Happy Birthday

I found this sketch on Dina's blog . Her blog is one of my favorite blogs to visit. This is my version, which I'm really happy with. The flower stamps are by Autumn Leaves, the words by Hero Arts and the cupcake is a small stamp that I found in my stash. Not sure who makes it, but it had a price tag of 99 cents. I used an Azurite and a Prussian blue fluid chalk pad, by Colorbox, to stamp and to edge the layered papers and finally added some Ranger Stickles to finish it off.

Puzzle Stamps

This card was made using Magenta puzzle stamps, painted with watercolor pencils and highlighted with Prismacolor pencils

Hearts

This is done with Magenta Peel-Offs, watercoloured with pencils and highlighted with Pearlex paints.

Her Head in the Clouds

I had fun making some art using an old calendar page. Learned that Versafine does not dry on glossy unless you give it a blast of heat.

Thanks to my Altered Designs buddies for the tip. It worked!

Happy New Year

Alas, another year has come and gone.

May your lives be filled with good health, love, peace and tranquility. I hope everyone gathers a little inspiration each day and is fortunate enough to have the time to do something that they love.

Wishing you all a happy and artful 2008!

Another skinny!

Listen!

Another Skinny

The background stamp is another I received for Xmas. Thanks sis!!!!!

The clipart was provided by Kelly of Altered Designs and there are a few other stamps used (Magenta, Quietfire Design and Stampington).

I really enjoyed making this piece.

Skinny's are Addicting

I got this fabulous fountain stamp for Christmas. It's a perfect size for this format. I added a couple of small stamps to finish it off.

I'm quite happy with it.

My First Skinny!!!!!

I found this format really tough. I'm so used to doing ATCs and cards.

I dug out some stamps that I have not used for a very LONG time and had a lot of fun creating this piece.

Thanks, Kelly for inspiring me and providing the clipart!

Another New Stamp

This is another stamp I purchased from Rubberstamp Avenue. I've stamped the image in black Versafine and clear embossed. Next, I've colored this with watercolor pencils and layered it onto a piece of torn blue paper that has been stamped with a Magenta stamp using Whispers Starry, Starry Night dye ink.

New Stamps

I had so much fun today playing with some new toys. The scalloped edge squares are from a Cuttlebug die set I found at Walmart.

The crane image, which I absolutely love, is by Rubberstamp Avenue. I so love their stamps! I stamped in black Versafine and embossed with clear e/p. The image is then colored with Prismacolor pencils and watercolor pencils.

Thanks for stopping by.
