English rose stamp number 2

Yesterday i showed you 3 cards simply stamped and coloured with my Kaisercraft English Rose stamp. Today I am showing you what happened next with the same stamp – I stepped it up a little and did some “what ifs” so – the papers I used were Bo Bunny Weekend market, and I stamped a script stamp ( Stamp It Butterfly script but any would do) across the whole of the beige coloured patterned paper. I stamped Post Card across the top ( Prima stamp) and stamped a stamp ( My minds eye Rosy Everything set) onto cardstock, cut it out and stuck it on the corner. You will also notice that I mix and match my stamp sets – just cos they come in the same packet doesn’t mean you can only use them together!Now I stamped my English Rose on the centre of the card and coloured it with my little pots of perfect pearls powder. For those of you following closely ( and I know there are a few of you because I have had e-mails asking about colouring my images, and so I am putting together a short video stepping out the methods I use)the way I did this – I hand coloured my image with a Versamark pen, and then used a paintbrush to paint the powder on. The beauty with this technique is you don’t have to be perfect – the powder only sticks to where the versamark pen has been.And the flowers have a glorious shine to them!Today I have made great inroads on the male card front and have lots to photo for future blogs! Til tomorrow…..
