I was in the mood for a bit of colouring in today, so had another play with my new Cupcake Kiki stamp - this time, I watercoloured her, using my Stampin' Up! markers and an aquapainter. Using a white gel pen, I added a few little details - stripes on Kiki's stockings, and dots on her top (as well as highlights on her hair baubles, and in the flower centre).
This card will be going to someone we know who recently had a really nasty fall, and is 'out of action' for several weeks. Hopefully it'll put a smile on her face.
Stamps: Cupcake Kiki (CC Designs), Teeny Tiny Sentiments
Card: Crumb Cake, Early Espresso, Watercolour Paper
Ink: Tuxedo Black Memento inkpad, Early Espresso stampin' pad and marker, Crumb Cake, Soft Suede, Blush Blossom, Pretty in Pink, Night of Navy, and Baja Breeze markers
Other: Perfect Polka Dots embossing folder, aquapainter, Nestabilities, Rain Drops heart embellishment, Word Window punch, stampin' sponge, sponge dauber, Signo White gel pen, Baja Breeze Patterns DSP (retired)
I'll be back to "normal programming", showcasing Stampin' Up! stamps, tomorrow. Please come back to visit my blog over the weekend, as I will be taking part in a blog hop with some stamping friends. We've got some AWESOME Christmas projects to show you!!
