The Paper Players challenge is "Spring is in the Air". And We Love Stamping wants "Anything Stamped Spring". Here in Vancouver spring is not just snowdrops and crocuses, but a fair bit of rain, wind, and mud. So here's my spring card:
I created the background with blue and a tiny bit of brown Bister on coated cs. When dry, I stamped the woman and sentiment with black StazOn. I tried to get the puddles at the bottom of the woman on the brown part - mud puddles seem to be a big part of spring around here (and my dog loves them!). I added some grey Nuvo drops to represent raindrops but they don't show up that well in the photo.
We Love Stamping "Anything (stamped) Spring"
Supplies:
Stamps - Deep Red woman, Rosie's Roadshow sentiment
Ink - StazOn black
Paper - white and black cs, coated cs
Size - A2
Accessories - blue and brown Bister, grey Nuvo drops, fun foam
Yes that looks like Scotland too Susan x. A fabulous and unique take on the 'Spring' theme and I love it x.
ReplyDeleteThe wind has been horrible this year. That's a great card to show it. I love that image and it could be me without the hat, fishnets and heels. Maybe support socks and tennis shoes!
ReplyDeleteYou captured the blustery part of spring beautifully! I love the mix of media and the black silhouette is so stylish and fun! Thanks so much for joining us at The Paper Players!
ReplyDeleteI LOVE this! You've captured the weather perfectly with those bisters! It is exactly as it is here in the spring! Fabulous job on this including the Bister colors you chose to create it! Love the addition of the mud. I may just have to have that stamp!
