Here is my project I created. I used the ever so beautiful Girl Flower Butterfly digi image by Mitzi Sato-Wiuff. Today's project is a lovely surprise pop up card. I am all into the interactive cards nowadays. These cards are very fun to make and quite easy to do.

I colored the digi image with Copic markers and Lumiere acrylic paints. I wanted to add a lot of variation in the image by working with both. I used a white vintage rose lace trim for the background. I cut the lace into strips and adhered it to the pastel blue cardstock. The size of the card is 5" x 6". The image is matted on a pretty aqua cardstock and adhered with pop dots. I use the pop dots in about every project I create. The embellishments I added on the card are: a vintage scallop lace trim, mulberry paper flowers, a handmade beaded stick pin, turquoise flower rhinestones, 2 small metallic butterfly stickers, stickles, and glossy accents. I finished the card by stamping the sentiment "thinking of you," from a Studio G stamp I purchased at Michaels.

Here is a close up of the image:

Spring is in the Air!!! WOO HOO!!!

Here is my project I would like to share with you~



I used the digi image Believe in Tomorrow by Mitzi Sato-Wiuff. You can find her at HERE. I absolutely adore this image as the detail in it is just amazing. I colored her using copic markers. It was quite a task for me but I am totally happy with the results.

I used K&CO designer paper called Sparkly Sweet. I distressed the edges of the card using Tsuikineko's Brillance Pearlescent Sky Blue ink. I embellished with paper flowers, a pink rhinestone, stickles on the wings of the fairy & butterfly. The final touch was adding the two beaded stick pins and a lime green grosgrain ribbon bow.

Thank you for visiting and enjoy our magical hop.

WEEKEND GETAWAY~

Hello Friends!!!

I was away this past weekend with my two best friends. We went to my friend Iris's cabin and got to craft all weekend long. I made a bunch of cards. It was soooo relaxing to just hang out in our pjs and craft.

Here are a few of the cards I created:



I created this card using La Sylphide digi image by Mitzi Sato-Wiuff. I colored the image using copic markers. The background papers I used are from a gift pack I got with a magazine purchase. I added stickles, mulberry paper flowers, 3 dimensional word stickers, and one of my handmade beaded stick pins.

This card is now available in my ETSY SHOP.



This card I created using the sweet image of Isabella with Puppy Cocco by Sarah Kay. I also colored the image using copic markers. The background papers I used are from K&CO. I added mulberry paper flowers, stickles, rhinestones, and a vintage scallop lace trim distressed in a apricot colored ink.

This card is also available in my ETSY SHOP

Here is the last card I would like to share with you~



This card I created using the Country Girl digi image by Morgan Fitzsimons. Isn't she adorable? I love the color scheme I used. Lots of pinks, blues, and yellows. I colored the image with copic markers. The papers are from a stash of scrapbook papers I had tucked away in a storage container. I thought it went really well with this image. I added some vintage lace trim and distressed it with some blue chalk ink and then tied an organza ribbon bow.

WOW!!! Time has seriously been flying by way too fast!!! I need to really get hustling with all these things I want to do for Valentines. I don't actually celebrate Valentines but I do like all the things that revolve around this day of love. Hubs & I usually will go out to a nice dinner and just enjoy spending time together.

CUTE AS A LADY BUG~FOR YA!

Hello Friends!!!

Today I want to share my DT project for Scrapbook Stamp Society. I used the Cute as a Lady Bug digi image by Heather Valentin which can be found HERE.

I think this image is super cute and versatile for all sorts of cards (Birthday, Valentines day, Spring/Summer celebration, etc). She is soooo stinkin' cute!!

I decided to create a wall hanging as I was still thinking of the Hearts & Flowers theme. Here are the pics~



I covered a piece of medium weight chipboard with the Valentine Theme designer paper from K&CO. I added a red foam heart, vintage rose lace, hot pink lace trim, a dark pink organza ribbon, my handmade beaded stick pins, misc. paper flowers (Recollections and Wild Orchid Crafts), stickles, a pink puffy applique heart, and flatback pearls.

I colored the image using copic markers and added some sparkle with stickles as well as glossy accents. I wanted to add lots of fun colors when I created her. Of course I had to add some lovely pink in there. LOL!!!

Here are two close up pics of her:

WILA B. MINE LIL GOTHIE~

Hello Friends!!!

Today I want to share a project I created for another fantastic blog challenge over at Scrapbook Stamp Society Challenge Blog. The theme is "Hearts & Flowers." They are both things I love to work with.

I used Wila B. Mine Lil Gothie Digi image by Heather Valentin. You can find the image HERE. She is super duper cute!!!! When I first saw this image I just knew I had to have her.

Here is a treat box I created:



I used copic markers to color the image. I also decided to try adding some accents to the image with the Sakura gelly roll pens, glossy accents, and of course lots of stickles. I used designer cardstock paper from Recollections which I purchased at Michaels. I am so in love with the way this project turned out as I'm always experimenting with different mediums.

I embellished the treat box with lots of flowers (Recollection, Prima, WOC, and Iamroses). I also added some of the foam hearts which I had in my stash. I believe I bought them at Michaels.

Here are close up pics of Wila B. Mine Lil Gothie~

SCRAPBOOK STAMP SOCIETY PINK CHALLENGE~

Hello Friends!!!

I am posting my design team project for the Scrapbook Stamp Society Pretty in Pink Challenge. My favorite color is pink so how can I not join this challenge. *SMILE*

I decided to alter a cigar box. I have always wanted to alter one so this was my chance to create one.

I used the Marie Let them eat Cupcake digi stamp by Sherri Baldy.

I covered the cigar box with K&CO Valentine Specialty paper. I colored Marie with copic markers (B00, C1, E00, E13, E57, R20, R29, RV10, RV11, RV13, RV14, RV17, RV63, YG13, Y06). I distress the edges of the box with Apple Barrel's magenta acrylic paint and Daler Rowney's FW Pearlescent liquid acrylic in Platinum Pink. The embellishments are Wild Orchid Crafts paper flowers, misc. mini paper roses, stickles, rhinestones, Maya mist (doesn't say color on bottle *SIGH*) vintage scallop lace trim, and one of my handmade beaded stick pins with butterfly charm.



A close up pic of Marie Let them eat cupcake~



A side view of the front of the box accented with pink cardstock and a piece of vintage lace applique:




Here is the inside of the front cover. I decoupaged some rose cupcake liners for my background, K&CO Valentine's borders, mini paper roses, and one of my handmade stick pins. I added the same acrylic paints to add some distressing to it. I added an image I had in my stash of Marie. It's one of my favorites.




The inside of the box is lined with pink soft felt and edged with a beautiful rose trim. I also lined the box with more vintage lace I had in my stash. I enclosed some yummy goodies in it.



Thank you for stopping by and please vote for me at Scrapbook Stamp Society Pretty in Pink Challenge. I hope you enjoyed my project.
