My Friend Flakey Colouring

Hi everyone! I have one more colouring to share. This one is from Sugar Nellie  and is called My Friend Flakey! I have coloured this digi with Copic markers and used fine glitter on the bottom as well as Crystal Stickles on the snowflakes. Don't you think he is going to look great on a Christmas card?

Sharing Weekend Colouring

Hi everyone. Today I am sharing some colourings I completed over the weekend.  Here are the 2 from Lacy Sunshine Stamps by artist Heather Valetin. Heather's digi's are so much fun to colour up. 

For this image I merged 2 stamps Mistletoe's Ornament and Coco's Holiday Ornament. They have been coloured with Copic markers and I used Snow-tex and glitter to give the snow dimension. Next step cards.

Nair Indian Maiden Easel Card

Here is my entry for the Team A November challenge.  I was given a digi called Nair Indian Maiden by artist Heather Valentin.  For this challenge we were asked to use Autumn colours.  I decided to make a shaped easel card and cut the card shape out with my Cricut.  Paper, burlap and embellishments are from my stash.  Using burlap is a first for me and I must admit I quite like the effect. 

You can find Nair Indian Maiden with her friends at  Lacy Sunshine Stamp - the Crafter's Candy Shoppe.

Rory's Christmas Unicorn

My inspirational card today is showcasing a wonderful stamp called Rory's Christmas Unicorn.  I had so much fun colouring her up and creating the night snow globe.   

You can find Rory and all her Christmas friends at Lacy Sunshine Stamps.

The coloured image was coloured with Copics and fussy cut to resemble a snow globe. 


Stars were added using acrylic paint. Snow-tex sprinkled with glitter make up the base. 
Lines in the blanket were done with a white pen, Red Spica pen and Olive Spica pen.  
All paper and embellishments are from my stash.

Why Not A Purple Snowflake

It's that time of year!  You are going to see a lot of Christmas Cards popping up on my blog.  Today I am sharing one with Iced Bleeding Heart Flower Pot Pretty from Lacy Sunshine Stamps.  

Thought I would try something different and match the paper to the background.  The paper and flower were in on of Lacy Sunshine Crafters Candy boxes.  The digital stamp was coloured using Copics.  Lace is from my stash.

Sammi Boo's Hot Cocoa Christmas Card

Hi everyone! Thanks for stopping by.  Tonight I am sharing a Christmas card using the image Sammi Boo's Hot Cocoa.  She is one of the wonderful digital stamps that can be found at Lacy Sunshine Stamps.  Heather has a great selection of Christmas digi's for all your Christmas cards and crafts.

I went out of my comfort zone with this stamp and decided to create a scene.  A bit ambitious for me .. like I know how to colour trees!  Thankfully Copics blend nicely and hide some of the "what were you thinking" marks.  When all was said and done it all came together in the end.

Frozen Sweet Pea Blooming Beauty Christmas Card

Hi everyone. I am sharing a Christmas card I made using a previously shared colouring of  Frozen Sweet Pea Blooming Beauty from the talented Heather Valentin.  

I started with snowflake accents but they just were not working for me tonight.  This card needed flowers and sparkle!  Unfortunately the camera didn't pick up the sparkle from the ribbon mesh that is covering the card background ... take my word for it, it looks great!  






The flowers leaves and silver bits  are from my stash.  The leaves and silver branches are cut from dollar store accent sprigs I picked up last year. The ribbon mesh is from one of Lacy Sunshine's Crafter's Candy Boxes.
