It’s no secret that I am totally in love with the stamps over at Sweet Pea. And I have been busy coloring the stamp that I have from them. I have a couple works in progress, but I just had to get this one done… it has been in my head for a while and I didn’t want to lose the inspiration! I needed to do a blue version. She’s the Winter Watcher, so it was just begging for blue! I used mixed media this time around… Twinkle H20’s and colored pencils. I am so pleased with how it all came out. Everything blended together so well… take a look at the cat’s eye! Remember, you can click on any of the photos to see them bigger! I put the card together a bit differently. As you may have noticed, I have the stamped image coming off of the card. Yeah, it may be a little trickier to mail, but I love that it’s unexpected. I just didn’t want to do another vertical card, and i really wanted those mats on there. I added some fiber and some awesome foiled paper from K & Co. See the foil shine??? I am having such a great time coloring this one image in… but I definitely need to get some more stamps from Sweet Pea! Have you seen them? And you must check out their Design Team!
