Some New Cards At Last!

The card above was inspired by a card Amanda Branston (Lavinia Stamps DT) created. The background was done with Pan Pastels, then I stamped the images on top. I used Pink Posca pens for the blossoms on the tree.
The next two cards were inspired by Elaine Langford-Pugh, also of Lavinia Stamps. I used a square gel press to make the outline of the card below. Then lightly brushed around a circle shape for the sun. I used Morning Mist grey inkpad for the grey flowers, and the little Dragonfly (LS), then Mermaid Lagoon Distress Oxide ink pad for the blue flower heads. Lastly I added some Caribbean Ocean Nuvo Crystal Drops for the centers of the grey flowers. These Drops add a bit of height and texture to the card.
I used the same technique on the card below, using the same gel press. This time I used Elements Emporor Red ink for the flowers. The flowers are called Garden Poppy, from Lavinia Stamps. I used some Red Berry Cyrstal Nuvo Drops in the center of the grey flowers. 
I had fun making these cards! My hip pain is much better than it was, so standing/sitting/sleeping is easier for me now. Which means I can get back into my artwork! And FINALLY I have an appointment with my Specialist, in a months time! It's been 'scheduled' for the last six months, and after contacting the hospital and hurrying things along, I finally got an appointment come through today. Hopefully I actually see my Specialist and not one of his colleagues, like I did once before. Eve though they had access to my files, they still put me on the wrong medication. Anyway, thank you for dropping by! Have a SUNSHINE day! Remember to always be your authentic self, and shine bright each and every day!
