Sunshine

 

Hello and welcome.  Today I'd like to share a quick clean and simple card made using the Tractor Florals set from Conjurer of Dreams.   This image reminds me of my late step-grandmother's flower garden she used to have on their grape raisin farm.

 

After printing the image onto Hammermill white card stock, I layered it before adding some faux brads then adhered it to a green card.  I then added some Dollar Tree© wood sticker embellishments before highlighting the flower centers using stardust stickles.  Quick, simple and fabulous.

The Three Polar Bears

 

Hello and welcome.  Today I'd like to share with you a card made using the Polar Bear Fun Greyscale coloring book.  I love how these little guys turned out.  With the migraines I've been having lately, coloring helps me relax and focus on something else besides the pain.  

I started by printing them at 3 x 5 1/2 so they'd be easier to color and pulled out my Castle Arts Harmonious pencils and got to work.  I'm loving the muted colors of these pencils plus the varying shades of them.  Once the coloring was finished, I layered the main image before adding brads then distressed the outsides of the image panel.  After adding that to a navy card, I dug out some white/silver baker's twine I've had for a few years and added that to my card before highlighting parts of it using both ice stickles and star dust stickles.  It was then I decided to lightly blend some stormy sky distress ink, leftover from another project, to help "soften" the sky a bit.
