Spring Punk and a Dragon

Meredith Dillman's Lady in Green is another beautiful new release. She was colored with Spectrum Noirs, the papers are digis I found somewhere, flowers Prima and the gears came from an used up Glue Glider cartridge that I ran a copper paint pen over.

This is Meredith Dillman's Emerald Dragon also found on the same plate. Another gorgeous image it was colored with the Spectrum Noir markers, the background was green card stock I overlaid a tattered angels stencil on and sprayed with several different mists (a couple greens and a brown that actually looked like patina copper on white paper). The rock is covered with bronze stickles.

Don't forget to check out all the wonderful new releases for this month - they are all must haves!

Frantic Stamper Sketch 2/5/12

Today's sketch card features Hero Arts Peacock, you can find it in Fran's newly remodeled store!

I stamped in with black stazon on watercolor paper and, using a blender pen, painted with various mists. The dp is a digi, chipboard Maya Road and the embellishments came from Tattered Angels (not sure actually if they made them or not I picked up a surprise box from them before Christmas last year.) The ribbon is from DCWV.

Not quite sure how happy I am with this, sort of a like/don't like relationship, lol. Any thoughts? ttfn!

Today I have a sketch card from Frantic Stamper. The image is called Le Pendu from the Cat Tarot line of rubber stamps.
