Happy Friday!

I am back today with another little cutie from Rachelle Anne Miller Creative Studios. This incredibly sweet image is called ‘Flower River‘. Such a clever place to sit and take a rest!

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: E55, E53, E51 Flower in her hair: R43, Y17
Gold Flower: Y26, Y32, Y21, YR31, YR30
Greens: YG17, YG25, YG03, YG01, YG00, YG0000, G20
Grays: C5, C3, C1, C0, C00
Jacket: BG72, BG70
Shoes: E57, E55, E53
Pinks: R43, RV11, RV000

I started with a card base of 5×5 and adjusted the length of the tag dies so they fit inside those measurements. I added brown ribbon to the tag front and also inside the background stitched ribbon die cut. I created the sentiment on my computer.

Bonjour

September 7, 2020September 5, 20202 Comments

Hello and welcome!

Squeeeee…I am so excited to be guest designing for The Greeting Farm this month!!

Can you believe cutie patootie ‘Bonjour Anya‘ is on her way to Paris and left me behind?? I am hoping that someday I will get to see all the wonders of Paris!

This little sweetheart was printed on X-Press It Blending Card and was colored with the following Copic Markers.

~Copics~
Skin: E13, E11, E21, E00, E000, E0000, R20, R30, R00
Hair: E57, E55, E99, YR21
Dress: RV55, RV10, RV02, RV00, RV000, C2, C0
Shoes: C6, C4, C2, RV000
Hat: RV55, RV10, RV02, RV00, RV000, YG17, YG03, C4, White Gel Pen

Once I had Anya colored, I fussy cut her out and set her aside to start on my card design. I started with a card base that is 5×5, and created a design with lots of layers. The center portion is popped up with double sided foam tape. When the card design was finished I attached Bonjour Anya with double sided foam tape as well. The main paper inspiration is from Doodlebug Design – French Kiss Collection.

There is so much cuteness to be found at The Greeting Farm…how does one choose…lol!

Until next time…crafty hugs!!

Hello everyone!

For all those who I hold dear to my heart…ewe are wooly special to me!

For my design team project for Digi Doodle Studios I chose to work with the ‘Wooly Lambs‘ pairables digi stamp set again. So much cuteness!

I have had SO much fun creating with these sweet little cuties!

I printed these little sweeties at a height of 2″ on X-Press It Blending Card and colored them with the following Copic Markers.

The paper is from the adorable digital paper pack called Oh Happy Day also from Digi Doodle Studios. I brought the pink gingham into Photoshop and lowered the opacity to 70% so that it printed a little lighter.
