Sweet Pea Stamps

Hi Everyone, Just a reminder that it's not too late to be in with a chance to win one of the many great prizes on the "Around The World With Cri-Kits" Blog Hop. Check out the appropriate post on each Designer's blogs and leave a comment to win a set of 10 Cri-Kits Gel Pens (with holder if required).

And don't forget the major prize - Mandy is giving away the four new-release cartridges -

Cindy Lou / Freshly Picked / Mini Monsters / Wall Decor & More

Once you have collected all the daily clues, solve the anagram, and e-mail the answer to Mandy at comp@scrappy-go-lucky.com.au by Friday 18th June when all the lucky winners will be drawn at random.....Check out all the details at Scrappy-Go-Lucky.

Now, yesterday I promised to show you some cards made with my new goodies from the Papercraft Convention. Here they are.....
These four gorgeous images are "Sweet Pea Stamps" and are only now available in Australia.


A close-up of the stamp.


The photo below is on an angle to show you the very subtle glitter highlights (not sure if the photo has picked it all up). I have used the Spica clear glitter pen for this - it is very subtle, but shows out more if drawn on un-coloured card.


This is the second card (Alyssa's favourite).




I finally took the plunge and invested in some Copic markers, and I have to say - I absolutely love using them, and experimenting with the blending. These cards are all coloured using the Copics.




Green is not normally a colour I go for, but I quite like how this turned out. The flourishes are from "Stretch Your Imagination".





Can you all guess what I have been doing all weekend? I'll keep practicing blending with the Copics, so hopefully the next ones will be better. Alyssa has had fun with them too, and will be posting hers tomorrow.

Till next time,
Luv, Tereesa.

  1. Oh wow, these look gorgeous. They ARE the the stamps i fell in love with on Enfys's blog. I am so getting some - and the copics too. But I bet they won't be anywhere near as well done as yours! Well done.

  3. Copics are great aren't they? Nice stamps and your colouring is amazing. Did you get a blender pen as well?
