Ooh La La

 

Hello and welcome.  Today I'd like to share a fun ATC made using Conjurer of Dreams set called Ooh La La. I LOVE this set of 4 corsets - sexy enough to be risque but still "clean" enough to keep it PG13. LOL  After combining the corset digitally with the following COD sets: Pink Silk, Black Silk, Blue Silk and the black Photo Corners; I printed it out onto Neenah white card stock before adhering to a black scrap.  I then pulled out some autumn and thunderstorm gems, added those to the ATC and finished it off.  

 

I'm happy with how it turned out especially since my husband wasn't doing too good the other day.  It's been one step forward and three steps back for him lately.  Plus my ever present migraines adding to the mix with the summertime heat.  Ugh!

Better At The Beach

 

Hello and welcome.  Today I'd like to share a card made using the new Beach Huts stamp set from Pajama Crafter Stamps. After stamping the images in memento tuxedo black ink, I colored everything using my Ohuhu markers before stippling some Tim Holtz distress inks around them and to fill in the white spaces before layering and adding some faux brads.  I then dug out a seagull set of dies I had just received and die cut several seagulls from white scraps.  After adding some going grey/basic grey ink, I adhered them to the card using pop dots.  I then added my border and some bling to finish my card off.  I'm pretty happy with how it turned out.

Hello and welcome. Today begins a new challenge over at Pammie's Inky Pinkies and this week we're sponsored by Sheepski Designs.  I would like to thank Andrea for her sponsorship.  My card today uses the Mindy Christmas image and reminds me so much of my cats at Christmas time.  After printing the image on hammermill white card stock, I colored it using Copic markers before stamping a long retired Stampin Up saying.  A few clear gems finish the card off.

Loon At The Lake

 

Hello and welcome.   Today I'd like to share a card made using an image I've had colored for some time, just hadn't finished it to a card.  The Loon Scene is from Whimsy Stamps and is just beautiful.  I see so many uses for this stamp.

 

The main image is stamped onto Neenah white card stock and colored using Castle Arts colored pencils and a blender pencil.  I then lightly stippled some tumbled glass distress ink before adding some silver photo corners I've had for years, and I mean years.  The card was made by stippling broken china distress ink over a slim line lily pad stencil from Picket Fence Studios.  Once I had the layered image added to my card, I added some bling, ribbon, diamond ice stickles and a small punched frog to place on one of the lily pads.  I'm pretty happy with how it turned out.

The Watermill

 

Hello and welcome.  Today I'd like to share a card made from another one of the images I colored while my husband had been in the hospital using a digital Watermill image from Impression Obsession.  The image is one I've had for a while printed out and just hadn't gotten to yet.  It is colored using Castle Arts Watercolor pencils and once layered, I added some faux brads to it to help keep the postage price down.  The only embellishment used is stardust stickles to highlight the water.

All Things Are Possible

 

 

Hello and welcome.  Today I'd like to share with you a card made from one of the images I colored while my husband was still in the hospital. The stamp set is a retired one from Kraftin Kimmie Stamps and is called Whimsical Wishes.  I've had this set for a while and just hadn't used it yet.

 

I started out by coloring the images using Castle Arts Watercolor pencils, and a blender pencil, before stenciling the clouds and grass using Tim Holtz tumbled glass and mowed lawn distress inks before layering and adding some faux brads.  The final touch was adding some green bling to finish it off.

In My Heart

 

 

Hello and welcome.  Today I'd like to share with you a card made using one of the images I had colored while my husband was in the hospital.  He is slowly making progress.  Slowly.  My card uses a retired Creative Worship digital image called Melody of Love.  

 

I started out by printing it onto Neenah white card stock before coloring using my Castle Arts Watercolor pencils and a blender pencil before lightly blending some left over tumbled glass distress ink from a previous project using a blender brush before layering and adding silver brads.  I then added it to a dry embossed green card before creating my own floral spray underneath using Martha Stewart punches and a paper crimper. The final touch was color spritzing some green galore ink and adding some bling to the flower centers on the main image panel.  I'm pretty happy with how it turned out.
