Twilight Angel

I am so happy you stopped by to visit me today...hope you are having a great week !  Mine has been good just really busy.  We are getting to the 2 week count down till we move and I know the time is just going to fly by KWIM !!!!  I am really excited and can't wait to put together my new crafting room...it is always fun to get a new twist to things.

It's time for another new challenge at CMC Copic Challenge group, this time we want to see you fluff those feathers..
Color an image that has feathers or make it look like feathers---you can use bird images of course or get creative and create a feathered look on clothing, flowers or something else. We want to see the texture so keep the stoke lines visible.  Winner of this challenge will receive a $25.00 gift certificate to The Paper Temptress , and also be entered into the monthly draw for a $50.00 Gift Certificate to Oozak.com!  Now those are some great prizes so grab your copics....find some feathers and come play !

My image is a digital image from Crafts and Me, she is called "Twilight" I just fell in love with her as she has such a peaceful look.  I have printed her out on Cryogen white paper and she is colored with copics, with stickles added  randomly.  I have used Nestabilites Labels Five to frame her, I traced around the outside of the nestie so she would fit and just cut it out and then put her on the pink backing and trimmed close to the nestie shape....custom job KWIM heheheh !  My DP's are Basic Greys "Bittersweet"  I have used the Magnolia DooHickey die "Antique Lace" and the "Flourish", you can get these at Magnolia-licious.  The roses are from Wild Orchid Crafts.  So what are you waiting for find an image with some feathers and come play with us !

This challenge is all about "Coloring Whites" My image is printed on Cryogen white...so I had to use some antique linen distress in on the edges and also on the frame.  My frame is cut on the wishblade and then I have used the swiss dots folder to emboss the card base.  I have used 3 variations of coloring white.

Hello Little Butterfly !

Hi there....how is your week going?  Mine has been pretty nice and the weather here has just been beautiful !
I think this little image is one of my all time favorites....and then as soon as I seen it she reminded me of the day at the Botanical Gardens with Suzanne where a little butterfly landed on her and hitched a ride for a bit.  I could not resist and had to make this for Suzanne and now that she has received it, I can share it with you.

I have used numerous punches and dies....fiskars butterfly border, MS butterfly punch, Magnolia vintage tag, nestabilites scalloped oval, and Marianne swirls....I did not write down the beautiful DP's I am sorry, and then there is the lace....thanks Gail for suggesting it...I think it is just the perfect touch !  I added some stickles to the butterfly and the swirls, I inked the edges with a really pretty stamping up ink rasberry I believe. I hope you have enjoyed my little card .

Happy May Day ! I hope you had a nice weekend I had an amazing one, spent all day Sat with my good friend Gail just chatting, stamping and coloring and making cards and we enjoyed a great lunch at Red Robin it is really nice to have someone who shares the same interest to spend time with.  Today I just did yard work and had a nice dinner for my son and his family.  I figured I better enjoy and play cause the next couple of months are going to be pretty busy.  Our offer was accepted on the big house so will be moving in about the 6th of June, then I need to get this house ready to rent out.  I am really excited about the move and will share pictures with you.
