Fall is in the Air

Good Sunday evening, hope you had a great weekend ! I did got a few thing accomplished on the old to do list and still had time to play :)  I made this little card for a challenge that Suzanne Dean gave us on the CMC Copic Challenge group.  The challenge was to color a "Monochromatic image and  copics must be used.  My image is "Fall Birgitta" and she is colored using E30's, E50's, E9 and E43 on Cryogen White cardstock.

I have followed the sketch #121 at Friday Sketchers.  The DP's are Cosmo Cricket, the Autumn line which I have had in my stash for a couple of years.  My flower is handmade you can find instructions @ SCS for the fan fold flower.  I am going to enter this into a few little challenges,
Pile it On - Cute "n" Charming
A Spoon Full of Sugar #122 - anything goes
Tuesday Throw down - paper pleating
Stamp Something - Fall Colors
Well that is it for me, I hope you find some time to color and create it is good for the soul !

Walkin in a Winter Wonderland !

Hi there can you believe it is the 25th of Aug. already.....where has this year went? I tell you the years seem to go by quicker every year! Welcome to another Magnolia-licious Christmas All Year Long Blog hop. If you arrived here from Carole then you are on the right path, if you just happened to stop by and see me you may want to start at the beginning so you don't miss out on any of the great creations. I really enjoyed making this card I have used the image "Sideways Tilda with Lantern" and "Three Christmas Pines" they are both colored with copics. I don't see the trees but you can get Tilda from Diana here. The trees are a really big stamp so I cut one of them off. I have added stickles and scribbles 3D paint to the trees. DP is Cosmo Cricket, "Be good: Believe" Lace up pieces are cut with the wishblade. Ribbons, brads, snowflakes and gems all from my stash ! I have used flower soft for the snow below the trees. I used chalk for the sky. Tilda has fun flock on her hat, glossy accents on her lantern and Stickles on her wings, she is popped up for dimension.

Tilda had a little Lamb

Hi and happy Monday to you all ! I hope you have had an enjoyable weekend. I have had a great week actually, I am getting my backyard a complete make-over and it will be done tomorrow it looks so pretty. Lots going on around here with spring break, little league starting etc., so I have not been in my craft room to much lately I did find time yesterday to color this little cutie up and put together a card. This image is Tilda as a Shepherd and you can get her at Magnolia-licious, she seems to be out of stock at the moment but I am sure that Diana will order if you just get in touch with her. I am going to enter her in the sketch over at Midnight Madness-MMSC46

I have colored my image with Copics, DP is Cosmo Crickets Love Notes Wonderful. I have used the MS punch for the flower stems, flower is Prima. I cut the border on my wishblade. I used my Nesties Labels and did the out of bounds effect with Tilda. I have popped up the little lamb for some dimension and added stickles for a little bling.

I am taking the online Copic coloring classes from Suzanne Dean and I am really learning lots of good tips and techniques, so on this particular image I am showing the shading effect with the center lite source.

I think she will make a cute little Easter card. Thanks for coming by and have a great day.
Hugs,
