When I saw this image last spring I just had to have it. I've had to wait patiently until I could use it (I know it's still a little early for winter scenes but I couldn't wait anymore!).

The image is from Phindy's Place and I colored it with Copics. Both the border punch and the snowflakes are by Martha Stewart. The roses are from Wild Orchid Crafts. They are origianlly white but I colored them with a Copic marker to match. The rhinestones are Kaiser Craft and I got them HERE. The ear muffs where done with liquid applique.

Copics used:
Skirt, leggings, mittens, and scarf - R85, R83, R81
Coat - B97, B95, B93, B91
Roses - R81
Skates - C2
Hair - Y23
Skin - E11, E00, E000, R20

Call Me

I thought the wall on this My Favorite Things image called out for some kind of pattern so I paper pieced it with Basic Grey paper and I think it looks like very chic wallpaper.

I colored the image with Copics and all the DP is Basic Grey. The "flower" was made with the blossom Nestibilities. I used the three smallest dies and then crumpled each layer and put a pearl brad in the center. The pearl brad is from The Hobby House.

Copics used:

Skin - E11, E00, E000
Pants and chair - B97, B95, B93, B91, C02
Shirt and carpet - G99, G94, G82
Phone - R85, R81

Holly Hedgie

I just love these hedgehog stamps and I especially love this one with the holly.

A real CAS card, the image was colored with Copics. The holly berries got a healthy amount of Crystal Effects. The holly leaves I got at Michael's but am not sure of the manufacturer. The DP is digital paper. The cardstock is Papertrey Ink.

Copics used:
Hedgie - C05, C03
Berries - R27, R24, R22
Leaves - G99, G94, G82

Merry Kissmas

When I saw this image I knew I had to have it! It's from my favorite digi artist, Prairie Fairy Designs and it's super fun to color.

I colored the image with Copics and added Crystal Effects to her glasses. The white trim on her coat and hat is polar white Flowersoft. I made the sentiment on my computer. The image and the red scallops around it were cut using Nestibilities.

LOTV

No Christmas card today! I just love this stamp from Lili of the Valley ... a little girl playing dress up and watering Momma's plant. I don't often do distressing but felt the paper and image called out for it.

I colored the stamp with Copics and used Liquid Pearls on the pearl necklace and bracelet. There are Stickles on the centers of the flowers and on the water. The flower is made with the three smallest Nestibilites in the blossom set. The pearls are Kaiser Craft and the pearl brad on the flower is from The Hobby House.

Blue Snowman

Yep, I'm on a snowman kick lately.

The stamp is from Whipper Snapper and I colored it with Copics. I did faux stitching around the image and the felt snowflakes are from SU!. The tiny buttons on the snowman are from some candy that I won so I don't know where they're from. I do know that they're a pain to work with because they're so tiny! The paper is digital paper and I'm not sure where I got it.

Turquoise and Brown Snow People

Let it Snow

Another Christmas/winter card! I'm really getting in the swing of them now. I've unearthed all my Christmas stamps, the few embellishments I have, and all my Christmas paper. So watch out!

The stamp is by Whipper Snapper and I colored it with Copics. The sentiment is by a small company for which I've forgotten the name. Snowflake buttons are old from my stash and the DP is Papermania. I used black brads for the buttons on all the snowmen. The CS is Bazzill.

A Rose for Sympathy

This is a sympathy card for my best friend. She has lost three loved ones in the past 5 months. I can't even imagine what she's going through.

The stamp is from SU! and I colored it with Copics. I'm not sure who manufactured the other stamp. The DP is Papermania and the pearls are from Kaiser Craft.

Christmas Every Day

I know, I know it seems a tad early for Christmas cards. But I love making Christmas cards and my Christmas stamps were calling out to me.

The mouse stamp and the sentiment are both Penny Black. I colored the image with Copics and added white glitter to the snow, although you can't really see it in the picture. The white panel is a Cuttlebug embossing folder and the snowflakes are a combination of Martha Stewart and another punch (not sure who makes it). The DP is Lasting Impressions and it's about 6 years old.
