Wow – this month is moving fast. Valentine’s Day is right around the corner!
I really like Valentine’s Day. We keep it pretty simple around here – but my girls get a little surprise during dinner. Last year I decorated Target mini mailboxes. I’m not sure what I’ll do this year. I guess I better get thinking!
But [...]
Hello everyone! I hope everyone had a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. 2010 – can you believe it?
I know I have not posted in a while – things have been so busy – with you too I’ll bet.
One thing I want to mention up front – I had a total hard drive failure [...]
Nothing quite like new rubber stamps!
As soon as I got the Rain, Snow, Shine Miss Anya set, I had to try it out. Greeting Farm stamps are so fun to color. They have enough detail to be interesting but still have space to color and blend.
My initial plan for this card was to paper piece [...]
I thought I’d share the Mother’s Day card I made (since Mom’s Day is over).
I got to use my new Impressibility Dies! And I was experimenting with making a vintage fabric kind of look.
The rose image is from the Greeting Farm Fancy Fluers set. I stamped it with Memento Rich Tuxedo ink and colored it [...]
I love these cute fairy stamps from Eat cake Graphics. The drawings are so whimsical and fun to color! The Flower Fairies cling set has 5 different fairy stamps – all adorable!.
I decided to perch my fairy on a little magical mushroom from the Fairy Fauna cling set – so she could deliver her birthday [...]
Is there anything cuter than baby clothes? (I especially love the little shoes!).
I decided to try my hand at embellishing a little infant T-shirt. I chose to use the Pink Cat Studio stamp from the Farmyard Friends kit.
I stamped the image in Palette ink and heat set it with an iron. (I placed a piece [...]
I love this image and the saying that goes with it! These stamps are part of the Letter to Santa Cling set (the stamps are from Eat Cake Graphics – love that snowman too!).
I colored the image with Copics. I was having a lot of trouble with my ink migrating outside my ink lines. [...]
I decided the Gnome Home from Odd Bird Planet needed a little sprucing up for the Holidays. I was in a bit of a goofy mood and my decorating went a little over the top, but I thought I’d share it anyway.
Here is my finished product. I used a bunch of different Odd Bird [...]
That’s what my calendar says anyway. I really love Fall. I always thought New Years should be in fall. Its my favorite time to take stock of where I am and set new goals.
And I have a bunch of them (LOL!). One of them is to slow down and appreciate what I have more. An [...]
This is a mighty long post…. sorry…
I’ve gotten a few questions on how to pick Copic marker colors when starting out. It’s a good question – the markers are tools that will last a lifetime and you don’t want to waste your money on colors you won’t use.
But, everyone is an individual so its pretty [...]
