Earn your Stripes.........

Today is my first as a DT member for Southern Girls Challenge.  Our theme for this fortnight is "Earn your Stripes"  We got to work with some images from our sponsor "A & T Digital design - home of Emerald Faeries" and some Inklings from Artfull Crafts



 


For my card I used "Boo and Snookie"

I used Copic markers to colour the image and then used a Wonky Rectangle die to cut it out.  The orange striped background is a Hero Arts stamp inked up with a Distress ink.  Added some paper flowers and gems and a striped ribbon bow.  The sentiment is also a Hero Arts stamp.

For my Inkling sample I used one of the yet to be released images.  Hop over to the Artfull Crafts blog and find out all about the Inklings.  They are fun to work with.


I coloured the image with Copics and added some Stickles.  The background is made with some Simon Says stamps inked up with Hero Arts Neon blue inl.  The Happy Birthday is a Hero Arts stamp and the little rope bow is from the same Simon Says Set as the stripes and anchors.  Just love this little image.

Hop over to Southern Girls Challenge and add your striped projects.  Would love to see you there.

Oh what a great start to your DT term - these are marvellous cards Dawn.
Can you get the neon inks here now, or did you get them from o/seas?
