Flamin-go Girl!

Hello

Hope you had a wonderful weekend. Xx

Today's post for Bumbleberry Papercrafts  is using the ever cute Flamingo Together  by Lawn Fawn

Also used:
Distress Oxides: Picked Raspberry, Spiced Marmalade, Fossilized Amber, Worn Lipstick
Resist pen
Circle die




I first drew circles, swirls etc onto a panel of card with my resist pen
I then applied the Distress Oxides to a glass mat, spritzed with water then mopped up the ink on to the card.
The trees were stamped in the Oxides.
This was then matted onto coloured card and adhered to card blank
The Flamingo was stamped in Worn Lipstick DO, coloured in with a water brush and cut out. It was adhered to a circle die cut
The flowers were stamped randomly around the Flamingo, before adhering circle either foam pads

I hope you enjoyed looking through today's post

Hello everyone

Hope you're all well and having a lovely weekend
I've been having a play with my stamps from Bumbleberry Papercrafts

This set is so versatile and can be combined  with any dies/stamps in your crafty stash

I used:

  • I used a green kuretake clean colour pen with a water brush to create the grass, then adhered fence
  • I cut out flower dies and coloured in with Kuretake clean colour pens and a water brush and adhered behind fence
  • The characters were stamped in Smokey Grey versafine ink,  coloured with the pens and a water brush, then cut out
  • Adhere with 3d glue gel to create dimension 
  • Stamp sentiment in Smokey Grey versafine to complete
I hope you liked today's make and it's inspired you to use this set with all the other things in your crafty stash
