SAT May Release Day 3 Holly Dreams

Hi and welcome to Day #3 of 

Stamp Anniething's May release!

Holly, Sweet Dreams

`~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

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,
