Trying Out The New Camera

I have a long way to go to learning my new camera but as they saying goes "practice makes perfect" so below is some of my practices.

My Daddy say's I have to support football, but my Auntie Natalie say's she's gonna teach me ballet.

Can you tell he's a Mum's boy?

they simply dote on each other.

Did you know that Admiral Butterflies have hairy backs? I didn't until today.

Diva - Mo Manning digital image

This is Diva by Mo Manning and Oooo isn't she just the perfect Madam?

I teamed her with Bo Bunny papers from Bunny Zoe's crafts and a metal corner that I've had in my stash forever then coloured her with Copic markers and Prisma pencils then added a bit of love to bring it all together.

Floral Craft - Violas

It has been so long since I did any Floral Craft that I thought I might have lost my touch but I managed to grab a couple of hours free time so I sat down and went to work.

I love Violas such a pretty little flower and to make them from scratch was a challenge trying to capture there likeness.

I used a small pear punch, a mini sun punch, a medium Japanese Gingko punch and a medium birch leaf for the flower and a deep purple marker to add the centre veins to the petals.

Hope you like this.
