March Christmas Card Commitments

I'm almost never late for anything, but I am kind of a last minute gal.  So I surprised myself and finished before the 31st with this challenge.

This one is a High Hopes stamp. The DP paper is from K&Company. I colored this with Copics and Prisma pencils. The embellishments are a Wilton doily and buttons.

Isn't this Bo-Bunny paper fabulous? The horse is from Serendipity and the sentiment is Paper Trey Ink. This was done with Prisma Pencils and touched up a bit with Copics.

The silver paper has really pretty embossing, which didn't photo well.  The paper is My Minds Eye. The stamp is Stampendous. The itsy-bitsy poinsettias are a digi from A Day For Daisies. The deer was cut from my Silhouette Cameo. I also used Spellbinder's dies with this.

Whew! I am really tired.  Best hit the pillow, it's going to be a long week.  Have a good one. 

Gather the Roses

Hi everyone! Sorry I haven't posted much. I afraid I am reverting into that collector mode. I love shopping, but just can't seem to make anything come together. Hopefully this little project will send me back in the creating mode.

This is all one stamp from Crafters Companion.  I colored the rose with Copics and shaded with pencil and sponging along the outer regions.  Used Spellbinders label dies for mount and and a Cuttlebug die for the flourishes. I also did some scoring with my Score Pal.

Times a ticking.  Got things to do, places to go and roses to gather. 

Thank You's

I had another 49th birthday last week, so here are a few of the thank you cards I made.  I am entering one in the Less is More Challenge - One Layer, Script.  The "Thank You!" was computer generated. I changed it up a little with coloring in the letters and adding a stamp or an embellishment.

The birds are Hero Arts stamps and the dragonfly is Serendipity.  The Sunflower is a button, and I used a Die-Namics die cut to make the black and white flower.  I used both Copics and Prisma pencils to color. The embossing was done with Cuttlebug folders and on the last card I used a Fisker's boarder punch. Each card has glitter, on the block letters, which never photos. Also, I used only green on the one with the sunflower, but it photoed as black.

I've decided #1 will be my challenge entry.

If anyone is interested in the script I made, email me with the subject line "49 Again" and I will send you the MS word doc as an attachment.

My favorite Daisies

Happy Sunday! Spring is just around the corner and what better way to anticipate it's arrival than a lovely bouquet of Daisies.

I have certainly gotten my moneys worth with theses Gerber Daisies from Flourishes. I colored this bouquet with Prisma pencils. The edges were made with a Fiskers punch. For some reason I have really been loving the yellows and pinks together so I added a little pink ribbon on the side and placed a yellow Prima flower and a pearl on the tie. The sentiment "Your Too Kind" is from Paper Trey Ink. 

I'm entering this in Flourishes Timeless Tuesday Challenge inspired by country living.

Mo's Digital Pencil Challenge

I just had so much fun coloring this little Diva from Mo's.  Thank you Sherri for supplying me with that perfect green card stock.

I colored her with Copics. The matting was done with the Silhouette Cameo. I added some jewels and used a paisley embossing folder.

I am entering this Diva in Mo's Digital Pencil Challenge anything goes. Let's hope she brings back a prize.
