I want to also say Congratulations to Marisa Grossman and Vivian Peters, they were also chosen to join the Crafty Secrets Design Team!! I look forward to getting to know each of the ladies from the design team!
Here is a card that I recently made using some of the Crafty Secret images. I used images from the Cherish and Sweet Kids stamp sets.
One of the great advantages to the clear stamps is being able to line them up very easily. I used five stamps to create this scene, the little boy, little girl, large branch, small branch and a cluster of flowers. The coloring was done using Copic sketch markers. After all of the images were colored in then I masked off the images and colored in the grass and the sky using the Copic markers and the Copic air brush system. Then I lightly misted over the entire piece with a pearl mist (Ranger Distress Antique Linen ink refill, Gold Perfect Pearls & water). I know this didn't show up in the picture but it has a very pretty light shimmer to it. I stamped the sentiment on to one of the tag images from the Crafty Secrets Classic paper pad, added the pearl mist and inked the edges. I also added the ribbons, lace, flower, buttons & metal embellishments and assembled as shown. Once the card was all assembled then I added a little touch of glitter with some diamond stickles.
