Smeared & Smudged May 2015 Member Blog Hop: Anything Goes

Hey there everyone, and thanks for stopping by.  It's been awhile since I have done a blog hop with Smeared and Smudged, so I thought I would give it a go again.  This month's challenge is ANYTHING GOES, my favorite theme.  All that is needed is a bit of imagination and some stamps, either rubber or digital. 

 I chose this cool Fairy Dragon Queen digi stamp by Norma J. Burnell that I purchased on Etsy from Fairy Tangle Art.  Isn't she beautiful?

I sized the image to 4"x6", printed on cream card stock, and colored with my Twinkling H20s.  I have provided a list of the colors used in the supplies below.  I used a tiny amount of white gesso to give some highlights to areas I felt needed it.

Next, adhere image to a piece of thin chipboard for stability.  Die cut frame from grey card stock and trim 3/8" all around the edges.  Adhere frame to 5"x7" black card.  Here is a closeup.  I tried to capture the beautiful shimmer of the Twinkling H20s, but it is so hard to do that if you are an amateur photographer, such as myself.

Supplies:

Fairy Dragon Queen digital stamp

ColourArte TwinklingH20s: Moss Green, Forest Green, Mustard Green

Sweet Lavender, Blue Ice, Mystic Blue

Dreamsicle, Sunflower, Golden Monarch

Here is a list of the bloggers to make it easy for you to check out all of the awesome creations by these very talented artists.  I know inspiration awaits from each and every one of them.
