Arrow!

Hello everyone,

Hope you are doing well and feeling refreshed after the weekend.

Vigilante - BiskuttinaI am very happy to share with you another one of my digital stamps which you can download for free from the freebies section here. ‘Vigilante’ is inspired by the TV series ‘Arrow’. So I dedicate it to all the Arrow fans out there 🙂 🙂 I wanted to come up with a female version of this character! Enjoy this new stamp and I encourage you to be creative and use it in original ways as part of your cards and crafts 🙂

I coloured the image with Prismacolor pencils but this time I didn’t use the odorless solvent. I just used the pencils on their own as I wanted a bolder effect to bring out the dark and nocturnal characteristics that surround the vigilante. If you have a look at the digi you might also notice that the face appears wider than the one in my coloured version (in reality it is not!). That is done on purpose to allow for heavy shadows around the face since the hood casts a lot of dark shadow so you would need to use dark colours sparingly in this area. For my coloured version I used the no-line technique which eliminates the dark outline around the image.

I hope you will enjoy it and please share it with your friends. I wish you all a very good week 🙂

One small gelato please! :)

Hi there!

Hope you are all well!

Here we are trying to cope with the sweltering heat! It is nice if you’re on holiday but when you have to work, study and do the daily chores it becomes unbearable!! On a positive note beaches are a matter of minutes away so a quick swim can become an item on the to-do list!! 🙂

More so, an ice-cream a day keeps the heat away, if only for a short while! I love ice-cream 🙂 my favourite is chocolate and vanilla soft ice-cream with strawberry sauce and nuts!! I like to try out unusual flavours as well! The weirdest I came across was Popcorn flavour! Well I wasn’t courageous enough to try it out. . .I had a coconut and white chocolate mix instead 🙂

SummerGelato_600And since ice-cream is my favourite dessert for summer I will be giving out this freebie to thank you all for your support 🙂 You can download it here and please pass the word to your friends! Just enjoy it and hope you can use it in a fun summer card or craft. Hope you like it 🙂

Wishing you a lovely day!
