Hello friends!

Squeeeee…it’s new release time at All Dressed Up Stamps!!

My assignment was this gorgeous image called ‘Skater‘. She looks so content practicing her skating.

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

~Copics~
Skin: E04, E11, E21, E00, E000, E0000, R20, R30, R00
Hair: E37, E35, E31, YR31, E50
Gray: W5, W3, W2, W1, W0, W00
Teal: BG75, BG72, BG70
Ice: B41, C1, C0, C00
White Gel Pen
Stardust Stickles

I decided she needed a design on her hat so she could be a little fancy. I penciled in very light lines so I knew where to add the color. One I had the colors added I more design with a white gel pen.

I added snow with a white gel pen and Stardust Stickles.

Hello and welcome!

Does anyone else want to own a penguin for real besides me? I so wish I could, but it would have to be one of the smaller ones. Their waddle is so adorable!

It’s time for another Facebook Challenge at All Dressed Up Stamps. The theme for November is ‘Christmas is Coming’.

My inspiration today is from the cute and fun digital image called ‘Christmas Penguins‘.

These adorable penguin friends were printed on X-Press It Blending Card and were colored with the following markers.

~Copics~
Gray: C7, C6, C5, C4, C3, C2
Red: R89, R46, R29, R27, R24, R08, R05
Green: YG95, YG93, YG91
Yellow: YR18, YR15, Y35, Y15
Cheeks: R20, R30, R00

I decided on a theme of only white with a pop of color for this card which is unusual for me. I decided to use an embossing folder for the background to give it some interest.

Being true to myself and style I added layers and just a hint of red through the open circles from the background die.

Hello and welcome!

I am back today with another cutie from Emma Punktchen Digital Stamps called Laternchen. Such an adorable image that can be used for many different themes.

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

~Copics~
Grays: W2, W1, W0, W00
Pinks: RV42, R00, R000

The cold nights have me in the mood to create holiday cards. I decided to leave the sentiment off so I had the option to use it as a Christmas card or just a holiday card. I can always add a small sentiment at a later time if I need to.

The word FALL was cut on my Silhouette machine. I changed some of the letter sizes to make room for the image to sit in front. I used scraps and cut all the letters in a different color or pattern. I added a piece of ribbon so the image looked like it had a place to rest.
