I got some stamps I ordered from Mr Postman today!! I HAD to get this one TGF stamp as soon as a saw THIS gorgeous card! I loved this stamp and I HAD to get it! While I was looking for a seller online, I came across Nut Crafters who had it for 30% off at £4.40! as soon a I saw postage would only be £1 I KNEW I was going to get it! I also got Flutter Anya too for the same price and some gorgeous flowers! I really wasn't expecting my package for a few days but it came today.
Here is my card, I used the sketch at Totally Gorjuss, I hope I have followed it ok!
Also, I think I got a bargin on the sentiment stamp. It's a stamping Bella one which I got from ebay with 7 other little sentiment stamps for only £2.50! That came today, so I had to use it :)
I used my lovely Promarkers to colour the image in. I used memento ink but it ran a little bit!!! I thought it doesn't run with Promarkers?! Maybe I got different card from Paper mill than the last time I went.... I was going to colour Annika's books in but I like them white.
See the pink sponged bit around the sentiment and image? That is done with my promarkers too! I was quite impressed with myself when I thought of that and it worked, lol.
I cut the circles out myself, it took me a while to find a round object the right size to go with the scallop circle and then when I did find something (after searching the whole house) it was in my craft draw!
I love this paper. It's one that Lisa sent me. I wish I knew who it was by as I really would like to buy some! Maybe i'll take some time soon to look on some craft shop websites and see if I can find it.
I thought I would add the little gems in the top right corner as it looked a little too plain up there!

If the card is pearly or satin kind of card (coated) then you have to leave the ink to dry off a bit (or blast with heat gun) then it should be fine with promarkers. I use the gold dust card sometimes (white with a gold sheen) and thats the same.
Fab card hunny and yay on your new sentiment stamps :D:D:D Also congrats on the stampman blog hop!
