NEW STAMP RANGE FROM SHEENA DOUGLASS - SNEEKY PEEK DAY ONE

Hello all

I have been locked away in my craft room for a few days to create with the new range of stamps from the Queen of Inkyness. Its a fabby new range of stamps inspired by the Lake District when Sheena was there recently for a nice relaxing break. I have never been but can imagine a lovely tranquil place - if the stamps are anything to go by !!

Sheena will be on Create and Craft on Saturday 30th launching the full new range but this week we are all showcasing a wee sneeky peek of what we have come up with.  Please do check out Sheenas blog HERE and from there you can see the rest of the DTs blogs also.

Here is my sneeky peek for today


I have used a shaped card blank and covered it with paper from one of the Kanban recent paper packs. The stamp was stamped in memento and then coloured with spectrum noir makers.  I then took a piece of glossy photo card & 2 distress inks and smudged the inks on my craft mat then squidged the card all over it to create the coloured background.  The coloured stamped image i then cut close around the edges and cut it into 3 equal parts. Each part was then matted & layered  onto rainbow mirror board and dark brown/black card stock and attached to the card base. I have then added several turquoise pearl beads to various parts of the backing paper and added a brown bow.

I hope you like what i have created and it whetts your appetite to see more !!
I hope you will come back tomorrow to see another sneeky peek - im going to go now and pre schedule my weeks blog sneeky peek posts just in case i forget - if you dont do it when its fresh in your mind .... need i say more !!
