Lion

Hi bloggers!  You just couldn't have a safari collection without the king of the jungle now could you?  I just love the majestic look of this one, don't you?  Just look at the fine detail in the mane that you get with the matching stamp, it is incredible I think!  All of the animals are really easy to colour too as the shading detail has been put in on the stamps so well.  They make really beautiful cards too as you can really go to town on them or use a simple watercolour wash as I have done here in this sample.  This one sings to me, how about you?  If so, just leave your comment on this post and your name will be entered into the drawing to win it.  Feel free to leave comments on each post, but please only leave one comment per person per post.  I still have a bit more to share with you so I will be back at 3pm today!  All for now, Sue x

  4. Hi Sue, a great card but a stunning stamp and die for the Lion King. I would have been most disappointed if you hadn't included him in your safari collection. I look forward to seeing further examples.

  19. Hi Sue

    Yes, he will definitely roar at some point, although he looks quite quiet at the moment. A great addition to your new collection, and as other have said there is so much detail in the stamps.

    Love Helen xxx

  21. Hello Sue,
    I think this one is my favourite, love all the detail in the stamp to bring the die cut to life. I do wonder how easy it is to line up the image with the die, would love to see a video of you demonstrating it.

  27. Well, we couldn't have a safari collection without the King himself, and what a stunner! What lioness could refuse to walk out with him. The detail on all of the animals, so far, has been incredible. x

  28. What a beautiful die; but I'm probably prejudiced being born in that star sign! Love the depth of colour achieved. Whilst they may seem fierce they are just big pussy cats really. WakeyL
