Hedgehog Wish

Hello again, friends! Thanks for stopping by today! I recently purchased some DARLING digital stamps from Lee Holland's Etsy Shop, and I took some time over this break to do some coloring and card making with them! Take a peek at today's offering...

I have to apologize for the mildly blurry photos. My camera is having issues and is driving me crazy. ;) I colored this darling hedgehog image using colored pencils, then added some Stickles for added texture and shine. The sentiment is by Paper Smooches. I punched it out and layered it with punches from Stampin' Up!, then added some bling!

The card was prepped with some patterned paper from Stampin' Up!, a doily from Doodlebug Designs, ribbon from The Stamps of Life, and a button and twine from my stash. I love the way this turned out, and I hope you do, too! I can't wait to hear your thoughts in the comments below!

Hello, Dear Friend!

Hello again! :)  I've got another darling card to share with you--I was practicing my Fun & Cute style this weekend, could you tell?!  LOL, this time I used my Spectrum Noir markers to color the image...come see!

Here's the card~

For these fabulous challenges~

Word Art Wednesday: Anything Inspirational Goes

Lacey Sunshine: Use a Sentiment

Suzy Bee's Bloomin' Challenge: Anything Goes

Doodle Pantry: Anything Goes

Mema's Challenge: Who or What Makes Your Heart Smile

I've used another darling digi from Diane's Daydream Designs, Spectrum Noir markers to color the image, patterned paper and twine from my stash, glitter by Studio G, and card stock by Stampin' Up!.

To create that fuzzy area around the butterfly (trying to make it look like the wings are fluttering), I colored the image on the original card with blue tones and then used a blender pen to feather it outwards.  I then colored another butterfly, cut it out, and popped it up on top!  And added glitter!!!

I think this card is destined to go to a very sweet friend--my friend make my heart smile! :)

I've got just one more post for today and then I'll leave you all alone!  I hope you take some time to create today and that you join in the fun of these fabulous challenges!  HUGS and happy stamping to you all!

More Puppy Love

So, my puppy just ran downstairs after hearing me open a package of Girl Scout cookies.  Hmmm...I think your cuddles have a darker and more sinister meaning right now, little girl! LOL!  I just LOVE my puppy girl!  So I couldn't just make ONE Valentine with a pup on it, and I just bought the most darling digi that is perfect to show some puppy love!
