The beauty of Nature

I saw this beautiful image on the CraftsUprint site and loved it so much that I decided to buy it.  I didn't really like the background that came with the image so I added some of my own papers.

I chose one of the papers from the new Stamperia Amazonia collection and after inking all of the edges I backed everything with dark brown card stock.  I used foam pads to adhere the image for dimension, there is also a decoupage layer, I also added a sentiment that came with the image, there are several to chose from.

Thank you for popping in today - please leave a comment so that I can come and visit you.

The Sun's in my Heart

It's time for a new challenge at The Paper Shelter and the theme for the next fortnight is Ribbon and/or Lace.  I have used this fun digital stamp called The Sun's In My Heart - as you probably know each set consists of one inked stamp, one coloured stamp, one matching paper and one composition.

I coloured her with my Spectrum Noir Illustrator pens and used papers from the Memory Box Valise collection.

I used both ribbon and lace and added some die cut flowers and gems.
