Studio 313 Exclusive Creations
Hello! My name is Shawne, I am an Illustrator. I love art in many forms. There is always something new to learn and experiment with. Card making is perfect with many different mediums and that is how I got hooked! I just recently moved my image line, Studio 313 by Shawne to McMahon Five Designs and am really excited to be working with my friend Sue McMahon. I also have a line of stamps at Clear Dollar stamps, although I am no longer there. You can find out more about my past work and some more recent at my blog Paper Art From Studio 313.

Here is my card for this week:



The image this week is from the Stamp and Create Store, and I coloured her using coloured pencils and OMS. I then cut out the image and matted onto various offcuts of printed, plain, batik, embossed and metallic cardstock, and sewed on the little sequin flowers. The rhinestones were stuck on using silicone adhesive.

Why don't you head on over to the MMSC challenge bllock and check out all the other beautiful cards made by the MMSC Design Team members? They really are fabulous this week!
