Reindeer

hello there (waving).
It's that time of year again when we all hunt down new stamps for our Christmas cards and the Aussie store Ericraft Stamps has two new cute reindeer digital stamps available and they are currently on sale (until the next new stamp comes along).

This one is 'Reindeer' which you can find here 

this one is 'Reindeer laying down', which you can find here 


As you can see I have created a card using 'Reindeer'.
I colured the stamp with polychromos pencil on smooth watercolour paper.
The papers are from Kaisercraft as well as the die i used for the holly circle frame.

Be sure to drop by my facebook group today (18th November) as I am giving out a special freebie for all those that join my group. 
There is also a special discount code you can use to get 10% off digi stamps in my store from today, 18th November until the 25th of November.

Thanks for dropping by,
Toodles, Erica

Toby

Hi there (waving)

 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 Toby whom we had to put to sleep a few months back. He was 18yrs old, super furry and cuddly. An all rounder great dog.

I printed my stamp on kraft paper and away i went using my pencils. here you can see the polychromos white and inktense white


Getting into his black collar and eye


Adding fur to his face


Two eyes looking at me :)


Bit of a tip to get really dark black is to go over with indigo and then black on top of that.
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.


Onto his front leg


Here he is all coloured. One gorgeous tri coloured border collie :)


I am going to now put this into a frame and hang it in my craft room :)

Bunny and Daffodils

Easter is on its way so i had to draw up a sweet little bunny and some flowers to make some cards with. I made the daffodils seperate so customers could layer them with the bunny if they wanted a field of daffodils.
Bunny turned out rather sweet if i may say so myself :p
I coloured the digital stamp with copic markers. It took quite a while to get the fur looking furry.



I used kaisercraft cardstock and patterned paper to make the card and embellished with a couple of stick on pearls.
So here is my first Easter card of the season. Now to decide who i will post it to :)

Thanks for dropping by.
