Happiness is in the Little Things

Hi Everyone! Niki here. Are you ready for the new release? So many cute new images! Before inking up some of the new stamps, I had to ink up another one of the images from the last release that I hadn’t had a chance to play with yet.

I used the beautiful Bird Swing image from Sylvia Zet’s Wee Stamps line. Sylvia has such a way with illustrating. Her images are just beautiful. I stamped the image on copic x-press it cardstock with tuxedo black memento ink and colored it with copic markers. I used these marker colors: YG61, YG63, YG67, E31, E33, E35, B12, B14, B16, B32, B34, B37, YR20, YR23, YR24, YR30, YR31, R24, R27, R46, E19, colorless blender. I used some patterned paper from the October Afternoon 5 & Dime paper pad.

I sponged some antique linen distress ink around my image while it was in the oval nestability die. I also sponged some antique linen and around the edges of my patterned papers, sentiment, and cream card base. I used a sentiment from the Magical Mini Letter Seals stamp set. I added some stitching and crocheted lace. I colored some pearls with a red copic marker to match my red accents. Then, I finished my card off with some paper roses.
Have a great week!
Niki
