Betty Boots Sparkle

When I was at the Ally Pally craft show recently I managed to catch up with the uber talented Lisa Horton from That Craft Place. There isn't anything crafty that Lisa isn't a master of, including drawing her own images. Some of those images have now been made into clear stamps. The range is called Betty Boots and I got my hands on one of them. This is just the first card I've made.

I used a 7"x 7" card blank and covered it with ivory card. Next I used Pan Pastels to colour a piece of card and used one of the stamps in the set to create the starry background with Spiced Marmalade Distress Ink. I added a length of lace before fixing to the card front. The large ric rac is from Docrafts.

This image is called Fairy Betty and comes in a set of eleven clear stamps. I coloured Betty with Copics and added glitter to her skirt and wings. I cut Betty out and mounted her with foam pads onto a background of Spiced Marmalade DI.

The sentiment is another of the stamps in the set. It was stamped in Spiced Marmalade and clear embossed. I finished the card by die-cutting some stars with a Marianne die in turquoise card. I embossed some in gold and the others were clear embossed.
There are eight 'Betty Boots' stamp sets so far and if you ask nicely to join the Facebook That Craft Place group you can see the whole range.
I have entered this card in the following challenges:
