Rodeo Queen Rory


Hey!

Today is the launch of a new group called Heather Valentin's Coloring Without Boundaries. It's a fun coloring community for all ages.


I got to play with Lacy Sunshine's Rodeo Queen Rory and she is colored with Promarkers. The image is from the All about Rory Coloring Set #14. Normally I don't color whole scenes as I like to fussy cut my images. This was challenging for me. I like how it turned out. Still learning to color as I never have followed a class in coloring. I notice do the difference of coloring a few years back and now. Still in progress but that's so much fun. It's like a big adventure.


Thanks for stopping by and enjoy your day!

My Fair Lady


Hey!

Today is a new Flashback Friday at Sassy Studio Designs featuring My Fair Lady. She will be a freebie on the SSD Facebook Fan Page voor 24 hours only.

I colored this beauty using a fineliner for all the small black parts and the rest of the image is colored with cool grey (for the white parts), black, ice grey 5 & 3, pinks, browns and skin tones.
Had decided to make a tag. They always come in handy. The tag is made from black leather look cardstock. Used products; white gelpen, white vinyl lace, black and white tape, filmstrip die cut, crocheted flower, gem, made a little pin, and white feathers. I love how it turned out.

Thanks for stopping by and enjoy your day!

The Secrets of Venice



Hey!

Happy to announce that I am part of the New Release Team at Stamps by Julia Spiri as of this month. So excited to be able to work with her gorgeous images.

Here's my first card using one of the 6 new images from the "Venice Collection".
This image is called "The secrets of Venice" and she is colored with Promarkers. I seem to turn to this color combo more often. I got a new paper block and saw the feathers and had to use it. Also just bought some feathers so that came in handy too. The fan behind the image is made with a half circle out of a piece of scrap paper.

If you'd like to receive a freebie you only have to subscribe to the newsletter that'll keep you posted on all the news regarding SJS.

There's also a fortnight challenge at the SJS blog so feel free to join in the fun for a chance to win some of the awesome images of your choice.

Thanks for stopping by and enjoy your day!

Hugs,
Kitty

Cozy Kittens

 Hey!

Today I made this card using sketch #33 from i {heart} sketches and the Free Stamp of the Month January by From the Heart Stamps.

This cute image is called "Cozy Kittens" and I colored it with my Spectrum Noir alcohol markers. First time I used them. Love how the color. Maybe even better than my Promarkers. I think I will combine my markers and use them both as alcohol markers can be combined. I used a lovely paw print embossing folder (Crafts Too). I love this folder. I inked it with Versa Color (38 Sky Blue).

Thanks for stopping by and enjoy your day!

Hey!

Happy New Year to you all. Hope that 2016 may bring you lots of joy!

Today starts a new fortnight challenge at CCC Digi Creations and it's themed Anything Goes. Our first sponsor this year is Lemon Shortbread.

I got to play with this beauty called "80s New Wave Punk Girl" and I colored her with Promarkers. The card base is red linen cardstock.
