Faery Ink- Tinkerbelle Gabbie

How could I almost forget to show you this Artist Trading Card I made? She was sooo much fun to do and creating the layers was a delight!!! She's been mailed off to the States as part of a swap and I do hope the recipient loves it as much as I loved making it!!



If you love the image as much as I do you can grab it HERE!

A few beautiful simple cards

I did have a little time these last few weeks to create a few simple, pretty cards! This first on is by Yam Puff and I colored her up to send her to Australia for my teacher at Kit and Clowder.
 These last 2 I made to give out to customers at the restaurant for thier birthdays or special occasions. I love how elegant they turned out!!


I am entering the black and white one in the Seize the Birthday: Clean and Simple challenge.
Thanks for stopping in today! I hope you have enjoyed everything you have seen and maybe got some ideas of your own!!!

December Create and Learn Class

The December Create and Learn class over at Kit and Clowder featured this very New Years Eve type image from The East Wind. I loved learning the fireworks especially!!!
In fact I loved it so much I took this Ching Chou Kuik image and used the same techniques to create pocket scrapbook cards for our albums to finish off the 2015 year.




Isn't it just a fab image??

I am entering the pocket scrapbook cards in the Ching Chou Kuik Challenge blog January Challenge: Something New- because this image is brand new!!

Kit and Clowder November Create and Learn Class

Have you all missed me?? I have missed me!! LOL I have been so busy with life that getting my blogging done has been nearly impossible!! So grab a coffee, pull up a chair and enjoy I have soo much to show you!!
First I finally finised the November Create and Learn class over at Kit and Clowder. I loved it so much I had to do all 3 style!! And I had to take the pencil image and color it with copics too!! LOL
This first one is the main class image:

This is one of the alternate backgrounds and I am sooo in love with the look it created!!

This is the 2nd alternate background and I really enjoyed learning how to do the sepia look!!


And lastly this image was for the pencil class and I loved it soo much that I had to do it with copics too!!

Now what to do with these 4 5x7 completed images? LOL
