Green....

So we do not celebrate St Patrick's day here in Holland but that doesn't mean I can't play with these cute stamps from Kate Hadfield! I colored the cards with the Spectrum Noir Triblend, Illustrators and Classique alcohol markers and Backgrounds are created with help from the Gelpress and Spectrum Noir Opaque inkpads.  

You can find the set here.

You can find it here.

Ao I would love to play a couple of challenges with my St Patrick's day cards....

Hello Autumn...

Hello Autumn and sad goodbye to a Summer that never really started here in the Netherlands :)

So for my card today I used this cute stamp set by Kate Hadfield Design called 

Walk in to the woods...

I colored them with the Spectrum Noir Triblend markers both the brush and nib versions.

The background is with one of my fav 3d embossing folders from Crafter's Companion, Decadent Lillies and used the Spectrum Noir Opaque inkpads for coloring. The sentiment is from the Gemini Everyday phrases and the die is from the All Occansion Banners. The larger die is from my stash.

I would love to play the following challenges....
