Spread your Wings by Ana Bondu
Things with Wings by Me!
You can't have enough wings. Not in my world anyway. Things with Wings is one of the new stamps I designed for Carballe Studios, and although she's got wings I thought she needed more so I stamped the butterfly by Ana Bondu onto Dura-Lar wet Media film using Staz-On ink (that's important - some inks will smudge), and doubled up on the wings. Oh yes, I think we could all do with a few butterfly wings ;-)
I've been building a little journal of print techniques and this is one of the pages inside. It's a second pull from a messy plaid technique. I stamped my *new* Round and Around background stamp to create the circles.
Here she is peeking out from the inside pages LOL!
And a close-up .... I've been drawing quirky little characters like this forever it seems.
I often get asked what I use to colour in images and to be truthful it varies quite a lot. But today I coloured with my good ol' Distress Inks, because they are super easy to get a quick water-colour effect, and I love the colours.
This is beautiful! I LOVE your unique, "happy" style Kate. Your art never fails to brighten my day. Thank you for sharing. Marion s.
