Hello and welcome!

Today I am sharing these gorgeous ladies from the new release at All Dressed Up Stamps. These beauties are from the digital stamp set called Best Frocks.

I decided to leave them without a sentiment as this card could be used for so many occasions.

Once I had my design the way I wanted it to look, I printed the image on X-Press It Blending Card and colored these cuties with the following markers.

Skin: E04, E11, E21, E00, E000, E0000, R20
Hair: E57, E55, E53 – E55, E53, YR21
Tans: E42, E41, E40
Purples: V01, V000, V0000, RV00

I added some shiny gold ribbon, diecut the leaves out of a metallic gold paper, and added self adhesive pearls to tie everything together.

Hi friends!

My jaw literally dropped when I saw this gorgeous image called Spring Hair Do from All Dressed Up Stamps!! How lucky I am to get to work with her for my DT project..woot woot!! I love ALL things girly and pink…lol! Maybe that’s why the good Lord blessed me with three beautiful daughters and no sons.

I left it without a sentiment as she could be used for so many occasions…and she is just too pretty to add words to.

I printed this adorable image on X-Press It Blending Card and colored her with the following markers.

You’re braver than you believe

February 22, 2022February 13, 2022Leave a comment

Hello everyone!

Today I am sharing this super sweet image called ‘Kitty Hearts‘ from All Dressed Up Stamps.

When I first saw this image I imagined her way up high looking out over the landscape. To me that would take a tremendous amount of bravery to sit up so high. Sometimes for me at least, it’s easier to climb up than get myself back down…lol!

To start, I brought my image into Photoshop and lightened the opacity to 35% so the black lines were not so prominent. I then printed this adorable image on X-Press It Blending Card and colored her with the following markers.

~Copics~
Hair: E55, E53, E51, E50
Pinks: RV55, RV10, RV10, RV00, C2
Branch: E57, E55, E53
Kitty: W3, W1, W0
Trees & Grass: G94, YG17, YG63, YG61, YG03, G21, G20, YG00
Sky: BG70, BG000, BG0000, C1, C00
White Gel Pen

My card is just slightly bigger than A2 size to accomdate the layers. The dies are from Mama Elephant, CC Designs, and My Favorite Things.

You’re a shining STAR

September 22, 2021September 3, 20212 Comments

Hello, hello friends!

I am back today with a new release cutie from All Dressed Up Stamps called ‘Star‘. I fell absolutely in LOVE with her!!

It wasn’t until I had her started that I thought of the idea for the background.

I printed this adorable image on Neenah Desert Storm paper and colored her with the following colored pencils.

~Prismacolor Pencils~
Skin: 941, 1081, 1017, 1092, 939, 927, 997, 929, 938
Hair: 947, 945, 1034, 948, 1082, 946, 1094, 1012
Purples: 935, 1009, 995, 934, 993, 938
Blues: 935, 901, 1025, 1022, 1024, 1086
Star & Letters: 1082, 1034, 942, 916, 1011, 914, 938, White Gel Pen
Bear: 1082, 1034, 942, 1093, 938, 929

I had the idea of a shining star behind her, but of course didn’t have quite the right stencil for what I had in mind. So…I used drew it in freehand and crossed my fingers and toes that I could get the spacing right.
