Burst of Colors

Happy Saturday Crafting Friends! My creation today features Cozy Cardi by Time for Tea Designs from Whimsy's latest rubber stamp release as well as some dies from the recent Clearly Whimsy release. Cozy Cardi was colored using pencils and alcohol markers and the outline was doodled using a Copic Multiliner Pen. The sentiment is die cut with the 'Hello' die from the new  'Say What - Speech Bubbles' die set.  The small die cut stars are from the same set. The wavy purple and yellow layers are created using the 'Stiched Border Die Trio' Here is a closer look on the image. I also added some purple shades to her brunette hair. Thanks for stopping by and enjoy your weekend! Hugs,

Hello Friends :-) Here is a Whimsy Stamps creation I want to share with you. A CAS card I made today using the awesome Witch Hat Sentiment Set by Raindrop Echo Designs again.

Then I stamped the witch hat sentiment and added some sequins to embellish the card a little . Thanks for stopping by Hugs,

Happy Saturday Everyone! Here is my second guest designer creation for Shaky A. digi stamps . This time I've played with Margot , isn't she cute?   She's been colored with Copics and the card's made in a more clean and simple style than the one with Penelope the other day. The sentiment comes with the stamp and the papers are from a Glitz Design paper pad. Everything else is from my stash. A close-up: And a shot from another angle: There's also a FB group to share all things Shaky A. HERE and a BLOG where the DT is sharing their amazing creations . Make sure you stop by and visit! Thanks for having me Alberto, it was a pleasure to design with your amazing images! :-) Hugs,

Happy TGIF! Here's a little Halloween inspiration using Whimsy's Witch Hat Sentiment Set by Raindrop Echo Designs.

The 'simply wicked' sentiment is also from the Witch Hat Sentiment Set. DP is from an older Basic Grey collection .

Happy Hump Day Everyone! Today I like to share a creation with you as a guest designer for Shaky A. digi stamps . I love Alberto's stamp line and was thrilled when he asked me if I would like to guest design. He recently opened his Etsy shop Shaky A. Planet where you will find all his stamps available for immediate download . Some wonderful inspiration from the DT can be found on the Shaky A. blog HERE. For my card I used Penelope and I colored her using Copics. I sprinkled some shabby white embossing powder around the image. The sentiment comes with the image. Dies used are from Memory Box, which I also sprinkled and embossed with shabby silver embossing powder, and Magnolia. Flowers, lace and ribbon are from my stash. Filmstrip is from Tim Holtz and the papers are Maja Design. A closer look: Thanks for stopping by today and I'll have another Shaky A. creation to show here on my blog later this week.
