Swinging on a Star

This weeks LIM Change is up in the air.  I really love this digi, so I made him an angel and I gave him wings. How else would he have landed on a star?  I know this may look more like a baby card, but the sentiment was so inspiring and relevant.

I colored the digi with pencils. I used a butterfly die and placed the wings behind him.

Stamps - Cuddly Buddly (digi) Cornish Heritage Farm (sentiment)
Die Cuts - Spellbinder, Cheery Lynn (butterfly wings) - Little Inkers (bow)

I hope he made you smile a little.




 

I've been showcased!!

I popped into the Less is More Challenge blog to check out this weeks challenge and what a wonderful surprise. They showcased my purple card. And see my badge displayed just to right  These are some fabulous ladies, which makes even more special. You need to stop over there and check them out!

I have some ideas for this weeks challenge rolling around in my head. (There's lots of room). But first I have to show off my latest digi.   

Tell me she is just sweet.  I cut the right side of the image and slid some DP behind her. I colored her with Copics, but really the pretty little fairy from A Day For Daisies, did all the work.  In case you can't read the sentiment from Cornish Heritage Farms, it reads: " Plant a seed of friendship, reap a bouquet of happiness, by Louis L. Kaufman."

Fascination, Part III

My third and final lighthouse, and I'm ahead of schedule. That may be a first.

This the last of the three lighthouses I have from the Cornish Heritage Farm set, but I probably won't be the last time I use them.

#1 Son - Hubby - #2 Son

This last card was colored with Copics. I used spellbinders dies for mounting and the ship's wheel. The die in the middle is a Cuttlebug die. The paper is from Paper Studio and the sentiment is from Flourishes.  The rocks were snagged from Hubby's beautifully landscaped yard. I better put them back before he misses them. 

Fascination, Part II

I just love these lighthouses and this Cornish Heritage Farm set came with 3 different light houses. I made the first card for DH for Father's Day. This one will be for one of my sons.  That is if I get the 3rd card made. I have 2 sons. If I don't get the 3rd one done I will have to (Gasp!) buy cards.

I was so impressed with my ship's wheel and compass that I nearly broke my arm patting myself on my back.
One of the snowflake Spellbinders dies always reminded me of a ship's wheel. The compass is part of the stamp set. I punched the compass out and glued on the "wheel" and added  Judi Kins Diamond Glaze. I also used a Spellbinder's dies to cut out the image and mount it the perfect DP by K&Company.

That's all I got for now. Hope your day is filled with smiles...

Fascination

So the last couple weeks, I have just been fascinated with light houses. Every time one of my fellow bloggers post a light house card I just sit and stare with awe.  Now you talented ladies do many and delightful cards, so why light houses?  I have been watching an HGTV series called "Sara's House".  She is redoing her island cottage. (Everyone's got one right?) Everything is nautical and just out of this world. Then I remembered this stamp I had from Cornish Heritage Farms.  I bought before I got into Copics, and hadn't had it out for a couple of years.  I hate to toot my own horn... But I actually thought outside the box (a little).

I think I will give this to Hubby for Father's day.  He never goes near the computer, so I am safe.

Both image and sentiment are from Cornish Heritage Farms.  The paper was purchased at Michaels in their clearance bin.  I also purchased the striped embossed card from Michaels.

I made one dud, which will never be posted, and this one I a quite pleased with. I think I would like to vacation in Maine sometime so I am entering this in crazy4challenges C4C89 - Favorite vacation spot or activity.

Have a great week.
