Let's Celebrate with Jane's Doodles

 Hello and welcome!  Today, I'll share a fun card with you featuring a new digital stamp set from Jane's Doodles!  This one is called Surf's Up. This is another fun, must have set.


I have an inexpensive laser printer. I wish it could handle heavier watercolour paper but sadly, it does not. It does, however, handle a 90lb weight mixed media paper. I used an old Canson spiral bound paper book. 
I'm not sure if it's my printer or the paper, but I find that some of the line work will fade or rub off. Easy fix with a fine liner pen though!


I used watercolour pencils to colour the images, then outlined them the best I could. I just had to add some sparkle and shine with a glitter pen and Nuvo Crystal Glaze.


I hope you enjoyed my card featuring this super cute set!

See you soon!

Jane's Doodles Digis!!

 Hey friends and welcome back! 

You may have heard the Janes from Janes Doodles recently closed her shop and stopped selling her amazing stamps. This was such sad news to hear. But....she has thankfully decided to start selling her designs as digital images!!!

If you're not familiar with Jane's illustrations, I highly recommend you check her out. I've been a fan since I started card making many years ago. She has got a unique, fun and kind of quirky style...which I love!

Now, with all that said, I'm super excited to be a part of her digital design team and help showcase her wonderful designs!


Here is my first project featuring the Road Trip digital stamp! This files is FULL of images! I decided to use the van with everything all in one. But you can set up your scene however you'd like! She has broken down the scene into individual pieces to make creating easy...this is the beauty of digital stamps!


I used coloured pencils and blending solution as my medium. It's literally been years since I've coloured this way and I absolutely love how it turned out.  

This image can be sized however large you want. In this case, it fits my A2 card perfectly. I added a touch of stencilling to give a bit of interest. I also found some very interesting cardstock in my stash. It's an off-white shade with little flecks in it.  I think I got this from WPlus9 a LONG time ago.  


I really hope you will check out Jane's shop! 

Thanks for stopping by...see you soon!
