Sugar Nellie Sweet Ebony Stamps

Yesterday I received my order of Sweet Ebony stamps from Funky Kits, and it was just too hard to resist stamping a couple of them and making a card.

This stamp is called "Picking Apples" and I love it....well they are all too cute for words, but this is the first one I used. For the card I have also used the "So Sweet" Stamp that came as an extra when you ordered the whole set of 6 stamps. The papers are Basic Grey "Sugared", the ribbon is Choc Chip Taffeta by Stampin' Up. I used the Stampin' Up spiral punch to make the ripped notepaper, and the scalloped circle on the sentiment. The flowers are by Prima and the buttons are from my stash.

The images was stamped in Dark Brown Stazon and has been coloured with my Prismacolor pencils and blended with Sansador using paper stumps...and of course there is the addition of a small amount of sparkle by using a Sakura clear glitter gel pen on her hair and in the centre of some of the flowers.
