Unlikely Friends

Good morning and happy Friday. To celebrate St Valentine's Day I'm over at the Ink Art Designs Stamping Playground with my Unlikely Friends.
I've taken the plunge and opened my new Art My Marlene journal. This has 300gsm pages inside so it's fabulous for throwing the kitchen sink at.

I've coloured both my background and images with Brusho's. Dot has now started to stock these too.

I seem to have lost my photograph of just the background, but it was like this but without the stamping and stencilling ;-)

These are the stencils that I've used, again they're by Art By Marlene.
I LOVE these stamps! These are the unlikely friends.

Here they are coloured with Brusho's on heavy watercolour card.

And here they are all in place. I took a photo at this stage just in case I messed up the next bit - the splatter!

I've tried many ways of splattering, but the one I've had most success with is with a fan brush. Luckily it all turned out OK, so I've just added a few sequins and we're all done.
I love how they look together!
I've given them some Glossy Accents to make their eyes shine.

You can find the wonderful Art By Marlene Stamps here 
and the Brusho's here 

I'm also linking this to the Craft Stamper Anything Goes TIMI challenge for February, and the
Stamping Sensations Feminine challenge.

Have a very happy day, and thanks so much for looking x

    I've been having a scroll to see some more of the treats I've missed, and had to pause here to give a big WOW! What amazing rainbow colours, making those animals look so different and unique. Fabulous, uplifting page.
