I got all my new stamps from Whiff of Joy the other day, The very talented Elizabeth Bell stamps Oh how I love her drawings. I colored them in with my copic markers and glazed gel pens, I used some glitter for the wings, prima flowers. The purple ribbon is from HL and the Orange is from SU. I used the SU wonderful stamp and the Autumn Leaves ticket saying and on that one I used the SU punches.. I added some stickles to flowers on the one card and brads on the other. I also used the nestabilites on them. I have the other new ones I got colored but not enough time to make them into cards yet since I had no electric for most of the day. But thanks Elizabeth and Katharina for such gorgeous stamps.
