Never Regret - Bee Crafty Stamps

Hiya and Welcome to my Monday Post for Bee Crafty

Today I'm sharing with you a simple card I made over the weekend - using just one focal stamps and lots of layers

I chose a really pretty floral backing paper for the backdrop of the card, die cut apertures and some peel off's to frame the gorgeous Wordage Stamp - 'Never Regret' - I really love this Sentiment and I use it a lot but I wanted to make this card as simple as possible to show off the stamp. I have used lots of Matt & Layers which is an old technique but works really well in lots of projects. The frame has been raised from the card front using foam tape to give dimension. I also wanted to show how peel off's can be used to tie together the busy background with the simple front panels. 

Thank You so much for visiting my Blog today - please do head on over to the Bee Crafty Blog to see the other Gorgeous Makes by the Design Team and more from me too

Bat Queen Betty

Today I have been taking part in a Challenge over at Simply Betty Stamps Facebook Fan Group

There was a Freebie Image to use this weekend which was exclusive to Members of the Fan Group 

The Challenge has been a lot of Fun 

Her name is 'Bat Queen Betty' 

I coloured 'Bat Queen Betty' using mainly Copic Markers but also two Orange Promarkers because I do not have enough colours in my Copic collection just yet

Lips: E09, E07, E04

I inked the edges of the topper using Spiced Marmalade & Black Soot distress inks and matted using black mirror board.

I stamped a spiderweb & Spider stamps (from Inkadinkado) repeatedly around and 8x8 card blank. Then built up some layers using black mirror board and dark orange backing paper which I stamped again using the spiderweb & spider stamps. I die cut a curcular die using Burnt Orange Coredinations cardstock which I inked through the die using black soot distress ink I cut this die cut in half and fixed half to opposite corners of the topper.

I created some texture with some cheese cloth and then attached the topper using foam tape. I choose some black Halloween peel off stickers (tree, bats, Boo! & eyes) to tie the card together

I hope you like my card and will visit again soon
