Hello again :)
We were on our holidays last week, we popped over the border into Wales and had an enjoyable week in and around Monmouth, even the weather was on our side ;) Unfortunately the wifi connection was not great so I'm playing catch up with my own cards and Feedly too, which is bulging at the seems with blog posts to read!!
Anyhow, I shared this card over at Seven Hills Crafts this week.... I was curious to see if the Little Emotions stamp set from Mama Elephant could be turned into Jelly Babies because that's what they reminded me of.....
I used the smiley face and body, added a belly button and then coloured them in with Polychrome Pencils.... I think my favourite is the dark purple one ;) Proper Jelly Babies have a white powdery finish and I was a bit perplexed as to how I could recreate it so I tried white gel pen which I think seems to work although the close up makes them look like they're bubbly!! I found the perfect sentiment in a set from Lil Inkers too :)
Stamps used:
(Little Emotions) Mama Elephant
(Kite Flying) Lil Inkers
Thanks for stopping by :)

Ha ha! Yes they make perfect Jelly Babies and that sentiment was meant to be with them!
ReplyDeleteHope you guys had a good time in Wales. I'd like to explore it a bit more one day. Mostly spent time in Chepstow with the ex but then mom and I once spent a day on Hay-on-Wye - the town of bookshops. It was heaven!
England has the best Jelly Babies ever, we can't get the white powdery ones here anymore (except when Aldi's does an English food promotion).... thanks for the memory and also for making me hungry lol. Love your fun design as always!
ReplyDeleteSqueal! LURVE those jelly babies.
ReplyDeleteGlad you had a good time in Monmouth, I live an hour from there towards the coast!
Just the perfect juicy, powdery jelly babies, Jenny ... sweet and so fun! Hugs, Anita :)
