Twinchies

Over at the Twinchies challenge blog it's FLORALS for challenge #4 and here is what I decided to go with....

I started with a "mop-up" piece of card that I have stamped in black using an Anita's Art stamp that reminds me of a sunflower 

I have then accentuated some of the colours with green & yellow promarkers

This is my entry across at the challenge 

My second one is also an Anita's Art stamp, this one reminds me of a gerbera,  again I have stamped in black, used promarkers to colour the flower & then edged the card with shaded lilac distress ink, I've pulled some colour in from the edges using a damp paintbrush.

These 2 will almost certainly making their way onto cards at some stage!

Birthday is this weeks challenge over at Addicted to clean and simple so here is my submission... A Quarto sized card, a paint chip in Hydrangea blue that I picked up on a previous visit to the USA and the stamp is from Anita's Art, I coloured the image with Promarkers and added just the slightest hint of iridescent glitter the the air around the candle flames. The greeting is stamped in archival black & is of unknown origin!

And here is a close up
