Vintage White

This is the last image for the month from Aurora Wings our sponsor of the month over at Outlawz Sketch.

I've used Clara today, you can find her here.

The image has been coloured with Copics.  I wanted her to have a white vintage styles dress and I've achieved this using warm greys.  The pop of colour has been given to the nutcracker toy she's holding.

Around the images I've scattered some white embossing enamel.

The edges of the image and all my papers have been distressed with a Tonic Solutions tool.  The image has also been distressed with Vintage Photo ink from Tim Holtz to take away some white.

Here's our sketch for the next two weeks.

My design paper is from Maya Design and I've also used some dark red card.

Behind the image your can see some cream satin ribbon edged in gold.  I've finished it off with a wooden sentiment from Hobby Craft and a tiny wooden holly embellishment that I found at the bottom of one of my boxes ;)

Thanks for popping by for a look today, we hope to see you at the challenge

Wendy from All Dressed Up has re-released some images in her shop this month.  I'm sharing a little inspiration with Full of Grace today.  You can find more inspiration by the Dressy Girls on the blog and in the Facebook Group today.

I've made a monochrome card for my inspiration using Copics and given her a pop of colour with a stripe in her hair!

To add a little interest I've added a few sequins.

The design paper is from 13Arts and I've also used some black card.

Stamping for a change :)

Our theme for this month over at All Dressed up in the Facebook Group is PEARLS AND / OR GEMS. 

I'm honoured to be able to share with you one of the new stamps which you can purchase through Crafteezee.  Find them here.  This one is called Love to Dance & you can find it here.  when I stamped this one I missed out the ballet shoes with the ink and it came out perfectly :)

The image has been coloured with Copics, I've then used some Vintage photo ink from Tim Holtz and distressed the edges with a Tonic Solutions tool.  I then scattered some embossing enamel in two colours.  You can see at the right on the image I've used a couple of brass corners.

My designs papers have also been distressed, they're from Lemoncraft and Maja Design.

To the left of the image your can see some Imogen lace and pearl string which can be found at Crafteezee.

To finish off I've made a sentiment out of Tim Holtz Bog Chat stickers

Hope you like my inspiration for today.  Don't forget we also have the challenge blog as well as the Facebook Group.  You can find it here
