She has used one of the new stamp sets by Wendy at Card-io.
 
Check out the Personal Impressions website to see the new Card-io sets of stamps.
 
 
You will require the following to create this project:

Distress Inks, Peeled Paint, Peacock Feathers, Picked Raspberry and Mustard seed.
Watercolour card, black card.
Ranger - Archival Ink, jet black,
Stickles star dust.
Glossy Accents.

 
Step 1
 
Add distress inks onto a matt and spray with plenty of water and wipe watercolour card thought to make the background scene.
Leave to dry.



Step 2
Use a Waterproof Ink to stamp your scene.
Started with the Branch and scarecrow, adding the bird and snail to his/her arms. 


 
Step 3
 
Continue to build the scene with the web and flowers. With the flowers, stamp twice without re inking to get a soft look.
When happy with the stamping add a fine line from the spider to the arm and from the web to the flowers.
Add some glitter to the flowers.
 

Step 4
 
Add glossy accents to birds, snail, spider and caterpillar.
Also a little flower to the hat.
Matt and layer the scene to black card and white card blank.
Add glitter glue to the edge of the watercolour card to finish.
