One in a Million Rose

Hi everyone,

We are still having very hot weather up in the 30c. I have been staying in as much as possible and going our when it is cooler in the evening.

Todays card is the start of 613 Avenue Create new challene for the week. I am using the sponsor Fitztown. The image is called Valentine 12. I love roses and I like to color them. I printed the card onto neenah cs and I have used copic markers. YG61,63,67. R81,83. I then used a white gel pen   give more highlights.  I then added three sequins. The card base is neenah cs and the DSP is from a 4x6 DCWV paper pad. I added a little wink os stella on the highlighted parts. The sentiment is My favorite things sentiment set. There was just too much white space so I used a ruler and a SU close to cocoa marker to add the frame.

I will enter this card into these challenges.

Thank you all so much for stopping by. happy creating and have a fabulous day!

Spring Branch

Hi everyone,

The Fairys Challenge has two sponsors this week. This adorable stamp is from Sami Stamps. I printed it onto neenah cs and water coloured it with distress markers apricot 1,2, honeycomb 1,2,3, picket fence. The leaves were coloured in mowed lawn. I used SU pocket silhouette stamp set for the small leaves in the background using old olive ink. I also chalked the background with SU chalks. pink, blue, orange. I then fussy cut the image out and added it onto another layer of the same image and popped it up with dimensional foam squares.  I had some wire that I had picked up from Micheals store and used it for the tree branch. The sentiment is from my favorite things hand written stamp set. I stamped it onto neenah cs and embossed it with pewter embossing powder. I coloured three white flowers with the apricot distress markers added glue on the top of them and added MS glitter. The pearls and the silver sequins were then added .  My card base is neenah cs. The DSP brown and music note were from DCWV stack. I used to water colour all the time and I got away from using it when I purchaced some copic markers. I love my markers. I don't have a ton but what I do have works for me. It is fun to go back to using some of my favorite techniques. I hope you have enjoyed my card this week and get inspired by doing a favorite technique you like to do.

Dreams Come True Fairy

Hi everyone,

I started to make this card this  morning but stopped for a bit and help a friend do a bridal bouquet. It turned out lovely and we had a great time doing it. I then went to finish my card. I have used crafters companion flower fairy from one of their CD's on my card today.

I printed it off onto neenah white cs. The card base is Staples 100 lb vanilla cs and fussy cut  around the images. It is done in 3d. I have added wink of stella on the fairy, butterfly, and the MS border punch. The DSP is American Craft 6x6 paper pad from Local Winners store.  I placed a small doily cut in half under the image. The doily is from Micheal store. The sentiment is from my favorite thinks called essential sentiments from SSS. I used the MS stamp press that was also in my SSS order. Its a great stamp set that is done in hand writing. Lastly I used 3 buttons.

It will make a great birthday card. I will add this card into these challenges.
