Fathers Day Again

And another card made for my basket of Fathers Day cards. Many of my customers who come to class say that doing cards for men is difficult. I quite enjoy them as I like the colours usually used.

When making this card I have used some old designer paper. But how many men out there have shirts in  this sort of check? The stitching has been done by hand with a marker pen. The sentiment does lift out of the pocket and buttons are out of my large jar. I have a few more of these in different checks, I'll show you another day. The inside is blank.

A quick post today, stitched framelits again, watercolour pencils again but the stamp set is 'Mediterranean Moments'. 

Doesn't this look like somewhere you would stop for glass of something cool and refreshing.

Beautiful You returns!

Another one from my holidays. This one really shows you how bright, how you can get a good depth of colour, then fade it out. The sentiments in the set are also rather lovely. Bit of repetitive stamping here. Finished with a little daubing! 

The pencils really do give you a water coloured look. Plus sometimes when you stamp the image in momento you can get a controlled smudgy look.
