hello there (waving).</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
It's that time of year again when we all hunt down new stamps for our Christmas cards and the Aussie store <a href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/Ericraft/">Ericraft Stamps</a> has two new cute reindeer digital stamps available and they are currently on sale (until the next new stamp comes along).</div>

As you can see I have created a card using 'Reindeer'.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I colured the stamp with polychromos pencil on smooth watercolour paper.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The papers are from Kaisercraft as well as the die i used for the holly circle frame.</div>

I released a new digital stamp a couple of weeks ago and it is still currently on sale. The digi is of my awesome dog <a href="https://www.etsy.com/au/listing/610427716/digital-stamp-toby-png-image-for-cards?ref=shop_home_active_2">Toby</a> whom we had to put to sleep a few months back. He was 18yrs old, super furry and cuddly. An all rounder great dog.</div>

Bit of a tip to get really dark black is to go over with indigo and then black on top of that.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
you can see here i have used some blending with odourless thinner. It helps get the colour on the card and then i can go over with the pencils.</div>

The cardstock i used was from Kaisercraft as well as the patterned paper. The paper pad is called "All that glitters" and has some gorgeous gold foil patterned papers and pink rose patterned papers. The little sentiment also came with the paper pad.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I finished off the drawer with a kaisercraft pearl brad and some gold and white twin from <a href="http://www.whimsyfarmtwine.com.au/">Whimsy Farm Twine</a> which has some amazing colours of twine available in Australia ( i have quite a collection of their twine).</div>

Christmas is coming so I thought I better get some digital stamps made ready to use on some cards this year. It is so hard to find Christmas stamps to suit Aussie Christmas. It is usually hot, people celebrate at the beach and my family always have a BBQ with our family and friends so I figured yep a BBQ Santa image would be perfect. So here he is <a href="https://www.etsy.com/au/listing/471970142/digital-stamp-bbq-santa-jpeg-and-png?ref=shop_home_active_1">'BBQ Santa' </a>which you can purchase from my etsy store now</div>

Here is the finished card. i mounted it on kaisercraft cardstock and the pattern paper is also from kaisercraft 'christmas basecoat' with lovely native foliage. I used my own initiative and cut out some gum leaf shapes and made teeny tiny gum blossoms. Stuck a couple of star buttons on and tada.<br />

This digital stamp is called 'Love in a mist'. It is Spring in Australia and we have these pretty flowers blooming all throughout our front garden.</div>

A new release has come from <a href="https://www.facebook.com/EricraftStamps/">Ericraft Stamps</a> and it is called 'Gypsy'.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I really enjoyed drawing and colouring this image and it is available now from my etsy store via the Ericraft Stamp Shop tab up the top :)</div>
<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
So I decided to dust off the copics and have another try with them.</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I wanted a woodland feel to the image so a background was needed. I used the copics with nice decent brushstrokes to flick the colour onto the paper. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I like to give a good basecoat with copics and then i like to add finer details with pencil as you can see in the next photo.</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I really love how it turned out. The sentiment is computer generated and I think fits the image perfectly 'All those that wander are not lost'. I added a few sequins just to add a bit of sparkle :)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Perhaps the horse needs longer hair just like the gypsy vanner horses? Anyways i like it all the same.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
tada! I used polychromos to colour the image and a pencil stump to smooth the colouring to get it to look...well...smooth and blend extra nicely together.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
This is going on a shelf in my craft room I think :)</div>

It's been quite a while since I have posted but today is the day I will show you my new adventure into the crafty world. I am making my mark with designing my very own digi stamps.<br />
Here is my latest digital stamp called 'Roses'.<br />
I drew her up while I was in a melbourne motel room. I had to stay behind and look after my little girl while the boys went to watch Nitro Circus and there was nothing on TV so lucky I bought my sketch book along.<br />
<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
finished off the details with polychromos. I loooove my pencils. Still need practice with my copics to really be more confident with them.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
And here she is on the card. I have used kaisercraft cardstock and paper for the card. A martha stewart border punch for that red triangular border. The frame was cut with my cameo and the butterflies have a little dark purple kindyglitz in the centre of them :)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

I chose to colour up <a href="http://www.bugaboostamps.com/Gus-Birthday--Rocking-Chair_p_1290.html">Gus Birthday - Rocking Chair</a>. I have to say Gus and Stella are my favourite digi's from Bugaboo. They are hilariously funny and fun to add to a card.</div>

Good morning (waving)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I just had a thought that I hadn't coloured up an Aurora Wings image in aaaages so i figured no time like the present :)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I checked out their latest blog challenge and the theme they have going is 'Wish'</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I have used the 'Flora' digital stamp and flipped it horizontally. I like how it looks on a card when it is facing the opening.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I coloured the base with copics and went over with more detail with polychromos.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The sentiment is computer generated.</div>

I have coloured her firstly with the limited copics I have and then I added some extra details with polychromos pencils. I so love the bright pink hair against the black as a contrast with a hint of mint, don't you?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The lacey cut out I did on my cameo and I heat embossed the edge with gold powder. The cardstock and paper used is from Kaisercraft 'All that glitters' collection.<br />
