I have
been a bit grumpy lately probably the result of the greyness and rain after
that burst of sunshine so in order to encourage the sun back I got my grumpy penguin
stamps out to see if putting them in an exotic setting would cheer them up,
unfortunately I don’t think it did!
I began
with blending the yellow, green and blue paints on my page with a baby
wipe. When dry I used the Joggles
stencils to create some “flowers” with the paints and the Mini Blending Tool. I
then over-stamped with the Prima stamps in Watering Can to provide some
texture. Next came a few white rub ons from my stash and I mixed a tiny amount
of the Shamrock Green Magicals with Gel Medium and spread it though the Dinky
Stencil in a couple of places.
On
separate card I stamped two of the grumpy penguins and coloured using a damp
paint brush dipped into the Magicals, hand cut them and stuck them to my page
along with the quote I had chosen.
Using
the Portfolio oil pastels I added some shadows and highlights, rubbing with my
finger rather than using water to get a smooth result.
