Well College is going amazing cant believe how easy I am finding it all.

My Project for this

week is:-
Funky Antique Lady Doll Digi Stamp

from The East Wind 

(one of our sponsors)

To begin with I started with an A4 sheet of Stone Card
(stash)
which I folded in half and Cut to make a 14cm Square Card.

Next I cut a Piece of brown Script Paper
(stash) 
so that it fitted on the Stone card.
And using 5cm Cream Lace
(Craft - Range)
I covered the Left hand-side and the Top of the Paper.

Next I used some Vintage Flower Paper
( Electique - Fynmark)
which I Die-Cut with Concentric Tag #3
(Go Kreate)
And from some Pearlised Bronze Brown Paper
(Ross Papers)
I Die-Cut out a Delicate Doily Edge
(Molly Moo Dies - Aly's Inky Fingers)

Next I printed off the Image 
on White DC Paper.

I coloured the Images

using my Promarker Pens.

                                                            Ivory                - Eyeshadow/Hair Comb/Wrap
                                                            Satin                 - Skin
                                                            Vanilla              - Skin
                                                            Blush                - Cheeks
                                                            Dusky Rose     - Lips
                                                            Cyan                 - Eyes
                                                            Pastel Yellow  - Hair
                                                            Mustard          - Hair
                                                            Sandstone       - Eyeshadow/Hair/
                                                                                        Hair Comb/Dress
                                                            Cocoa               - Eyeshadow/Hair Comb/
                                                                                        Dress/Gloves/Brooch/Bag      

I also used a Metallic Gold Gel Pen,

on the Hair Comb, Brooch, Bag,

and I also used it to go around the Swirls of the Frame.

Then I Die-Cut it out using a Scalloped Oval
(X-Cut)

To distress everything I used Tom Holtz Distress Inks.
On the Digi Image Oval I started off with Antique Linen Ink
then built the colour up with Vintage Photo Ink
and finally used Walnut Stain Ink for the very outside.
On the Tag I used the Vintage Photo Ink 
and finished the build up with Walnut Stain Ink.
On the Doily Edge I just used the Black Soot Ink. 

Then I put my card together Layering it up,
using a Cream Feather 
(stash)
under the Image.

Finally I added a Cream Paper Rose
( SIL - Craft Shop)
and 2 Brown Skeleton Leaves
(Habico)
on top of the Tag.

I would like to enter this card in
