Spring!!!



Gosh I almost feel funny about posting this card. Yesterday it was sooooo beautiful outside and I was feeling the Sprintime vibe! This morning I wake up and we have a thick layer of frost on the ground. Well, I did make this card yesterday when the air was clean and the sun was shining and bright in the sky. Like the girl in my card all I wanted to do was face it and take it all in.

This card was made for the Fabulous Friday Challenge at the PCP group i {heart} copics. The challenge is sponsored this week by the lovely Michelle Perkett who's image I used on my card. You can get her images here. The challenge was to use a sketch provided and to use the copic colors R22, B04 and BG11 or what you have that is close, somewhere in your project.  You can pick up your copics at a great price like I do at i{heart}papers. While you are there take a look at everything thing else they offer.  You will be amazed and not leave with out a full cart.


I of course colored her with my copics and then I added a few sprinkles of stickles to give her sparkle. You know I rarely do not make a card without them. Added a ribbon rose and fronds with my MS punch. The circle was embossed with polka dots and she is ready for Spring.

So join us on over at the Fabulous Friday Challenge and show us what you've got! I just know it will be FANTASTIC!!!
I will also enter this into Michelle Perkett's challenge.

Dream!!!

Just another quick one that I made. I went on the SNR group for Michelle Perkette to post my card from yesterday and they were having a quick challenge and you all know how I love challenges so I thought I would whip something up QUICK. When I say quick I mean it! I litteraly had little time to get it done and posted. I didn't win but had fun doing it! It was a freebie and here it is!


Probably the shortest post I ever did!!!

Believe!!!!!

The word Believe happens to be part of my MANTRA! Actually the whole thing is
"BELEIVE IN YOURSELF"
I guess I just felt if I didn't then how could I expect anyone else to.  When I decided to purchase one of Michelle Perkett's images I looked and fell in like with all of them but this one spoke to me. So this is the one that my pocket book opened up to.

I colored her with my copics and blended like crazy especially her hair. I wanted that ocean look. I then took my new scribble paints and painted all her pearls white. I wanted some more dimension so I started painting some more on the scales of her body! Now I followed the sketch from Michelles blog and it asked for three embellishments on the top left so I added the star fish to compliment the image. Those along with parts of the lovely mermaid got a nice dusting of stickles. The oval behind her was embossed with QuickKutz polka dots.  I added a couple of gems here and there and a sheer bow and here she is.  I think she is a beauty!!!
