Morning peeps a very foggy start to this morning with no ferries running. I was up early this morning crafting! The early bird catches the worm so they say.....or catches an early morning phone call from a very clever cutie pie called Maya called my mobile this morning followed by a very apologetic text from Gayle roflol who now thinks I'm a nutter crafting at 7.30 in the morning!!
Today I'm sharing Oscar with you from the Sugar Nellie Home Grown range.
Oscar has been coloured using Promarkers and he has been layered for effect. This really does show off how fabulous Sugar Nellie stamps are for attention to detail from the artists. I stamped out extra images and cut out the leaves to extend the tree branch....
The background has been created using a product Karen featured on the Sugar Nellie blog a while back. It is the latest tool from Stampin Up called Color Spritzer Tool. Mine however is called the Blitzer and I bought it....wait for it.....26 years ago.......yes you did hear right 26 years ago while on holiday in Blackpool. It did pay off to hoard this........lol
...........you attach and secure your pen into the holder in my case a Promarker. I made a template by cutting out a circle using a nestie on card, placed it on my card and started squeezing. I used 2 colours to acheive the desired effect...Vanilla first and then honeycombe.
I'm entering this card into a few challenges today ~
I Love Promarkers ~ Keep it Sweet & Simple
Creative Card Crew ~ For Men
The Shabby Tearoom ~ Photo Inspiration
Well I'm off to finish another special project I've been working on.....millions to do guys millions to do..catch up soon.
Whatever you are doing today......enjoy! Ali x
