Queen of Glitter

Today I'd like to share with you this bookmark i created using the 'Queen of Glitter' stamp by Suzi Blu & Unity. First I have to say how impressed I was with the size of this stamp, at roughly 5 1/2 inches by 2 inches it's a perfect size for bookmarks or DL cards.

I stamped the Queen onto watercolour paper using Vibrant Violet Stazon Ink.  I used Sakura Stardust Pens with a Tombow Blender pen to colour the background.  The rest of the image is coloured with a mix of Sakura Pens, some matte some glitter, as I wanted to get some contrast on her outfit.  I coloured her face and hands with a Promarker (very carefully so as not to smudge the Stazon).  I then trimmed my image and to finish the edges off neatly, I used some pink washi tape which i folded over the bookmark edge, and then trimmed the corners.

I hope you like her, she definately sparkles
