☀️ Here Comes the Sun! ☀️

Hello crafty friends! With what looks to be the last week of hot sunshine I was inspired to make this summer card using the set – Here comes the sun from Kraftin Kimmie Stamps.

https://www.kraftinkimmiestamps.com/product/here-comes-the-sun/

I have stamped the image on to Fabriano Artistico HP watercolour paper with Antique Linen distress ink. I have used my Faber Castell Albert Durer watercolour pencils to colour her in.

For the background I have used the Krafty Scenery Stencil with Squeezed Lemonade and Spun Sugar Distress inks.

I Hope you like todays card. Thank you so much for visiting my blog. Hugs, Emma xxx

Tiny Halloween! 🎃

Hello crafty friends! I’m back today with a cute birthday card using C.C. Designs set Roberto’s Rascals – Tiny Halloween! 🎃

https://ccdesignsrs.com/products/new-tiny-halloween-clear-stamp-set?_pos=20&_sid=0e9b40aae&_ss=r

I absolutely adore Christine’s sets and I’m constantly looking through my collection at the moment to see what I can create.

I have stamped the ‘Boo’ background using the stamp from Halloween Inchies with MFT Cement Grey Ink.

I Hope you like it! Have a wonderful weekend! Hugs, Emma xxx

I’m back! 🥰👋🏻

Hey crafty friends! Wow it’s been over a year since I’ve posted my last card after losing my “mojo”.

We have just finally moved in to our new house and after finding all my stamps again I wanted to create this fun Halloween card using stamps from one of my favourite companies C.C. Designs! 🎃🖤

This image is taken from the Roberto’s Rascals – Monkeys and I coloured him up with Faber – Castell Polychromos on Strathmore Toned Tan paper.

I Hope you like it! Hugs, Emma xxx

💚 Kawaii Force 💚

Hello lovelies I’m back today to share my final card with you as part of the C.C. Designs team. I have decided it’s time for me to leave and pursue my other goals as a wildlife artist. If you haven’t checked out my Facebook and Instagram – Emma Ireland Art then perhaps you might take a moment to have a peek. ❤️

I thought this card would suit a distress ink galaxy background. I haven’t done many of these as I prefer clean and simple but it was so much fun to have a play. I used one image and one sentiment and I stamped them with Memento Tuxedo Black Ink and coloured them with my Prismacolour pencils.
