CCK - Carnation Love

Happy Sunday everyone!  I colored up this beauty last week, and would love to share it with you.  The image is 'Carnation Love', and she is the image for the current challenge over in the Ching Chou Kuik Facebook Group.  Check out the post on how to get her, and what fabulous prizes you have a chance at wining!  


The Copics I used are: skin - E000, E00, E04, E11 & R20; hair - E50, E51, E53 & E57; tail - RV000, RV02, V000, V01, V06, V12, V15, G000, G00, BG32, BG34 & BG49; dress - RV000, RV02 & RV06.

I've been wanting to make an all white card for some time (especially after seeing one by my friend Karin, which you can see on her blog here).  I used Bazzill cardstock, embossing folders (using my Cutttlebug), white lace, and dies by Spellbinders and LaLa Land.  The flowers are from Wild Orchid, and I did use colroed ones to reflect the colors of the ones in the image.  I hope you'll check out the other DT projects using 'Carnation Love', and join in the challenge yourself!  

Enjoy the rest of your weekend!

CC & CC - Spring Has Sprung!

Hello ladies and gents!  We're kicking off a new challenge over at the Chocolate, Coffee & Cards Challenges blog, and I am very excited about it!  The theme for this challenge is 'Spring Has Sprung', and we are sponsored by A Day for Daisies.  



The very first challenge I did with the CC & CC design team was using an image from A Day for Daisies, and ever since then I was hooked on their stamps!  For my card today I used Curly Flower Fairy.  Isn't she beautiful?


The Copics I used to color her are: skin - E00, E04, E11, E21 & R20; hair - E11, E13, E15 & E17; dress - R11, R20, R32, R35, YG00, YG03, YG17 & YG25; wings - V22, B000, BG000 & Wink of Stella (clear); flowers - RV10, RV13, RV14, Y00, Y02 & Y08.

The paper I picked up at Michaels (but I don't have the package it came in, so I do not know who it is from), lace, ribbon, and 2 tulips from Wild Orchid.  Don't forget to stop by the Chocolate, Coffee & Cards Challenge blog, show the DT some love, and join our 'Spring Has Sprung' challenge!

Karleigh Sue - Nerdy Cute

Good morning everyone!  I'm hosting the Karleigh Sue Inspiration Blog today, and I'm happy to share this altered chalkboard with you.  I decided to use the super adorable image Nerdy Cute.  Right away I knew I wanted to use some school themed papers (which I've had for YEARS), but I just wasn't feelin a card with it.  So...I grabbed a small chalkboard I bought at Walmart a few week ago, and VIOLA! Here she is:





The Copics I used to color her are: skin - E000, E00, E04, E11, E21 & R20; hair - YR14, YR18, E08 & E19; pants - B91, B95 & B97; shirt - YR23 & Y21, bag - E31, E33 & E35.


The paper and flash cards are from Creative Imagination, flowers from Wild Orchid, and I used a die by LaLa Land Crafts.  Super easy to make, really, and I'm so pleased with the result.  Thinking I might buy a few more chalk boards to have on hand for future gifts!

I would like to enter this into the following challenges:

Thanks for looking!  Have a great day.

For the card I used Bazzill cardstock, My Mind's Eye Paper (Alphabet Soup), ribbon, flowers from Wild Orchid, and Joy Crafts! butterfly Die.
