Sunday 9 October 2011

When I remembered that Hels’ challenge for this week (Sunday Stampers) was blue and orange, I knew I’d just used those colours on my daffs/narcissi but I wanted to play for a little while, so I stamped a journal page.
Believe it or not, this is nothing but blue and orange – Stormy Sky, Spiced Marmalade, Tumbled Glass, a little bit of Rusty Orange (Dylusions) and some Walnut Stain around the edges.  It’s busy and a bit overdone but it was fun :-) I coloured the images (Dylusions) with Copics/Promarkers. Just decided she needs another hand, he, he – one to hold the brolly.  Will put that right ASAP…

orange and blue
Trouble is, I’ve ransacked my playroom, the desk is a mess and I’ve left loads of stamps covered in ink  :-(
Worth it though ;)
