Happy b-day card with challenge #2 sketch

Image
I need a card for one of my employees.  And I decided to make one off camera.  OMG it's been FOREVER since I have done that.  And I have decided to use a stamp that I haven't used EVER.  I just ADORE Gorjuss stamps and I haven't been using mine.... I just don't.  But I love them that IS the reason I got them in the 1st place. So it was time to do that and while watching Courtney from Little Raven Ink (on Patreon, I love supporting artists that I like).  I just played with some alcool inks which have not been used either.... and made a really fun background. The other papers used on this card are from a card folder and the other from a very old paper pack that can't identify for you. I really hope that you like my new card for you.  I followed the sketch that you can find on my sketch/layout challenge .  It's been a very long time since I have posted just on my blog.  I hope you like it but most of all I sure hope my employee likes it!!!! One thing as

Fluff the dragon

Hello!  The crickets have been having a field day on my blog... yes I know it's been so long since I have shared something just here just for you all that still follow my blog!  I wanted to 1st of all wish you all a very HAPPY NEW YEAR!  May 2018 bring you health and be filled with joy as well as crafty fun! When I saw the dragon image that Unky created for the East Wind, I just knew this would make a perfect card for my daughter that just ADORES dragon.  You can find the sweet image here . The background that I have used for this was made with a recycled envelope that I covered with paint and left over paper pieces!  You can find that on my youtube channel here if you are interested in making that: It's a great way to recycle and to make very cheap paper that is totally UNIQUE. Here is the card that I have made. The image was colored with some coloring pencils as well as gel pens.  I glued this on black cardstock to make it pop.  The sentiment was made by

Hello everyone!  Today is my last post for the fab  Digi Choosday .  It's been a real joy to be part of this great team since June 2014!!!  Wow time sure flies when you are having fun. This last challenge that I'm participating in is about spring time in pastels!  And boy oh boy am I looking forward to spring... This being said I seem to be stuck in pink mode :)  What can I say, when I think pastels that's the 1st color that pops into my mind.   I just had to use the same cuddly set as last week but this time around I chose Etty Shy.  My precolored image and the great paper comes from  Winston Deluxe collection  but if you want the black and white version of this image you can find it  here .

Happy Birthday Art by Mi Ran (Day 14) - Crafting Vicky

WOW it's been a Full Year since Art by Mi Ran started up !  Where does the time pass?!?  I have to say it's been a real pleasure to be part of this team since the beginning!  I really do feel quite blessed :) I'm here to share with you the 1st make that I did as part of the team and the new make that I did with this fabulous image.  I still just adore the great  1920 Flapper So here's the 1st card that I did a year ago And here's my make this year with her.  It's very funny that I chose the same type of color tones even though I didn't check the past card previously. But you can see I have been taking classes in coloring because my coloring is not as chalky and pale as before!

Here's my last post of the night!  I was super lucky to play in the last challenge over at  Sami Stamps .  I try to play as much as possible and that time around I had a DT card to make with a fabulous image.  So I entered the challenge and Sami gave every one who entered 1$ off a digi from the store... Well.... I just couldn't just keep it to that... so had to purchase a few more and got some great freebies at the same time.  I have some specific cards that will be made with those great images. And so after I had received my order I checked back to see what was the challenge since I really wanted to enter again and LOW and BEHOLD there's a DT call going on...  I know... some of you might think that I'm already in way too many dts... but guys... did you check how many posts I do in a month?!?  I just love crafting (and I'm not late ever with my DT work).  I especially love crafting for some of the artist that I like!  And Sami stamps is one of them.  I've made

Classic Car

Hello!  So I hope you had a great Wednesday!  I'm glad it's over lol and I got to come home in time to help with homework... that's my new goal in life... even if I'm further away work wise... I really hope that I can come home to help my kids with their homeworks! So anyway, I'm here to share with you a little make that I did totally masculine for the new linky over at  Crafty Secrets .  The best part of being part of this linky is that everyone is a winner!!!  Just for participating you get 6$$$  yes 6$$$ off to spend in the store.  Let's just say that it always costs me a bit more but such fabulous digis! And for this card I decided to make a masculine make because I don't have a lot and I had the most awesome set Classic car to use.  So I went monochromatic and masculine!  I always have trouble doing masculine card... but this one came pretty quickly and I was really happy with the result!

Goodevening!  So how are you all?  Today was a busy Monday.  I had a lot of stuff to do at work... and then I needed to go with one of my boys to the doctor before he returns to school... ended up spending most of the afternoon... man.. that's long. I really wanted to craft and still manage to do some... but as I got to my blog I noticed that I had lost a follower.  So sad when that happens.  Especially since the number was getting higher.  And now it went back down one :( well I hope the rest of you like my posting... I do post a lot lol but what can I say I really love crafting and find such peace of mind when I do! Anyway I'm here to share with you a card that I made for a colleague's b-day that's coming up.  I had the pop up today at work... and then I discovered a great artist that I didn't know!  Yup another one!  Here's the link to the cute little digi  Cute Girl  it's from Zuri Vice President Jr.  And guess what?!?  They are having a DT call h

Elisabeth Bell - Bonne fĂȘte

Image
Hello everyone!  I'm here to share a card that I made to enter in the fabulous GDT over at  Elisabeth bells .  I know that this is a very LOOOOOONG shot.  Since there's soooo much talent on that team... but hey like I always says to a friend of mine you have nothing to lose and only regrets if you don't at least try out. I used one of my Belles' n Whistles stamps that hadn't seen ink yet... yes hanging my head in shame... I had to purchase it because I just love those images but I had not taken the time to create with it.  This was the perfect opportunity to do so.  Even if I don't make it on the team at least I will have used it for a very cute b-day card.
