A Couple Of Last Minute Projects

 
Hello and welcome.  Can you believe it's only a few more days until Christmas and the week after that is New Year's Day?  I will be glad to see 2024 go away.  It has not been a good year for me - health wise or personally.  However, I digress.  Today I'd like to share a couple of cards I've made over the last couple of weeks using Conjurer of Dreams images.
 
First up is a quick card made using an image from Stained Glass Gothic Christmas Windows (which was also the image for the last tag challenge in the Facebook group.  I just took the tag I had made and adhered it to a dry embossed card base.  After adding some more ribbon, and sequins, my card was finished.  It's not my best but I was dealing with a nasty migraine at the time.

My second card uses one of the images from the Victorian Ladies Greyscale Coloring Book.  I started by printing my chosen image at 3.5 x 5 to make it easier on my eyes while coloring.  Then, taking both Lyra Skintone and Castle Arts Harmonious colored pencils, I colored the image before using a blender pencil and eraser to soften some of the edges/highlights.  Once the coloring was finished, I layered her and added purple brads before adhering her to a dry embossed lavender card base.  The final touches, were adding some highlights using Castle Arts Gel Pens along with some purple/lavender bling.

Thanks for stopping by today.  Have a very Merry Christmas and a safe New Year.

  5. Can't disagree about a large part of 2024, but the last of it has been good for me. Maybe your luck will turn as well. Very nice coloring on the blue card and I love that red background on the other one. Happy Happy Merry Merry! xoxo
