Glamorous Fairy

Hi everyone and Happy Monday! It feels so good to be back with a project for you. I'm sorry that I was gone all last week. I finally got some time in the craft room yesterday and my goal is to have a project to share with you every day this week. We'll see how I do :)





For my card today, I decided to ink up this gorgeous new image illustrated by Caron Vinson for Sweet Pea Stamps. This particular image is called Glam Goth Fairy and I think she's beautiful! I truly love Caron Vinson's work, her images are truly a dream to color. I colored the image with copics and then sponged around the image with SU's Bashful Blue ink using my Tim Holtz blending tool. Next I lightly added some Stardust Stickles to her wings. I then created my card base using SU cardstock. My DP is from DCWV (All Dressed Up Stack). This is definitely a different color scheme for me, but I really like how the blues and greens go together. For some finishing touches, I added pearls, a bow (tied with my Bow Easy) and roses from Wild Orchid Crafts. What do you think?

Well, that's it from me today. Thank you all so much as always for stopping by. I hope your week is off to a great start. See you back here tomorrow :)

Scorpio

Hi everyone and Happy Thursday! I hope you all are having a wonderful week. I decided to take a short break from making Christmas cards to showcase another gorgeous image from Sweet Pea Stamps. This particular image is illustrated by the incredibly talented Caron Vinson. It's called Scorpio and you can find it HERE. I colored the image with copics and then lightly inked around the image with purple ink using my Tim Holtz blending tool. Next I created my card base out of SU cardstock. My DP is from DCWV (the Black Currant stack . . . this paper is GORGEOUS!). For some finishing touches, I added a bow (tied with my Bow Easy), pearls, Primas, and roses from Wild Orchid Crafts. What do you think?

Well, that's it from me today, I have to get to work. I hope you all have a wonderful day and thanks so much for stopping by. I'll see you back here tomorrow with another Christmas card :)

I'm Back with a New Sweet Pea Card :)

Hi everyone and Happy Monday! I hope you all had a wonderful weekend! I'm so sorry it's been so long since I've posted. Last week was an incredibly stressful week but, thank goodness, it's over and I get to look forward to Thanksgiving with my family later this week :) Are any of you out there Black Friday shoppers? My husband and I are, we always get amazing deals on Black Friday. I plan to get some crafty things, Michael's is having an awesome sale :) Can't wait! :) Anyway, onto my card for today.




I'm so excited to share my card with you today. Lynette, the owner of Sweet Pea Stamps has added some incredible new artists to her stamp designs. This particular image is illustrated by the amazing Caron Vinson. I LOVE her illustrations, they are absolutely gorgeous! This particular image is called Blue Fairy (of course, I didn't color mine blue :) ). I colored my image with copics. I then sponged around my image lightly with purple ink using my Tim Holtz blending tool. Next I added some Stardust Stickles to her wings and some purple glitter from my purple glitter Sakura gel pen to her bracelets. Next I created my card base out of SU cardstock. The yummy DP is from DCWV (love this paper!). For some finishing touches, I added pearls, Primas, roses from Wild Orchid Crafts, and a butterfly, which was made by Prima (I got it at Michael's). What do you think?

Well, that's it from me today. I hope you all have a wonderful day. Thanks so much as always for stopping by.
