Hello Everyone, how are you all today?, well I hope and enjoying your day. We have a bit of sunshine, but this morning when I let Teallach in at 5.30, it was 4 degrees, definitely getting much cooler, the first of September is officially the first day of Autumn.
Thank you for the lovely comments on my last card, I do appreciate every one of them, and not just about the card, but the little responses to whatever I've been taking about, I know it takes time and it's great that you find it to visit me.
My card today shows one of Aurora Wings new images, Hummingbird Sprite;
Isn't this just an adorable image.... I'm not really into doing cute images, but I have to say I do love Aurora Wings little Sprites. I've used watercolours, a mixture of Cotman and the new Aletnew paints. Yes, I've been treating myself and I bought these as the colours are wonderful, and most quite different to what I already have. I believe that the paints match their inks and markers.
The paper is a First Edition First Blooms and I've used card to co ordinate with the colours I've used.
My little flowers are the nearest ones I have to Fuchsias, some purple ribbon and a lovely pearl embellishment the my lovely friend Mrs. Duck gifted to me. Load of glitter on the Sprite's wings, and a few tiny pearls.
Now I have a question that maybe some of ladies who use digital stamps might know. Is there a way around the printer ink staying in place when using wet medium? I tried to be careful, but some of the ink moved. I would think it would be much the same with markers. So if anyone has a suggestion I would love to hear it.
Right then, that's me for now, we are going for a wee walk and then a bit of lunch, so take care of yourselves and see you soon,
Autumn magic
