Words to Live By

Hello and Happy Thursday! Today's make and share is a large Butterfly fluttering in with a piece of friendly advice or words to live by..whichever way you intrepret it.

This card measures 6x6; I rarely create cards this big but I wanted the butterfly to take center stage. The image and sentiment are part of the Change is Coming Mega Digital Set by Graciellie Designs. I've colored the image with Spectrum Noir Alcohol Markers, embellishments added are black gems on the butterfly body and Wink of Stella on the wings.

Until Next Time, Happy Crafting!

Dandelion Day

Hello and Happy Tuesday! Today's post is a short one featuring an adorable image from Sherry West Art. I've colored the image using Spectrum Noir Alcohol Markers and the designer papers are from the new Carta Bella "Summer" 6x6 paper pad.

Isn't she adorable waving her Dandelion Wand? I die cut the focal, tag and sentiment with dies from Kat Scrappiness, mounted on foam pads and added golden twine for detail. The sentiment is from a very old Recollections set but I love the font and the set has so many wonderful sentiments.

Lastly, I used a Silver Wink of Stella pen to enhance the Stars on her headband and scattered enamel dots.

Have a great day and until next time, Happy Crafting!

Friends Like You

Hello and Happy Thursday! Today's make and share features a large bloom and alcohol marker coloring.

This gorgeous bloom and sentiment are part of the Friends Like You digital set from Graciellie Designs. This is a lovely image and I chose to make it quite large for this A2 sized Sweet & Simple card.

I colored the image with Spectrum Noir Alcohol Markers, added Wink of Stella on the highlighted areas of the petals and black gems for a finishing touch. I cut the thinnest of black mats for the focal panel and mounted on a Neenah Solar White Classic Crest 110 lb. card base.

Until next time, Happy Crafting!

Paper Funday Challenge - February 2021

Hello and Happy Wednesday! Today starts a new monthly challenge at The Paper Funday Challenges. The theme this month is Anything Goes with Optional Twist of: Love is in the Air and we have two wonderful sponsors: Sherri Baldy's Besties and Hetty Clare.

For my design team project, I created a Valentine's Day card for a swap partner using a new Fluffy Besties image that I thought was perfect for such an occasion.

I've colored the image using Spectrum Noir Alcohol Markers, designer papers from the Recollections "Love and Devotion" 12x12 paper pad and sentiment from the Cardz TV "Mini Messages" stamp set. I followed Sketch #30 from Cardz TV Free Sketches and popped up the small left panel and focal image using foam pads. Finally, the only bells and whistles used was a bit of Wink of Stella on the hair band, the chocolate box ribbon, her lips and earrings.

Please join us this month for the challenge at The Paper Funday. We hope to inspire you with our team projects and cannot wait to see what you've created using the Anything Goes with Optional Twist theme.

Until next time, Happy Crafting!
