Lily


A bit different than my usual Penny Black card this morning but this is a slapstick stamp called Tiger Lily and I used copic pens to colour. I do find their caps slightly easier than Promarkers and Spectrum pens but I would only colour one image with not too many colour changes so for the flower I managed OK.
I decided that I wanted the lily to pop out of a circle and I made the stitched circle frame using Simon Says Stamps Stitched Circles it times like these I think I should have brought a magnetic plate but on the second attempt I cut a frame that I was happy with.
I found the right coloured patterned card in a Taylor Expression pack just to give a finishing edge to the whole card and I cut the Simon Say Stamp Wishing die twice to stick together, if I was using white I would perhaps cut out three times.
I always decide on the sentiment last when everything is stuck and almost finish, big mistake to then try and actual stamp on something thats been raised by sticky fixers which is why there is a fishtail banner hiding the mess underneath.
I haven't been able to link any more supplies because Mr Virgin is only working now and again and I want to post this before he disappears again.
