DT inspiration for Lil pAtch of Crafty Friends challenge #28

It's new challenge day over at Lil Patch of Crafty Friends and as always it is an anything goes challenge so go and join in with some of your fabulous creations.
I am lucky enough to be using one of our wonderful sponsors for the challenge images. 
I chose this one as I wanted to have a go at layering it up.
Firstly I layered the image one on top of another and turned the flowers a little in my silhouette computer program. I coloured them all in with polychromos pencil
Here you can see the centre flower which i decided to be in the foreground is raised a little by adhering the same flower image on top of the first with foam mounting tape. Gives a great 3d look.
Here is my finished card.

Fred she said designs is offering a prize of 3 digital images for a lucky winner. They have some fabulous images some of which are floral which you too can layer up for a great creation.

Aurora 'sloquet'

hello out there in blog land. Yesterday was release day for a new wonderful digital stamp from the East Wind. It is called Aurora 'sloquet' and is so much fun to colour. You can purchase the digital stamp >> here
Sloquet is a place in Canada I believe with man made pools fed by a small, all natural, and very hot waterfall. the pools stretch from the waterfall to the large and crashing Sloquet River.
Above is my creation using the new stamp. I started off colouring it with copics and finished off with polychromos for extra added detail.
I made and easel card and the sentiment is computer generated. I tried to colour it as if Aurora was dipping into the springs in the late evening, hence the dark water colour.
I hope you purchase the stamp and have  a go at colouring it. 
Remember there are monthly challenges on The East Wind challenge blog>> here and also challenges on the east wind facebook page.

Aurora 'prayer'

Today's new release from The East Wind is Aurora 'prayer'.

I coloured the stamp with polychromos pencil. I have to say i loved colouring her hair :)
The frame is cut out of Sunshine kaisercraft cardstock with a cameo. The card base is kaisercraft cardstock called peacock. The sentiment is computer generated. Flowers are from my stash.
