Fairy Tale Bug

Hi All,

Oh wow is it super busy!  School starts on Monday for me and textbooks are NO joke!  Plus I have been redoing my stamp room/office/study area and I have ikea boxes all over my house!  Hopefully it will look how I am picturing in my head!  I am realizing how much craft stuff I do have though!

I used fairy tale bug on my card today because school is definitely on my mind.  I wanted to color him different and used all kinds of colors on him.  Of course I used my copics.

I kept it really simple with some twine!

Enjoy!

Fall Colored Chloe

Hi All,

Have you ever colored an image and absolutely LOVED how it turned out???  I did and look at her!  I love how the shading of her hair turned out!  I used Chloe by Elizabeth Bell for Whimsy Stamps.  I stamped her using memento black and colored her with my copics.  I used Blossom Nestabilities and cut her out and with the image still in the nestie I sponged some memento green ink around the edges to give it a little depth.  I paper pierced around the edges (HUGE tip is to adhere ALL of the top layers together--not the base--and paper pierce through there and then use pop dots so you don't squash your pokes)



Have a great week!

Party Girls

Hi All,

I used the super cute Party Girls from Art Impressions.  Usually I am overwhelmed with larger images because I always have trouble getting nice, clean, crisp impressions.  Boy was this a no brainer!  A perfect impression the FIRST time!  Plus these girls are super fun to color!  I love using copics and this was a fun image.

Hope you enjoyed and have a wonderful week!
