Strawberry’s Kisses Christmas!

OK, let’s just say it straight……………

You are going to love these Strawberry Kisses designs and if you don’t I will officially eat my hat!

They’re absolutely stunning and the designs and sentiments are perfect for Christmas, I have had the most fun colouring them in – I can’t choose a favourite, as I love them all, but this is the first one I coloured so I’m showing you this one first “Christmas Fairy”

I’ve coloured her with my Spectrum Noir pens, what else! for Snow (the kitten) i’ve used IG1, IG2, IG 4 and IG 6 and the blender, her cheeks and ears are PP1 and PP3,  for her wings CT1, CT2, CT4 and GB5 the same for her tiara with the addition or OR1, the ground is BGR1 and BGR3.

I’ve used a lovely bright paper from the Mulberry Wood Xmas CD and some coordinating Core’dinations card I’ve embossed a panel with a Darice snowflake embossing folder.

The Christmas Fairy stopper for the easel card has been made using the solid sentiment stamp, there are two in each stamp set an outline which you can colour with your pens and a solid one which looks amazing stamped with versamark and embossed with sparking embossing powder as I have done here.  The sentiment panel is from our Die’sire scalloped tags set.

A lovely little ribbon button and pin combo finishes her off.  OUH yes and I glittered her wings and tiara with crystal glitter too 🙂 and it’s all stuck together with my favourite glue’s from Collall

We will be launching these fabulous new stamps on Friday 7th September on Create and Craft Sky 671, I have shows at 9am, 2pm and 6pm.  I’ll be doing loads of colouring with Spectrum Noir, and hopefully I’ll have loads of hints and tips for you, tune in and if you’ve got any questions I’ll do my best to answer them too 🙂

So  –  I am also testing to see if you actually do read my blog posts 🙂 – leave a comment on here and update your blog, facebook or twitter account with a link to this post (I will be checking) and you will be able to win 3 cards, 1 from each of the shows, which I demo and make on air, and I’ll sign them for you too.  I will also send you a goody bag of Crafter’s Companion essentials of glue and card, it will be just like Christmas when you get it.

Some come on spread the Strawberry’s Kisses word and see you on Friday 🙂

    I do enjoy your blogs because they are about Spectrum Noir pens, and any extra help the better, I do think you should write a colouring book!
    Keep up the good work.

    Hi just wanted to say thank you for listing the pens you used I find this really helpful as I am new to stamping and colouring (took me l long enough to get started looking at all the stamps I have bought and not used over the years – had to have them all though). Anyway also wanted to add I will definitely be putting my order in and watching you on Friday thank you for all your ideas.

    Hi Leanne the cards look lovely. I’m working at a craft shop on Friday and although I can watch you on the computer, I can’t have the sound on!! Some may say that could be an advantage, but I wouldn’t!! I’ll still watch though. Not sure how to link to Facebook, but I’ll ‘like’ this and hope for the best. Liz
