Lake Scene!

Here is simple card I did, inspired from our new lake life!  I was so excited again to do the card that I did not keep track of the product that I used, sorry.  I love how this turned out!  I gave it to a friend who was recovering in the hospital, it was well received.  Eeeeee I love crafting.  Next card I will try to remember all the deets for the next card.  I do recall the ink I used is from Tim Holtz but can't recall the colours.  I am just enjoying the moment! 

Hello!!!

Oh my goodness!  It has been almost a year since I have posted anything and that is crazy.  The last year has been a world wind, moved, started a new job and bought a new home.  Finally have the craft room almost all set up, our new home view has inspired me and I have been playing.  I coloured after about 6-7 months and thought I may have lost all that I had learned.  It is coming back, tee hee!  Here is a card I started with a friend at a crop in the beginning of June and just got around to finishing it. 

I will have to get back to you with some of the deets as I have to run down and look at the product I used as it has completely fallen out of my head.  I used my prisma pencils and unfortunately I did not mark down the colours as I did the image so am at a loss for that too.  Guess some stuff has fallen out of my head.  Ahhhhhh it is all coming back. lol!  The image, I am pretty sure, is a Moe Manning from Mo's Digital Pencil.  I messed up on the one eye and altered the image the image to fix my boo boo by adding an extra ear and shading the eye to cover my mess up.  So there you have it, my first card or any craftiness for the past 6-7 months.  I have missed crafting.

My kinda view!

Good evening!  I have been away for a bit but I have still been crafting!  I have taken a couple painting classes and decided to do one of my own.  I love the water and with the smoky skies here, I decided to pain this, it turned out beautifully.

I sued a canvas I purchased from Michael's craft store and acrylic paint.  Stay tuned to see what I creat next time. 

Birthday Greetings!

I absolutely adore these images, they make my heart smile!  That frog kills me, and that lady bug is the cutest!  I had such fun colouring these darlin's; which I can not recall the company.  I saved the digi's into a folder named dds Store Frog, Ladybug and Across the Bridge.

I coloured the images with copic markers and used prisma pencils to do the shading and add some detail.  I used some paper from my stash and added flowers from Wild Orchid crafts and the dragon fly is from my stash.  The orange sprigs are from Kinder O and the dies are from memory box, except the wire; which is from La La Land Crafts.  I added blue glitter, from my stash, to the water to make it sparkle.

Xmas Card!

Ok this my last Christmas card for awhile but it turned out pretty well for having no plan when I started, lol!  I entered the card in CHNC Challenge 384, anything goes as long as it's Christmas, optional theme: include a bell or bells. 

I used Kraft Cardstock, paper from DCWV, The Merry Christmas Stack, The sentiment is from Memory Box, the bow and I can not recall where the sprigs die is from  and the ribbon, charm and gems are from my stash. 

More Christmas!

I am baaaaack!!!  Here is another simple card I created and entered in Clean & Simple, Fall to Layout #68-Take Two, sketch is below.   I know it is another Christmas card but remember......I am stocking up my stash to sell at a local event coming in June.  Plus I love making Christmas Cards, giggle.  And again, relatively simple compared to my norm.

The cardstock is black bazzil and the matte is from The Merry Christmas Stack 12 x 12 from DCWV.  The center piece is Silver & Gold Paper pack from Close to My Heart, not sure if it is still available cause I tend to hoard paper, giggle!    The white sprigs are cut with Memory Box dies and the flowers/gems are from my stash.  AKA, I have had them so long I have no idea where they are from lol!

Simple Card!

Here is another cute and simple card; which are definitely not my norm.  I used the sketch from Freshly Made Sketches 335 .  

I used white and black bazzil cardstock and the moose scene is from Dee's Distinctively Dies.  I added some gems and ribbon from my stock.  There you have it, plain and simple lol!   

Christmas card!

Here is an image that I coloured awhile ago and I just got around to making it into a card.  I know it is a Christmas card but I am working on a stash to sell at a local event in June!!  And I love making Christmas cards, there I said it!  lol!!  I drew in and coloured the trees, that was new for me and I won't lie, a bit of a challenge.  I have entered my card in the Christmas at Sweet Stampin' Challenge.

The paper is from BoBunny, Noteworthy  29 die-cut journal pages and the base is white bazzil cardstock.  The pearls from my stash. I can't for the life of me remember where the image is from but I coloured when it was a class with Kit & Clowder.  I coloured the image with prisma pencils.

Spring has Sprung!

Hello and welcome back!  I was playing with this card for some time and had not quite figured out what to do with it.  I coloured the image with prisma pencils and added flowers using spring colours and this is the result!  The flowers are an assortment of Prima, Wild Orchid Crafts and the buttons are from my stash!  I have no idea where they are from and have had them for some time.  I used lace from Noor Designs and white Bazzil Cardstock.  The image is stamped on craft paper and for the life of me I can not recall where the stamp is from!   I added the feather and ribbon from my stash and there you have it!

Fishtastic!!!!!

I know Father's Day is a ways away but I couldn't help making this card, I was itching to colour this image and well........This happened.  Giggle!  I coloured the Art Impression image with Prisma crayons and used Tim Holtz Wild Honey Distress ink by Ranger for the sun.  The Sun and sentiment dies are spellbinder and the net, fishing rod, hooks worm and fish were cut with Fantasy dies.  The boat, oars and tie post  inside the card were cut with dies from Cherry Lynn Designs, B649 Fishing Boat Set.   

The sentiments and the boat, oars and posts were distressed with Tim Holts Pine Needles and Gathered Twigs distress ink by Ranger.  The paper is from my stash, sorry I don't know what collection as I scooped it from a friend.  He he he.  The card is made with White Bazzil Card stock and Green Bazzil Card Stock; which was embossed with a cat tail folder from Sizzix.  The Cat tails were lightly distressed with Tim Holtz Black Soot Distress ink by Ranger.
