the belt buckle, but its really not that noticable!

I hope you like!

Another card for the Spectrum Noir Challenge.

So..... I have made a new card for this challenge. I'm not sure if I can enter more than 1, but it was too cute to not enter!! I have tried to cut the Gorguss girl our and make it look like she's actually sat on a swing.

I hope you like........

Crafty Time for Spectrum Noir Challenge....

Crafty Time for Spectrum Noir Challenge. 

So I've been really lazy lately and not made many cards- I blame the nice weather we had! So now that the weather has gone back to the usual wind and rain I have made this lovely card for the Spectrum Noir May Challenge ...... 

It's a bigger card than I normally make (8 x 8 inch) 

I was sceptical as I thought that it would look stupid, but I now prefer bigger cards so I can stick more gems, flowers and ribbons on them! 

I used all my purple Spectrum Noir to colour the girl and the flowers. I also used Skin tones and browns for the hair.

colours used-
Purple- PL2, PL4, PL5, LV1, LV2, LV3
Brown- EB5, TN2
Skin tones- FS2, FS3, TN2
Red Heart- DR5





I hope you like this!! : )
