Spring or autumn?

Hey, hey! How are you? Are you ready for the weekend? I sure am! I will have to do some paperwork for work, but I'm planning to spend most of my time crafting. There are quite a few things I need to make ... Today was a very sleepy day - rain, rain and more rain. Perfect day to stay inside and craft; which is exactly what I did - I finally finished a card I started working on earlier this week.


I decided to have a play with Autumn happiness stamp from Whimsy stamps. I like this little dragon so much! I usually choose the papers first and colour the image afterwards, but this time was the other was around. And boy oh boy was it a challenge for me to find the papers That would match my coloured image. I don't thin I'll do this (colour the image first) again. I used lots of scraps of papers and the purple paper in thebackground is actually a recycled packaging. I'm glad I saved it - as if I knew I would need it. :P


I did the colouring with Promarkers and Faber Castell pencils. The small dots around the image were made with Ranger liquid pearls.


Ribbon, doily flowers and other embellishments all came from my stash.

That's it for today. See you again soon! :)

Enjoy the weekend! xx

  7. I'm terrible for colouring the image first then taking ages to find the papers to go with it! I think your choice of papers is lovely and those embellishments are gorgeous. I was wondering about the wings until I saw them on the little dragon, he is so cute and I'm not surprised you like using him. Thank you so much for entering the Crafty Calendar (Things with Wings) Challenge this month, lots of luck to you.
