http://houseofgilli.blogspot.com/

Florist Gilli is all set for Valentine's Day with her pink and red hearts; isn't she sweet?!  I've colored the image with Copics, and I've added some Diamond Glaze to her shoes, as well as, Diamond Stickles to her basket.  The complete line of Gilli Stamps can be found at Stamping Scrapping.  Thanks so much for stopping by, and be sure to stop by Becca's blog next, to see what lovely Gilli she's made for you.   Happy Valentine's Day!  :)

Party at Outlawz!!!

We have extra prizes for challenges this week over at Outlawz!  Today begins the Birthday Challenge which is to design a Western theme card; that also has a birthday sentiment on the front.  I found a cute cowgirl card to use for this challenge, and she's a digi image from Pink Cat Studio.  As usual I colored the image with Copics on Cryogen paper.  I added Diamond glaze to the balloon and Star Dust stickles to the hat band.  Thanks for stopping by and have a great Monday!

Gilli Blog Hop on February 13!!!

I'm very excited to be a member of the design team for the Gilli Stamp, created by the talented artist Anary!  I get the chance to work with some very talented crafters, and I'm so looking forward to getting started.  To celebrate we will be having a Blog Hop at House of Gilli on February 13!!  The Gilli Design Team and Stamping Scrapping Design Team will be bringing you inspiring projects and there will be a prize for the winner of the blog hop!  So stop by the House of Gilli to join in the fun! 

The first Gilli Challenge will begin on February 14 and House of Gilli will feature a project by DT leader Suzanne Dean!

Outlawz Birthday Card Challenge ~ February 7

Happy Monday to Everyone!!!   Over at Outlawz we have a fun, whimsical challenge for you this week; it's to design a birthday card with a butterfly, fairy or angel.  All cards submitted for the challenge should also have some sort of birthday greeting on the outside of the card.  See my Outlawz poster on sidebar for information regarding our first Outlawz party!!  Stop by, check it out, and join us.  :) 

I've used Pixie Pearl digi image from Pixie Dust Studio, and colored her with the following Copic colors:  C9,7,5,3; G28,24,21,20; BV08,04,00; V09,06,04,01 and E01,00,000.  Star Dust Stickles were used on the wings, Diamond Glaze on the shoes and eyes.  Paper is from Kaisercraft's Lilac Ave.  Thanks for stopping by.  :)

Outlawz Birthday Card Challenge ~ January 31

Happy Monday to Everyone!  This week's birthday card challenge over at Outlawz is perfect for birthdays coming up at and around Valentine's Day.  For your card you must use ribbon and hearts.  I've used a Michelle Perkett digi image for my card called Queen of Hearts Birthday Girl and she's really fun to color.  As usual I've colored with Copics and I've added MS glitter, Star Dust Stickles, Viva Decor Glitter liner (for the shoes), MS glitter brads, heart embellishments (in real life they are true red they just photographed dark) and Bo Bunny DP.  I'll also be submitting this card to Michelle Perkett's Challenge  (use one of Michelle's images as well as bling).  Another challenge I'm submitting this card to is CMC and you must use red and pink Copics to color your image.  Have a great week everyone!

Outlawz Birthday Card Challenge ~ January 24

Hi Everyone,

I'd like to invite everyone to join in the challenge over at The Outlawz.  Just sign up as a member and join in the Birthday Challenge (and many other challenges over there).  This week's challenge is to design a card that is primarily red.  All instructions can be found at the site. 

I've colored a Tiddlywink's image for this week's challenge.  As usual I used Copics and added Diamond Glaze to the shoes.  The bow on her dress got a coating of Star Dust Stickles.  Hope to see you over at The Outlawz ~ really nice, and creative crafters over there.  :)

Winter

It's been a very cold, snowy winter here in PA so I wanted to make a snowman, but in the warmth of my home.  :)  This digi image is a Sassy Cheryl's image and I thought he looked adorable.  I colored him with Copics and added MS glitter to the snowman and to "winter".  I also added Stardust Stickles to mittens and hat pom-pom, oh and the carrot got coated with Diamond Glaze.  I'm going to enter this in the Copic Creation challenge ~Sparkle~ found here.  http://copiccreations.wordpress.com/  Thanks so much for stopping by!  :)

Snow Scene

I drew this little scene, scanned it and used the program Paint to even out the lines.    I colored with Copic markers and added Liquid Applique, MS glitter and Filigree embossing powder.  It was lots of fun to draw the picture but it's much quicker to use stamps and digi images~sooooo not sure how often I'll be doing this!  I'm going to submit this card to the challenge over at  CMC , there are some beautiful snow cards over there (and some nice prizes)!
