Hanglar - Bug i kruka


This is different from my normal style as I tried to make the papers look older with tearing and staining. Believe me this was so difficult for me as I just hate my papers getting creased or torn! I am so pleased with how this turned out though. I coloured this beautiful Hanglar stamp with my Prisma colour pencils with sansador and paper stumps to blend. I also used my Sakura stardust pen for added detail. The Gorgeous papers are a 12" x 12" scrapbook paper by Daisy Bucket (Summer Cottage Window box). The sentiment is by Stamping up. Other accessories: Prima flowers, PM gems, String, Button, fibres & brads.

Hope you are all having a great weekend and I would like to thank you so much for all the Wonderful comments you leave on my blog !!

My oh my this is just stunning, the colours look so vibrant and your colouring is perfection. I use Whispers brush pens for my images but I think you may have just converted me to using those pencils.Thank you for the inspiration. Louise xx
