SAT May Release Day 3 Holly Dreams




Hi and welcome to Day #3 of 
Stamp Anniething's May release!  

This month is all about being a girl and hanging with the girls, its also about pampering yourself a bit too!

Meet our newest stamp,
Holly, Sweet Dreams

Holly is available in the store NOW along with the other 2 stamps we show  you  this week!!
`~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Here is the project I made!
I first colored my image with Copic markers on 
100 lb Spectrum Noir Ultra Smooth Premium White Cardstock.
The hair is W9, W7 and W5
I experimented with the skin this time
I used E53, E11, E13, R21 and R30
I wanted to give her a light African American skin tone.

Next I stamped another Holly on 
Inkadinkado Stamping Mask Paper -fussy cut it
and place on top of my colored Holly
Then pretty much rub on some mini distress ink pads at random
but I chose sort of bright colors and try to blend at the edges.
After that I blended some black distress ink on the edges 
and very little in between the bright colors.
When I was satisfied with the night sky background
I removed the masking paper and colored up the edges
by coloring with W9 Copic marker
not too much clean up to do but there were
a few very white spots.
I then added the sentiment that comes with this stamp
which I die cut with one of 
My Creative Time dies
and added finishing touch by adding stars
with a white Sakura Gellyroll.
That's pretty much it. 
I kept this card simple like my previous cards
just adding some color to the background
with either a patterned paper or 
adding distress ink. 

Thanks for joining us for our May Release
 and have a great day!

Remember today is release day. Woot Woot!

Thank you for visiting,
