Fishing Dragons...

Hello friends!

Happy September!

I LOVE autumn, it is my favourite season by a country mile!

I'm back from summer hols - which were brilliant!  We were so lucky with the weather.  I'm now trying to catch up with my colouring card making!

Ask me on 1st October how that went! /-:

I'm here today with a gorgeous new release stamp set from

Whimsy Stamps

Fishing Dragons Clear Stamps (Dustin Pike)

I had so much fun colouring this super cute dragon!

I am practicing colouring my own backgrounds - it's a bit scary to be honest but it's learning curve and I'm determined to get better!

To make this card I stamped the 

Fishing Dragon 

and die cut it with a stitched rectangle die.

I first coloured the background with Copics, and then moved on to the cute dragon!  (His scales are done with the nib of a colourless blender held on its side! - Thank you to our lovely Crissy Armstrong for the inspiration) <3

Sky - BG0000, BG000, BG01, C00, C01 (Thank you Amy Young for the clouds inspiration)

Ground - E33, E31, E30, E50

Grass - G20, G21, G24, G85, W7

Dragon - YG00, YG03, G07, G29, Y04, Y08, Y18, Y26, Colourless Blender

Jacket - R39, R35, R32

I stamped a sentiment from the 

Fishing Dragons Clear Stamps (Dustin Pike)

onto a torn strip of vellum and wrapped it around the bottom of the design.  (It's secured at the back with sticky tape)

I die cut a piece of gorgeous design paper from the 

Mermaid 6x6 paper pack,

tied a piece if twine around it in a bow and layered the image onto the paper.

Thank you for popping by!
