Sweet Pea Stampers - A Recipe

It's another week at the Sweet Pea Stampers and this week we have a fabulous recipe for you.
Your recipe is :-
4 papers
2 shapes
2 ribbons
1 button
1 sweet pea image


I have used this wonderful Sweet Pea image called Flowing in Blue. However as you can clearly see I have not used blue to colour my image. But what a beauty this girl is, I fell in love with these images the first time I saw them, and it is hardly any wonder is it? Go over to the Sweet Pea website to see all of the wonderful Sweet Pea Designs I challenge you not to fall in love with at least one of the fabby designs.

We have a fabulous prize this week for a lucky winner chosen by random org, you can win the fabulous stamp "Dance of the Butterfly" as well as a week as GD on the Sweet Pea Stampers.



I used a combination of pro-markers and copics to colour my image, but i'm still working on the shading and blending, I must go check out those tutorials again!

The background to my image was coloured using my distress ink pads in colours - spun sugar, and worn lipstick. Aren't those names just scrumptious???

I have used a combination of satin ribbon and some spotty grossgrain ribbon (dovecraft) with the addition of the flower button. Now I have no idea where those buttons come from but i would love to get my hand on more if anyone can help???

Again using one of my favourite Martha Stewart punches and the addition of some flat backed pearls, which i have been working my way through, it will soon be time to re-order, me thinks!
Have stickled around the butterfly, as I had to get some glitter in somewhere!

For more fabby inspiration go over to the Sweet Pea Stampers Challenge blog and see the wonderful work by my talented team buddies. We would also love you to join us this week with our challenge, its always such a pleasure to stop by your blogs to see what you've been creating.

Thank you for popping by will be back later with some more cards hugs Linda x
