It's like....

.
Christmas in a cup! I had my first Peppermint Mocha last night and it was so good!!! I love the snow and the cold weather of winter. I love the cool sensation you get after a sip of the hot drink!





Right now I am watching one of our MANY Christmas movies, The Christmas Cottage. This card reminds me so much of the movie. Just the idea of a house/cottage/home filled with friends, family and loved ones for the holidays is amazing.

Here is the closeup of the house. The image has been colored with copic markers. The snow is made with liquid applique with a bit of glitter added before it was heated.

Hope you enjoy!

Back again!

Woo Hoo....

I can't believe how fast the summer has flown by this year. I am excited for fall though and the colour changes. It is by far my favorite time of year, not to mention thanksgiving....pumpkin pie....and that's all I am saying...LOL

So fall themed cards here I go:



Here is what I used:
Stamp: House Mouse "mice landing"
Copics: Leaves (YR12, YR14, YR21), Mouse (E30, E31, E33)
Blue chalk for the sky



Enjoy!

What a day!

This day started out normal enough in my house. We moved out all my furniture so that my dad could paint my room. Afterwards my sister and I went to the movies to go see I am number four. It was really good, the type of movie I enjoy ;).

After the movies we stopped at our local Metro store to pick up some bean sprouts and bok choi for dinner when.....we saw one of the metro employees get his foot run over. It was shocking! It's like in the movies when everything slows down and as much as you want to stop what is happening you can't. I still can't even believe it! The boy ended up having to go to the hospital. I just hope that he is ok.

On a better note here is a card I made yesterday while my friend Krystal was over scrapbooking with me.



The cardstock and paper (notebook line) is by Close to my Heart. I used my plain ribbon I had in my stash. The image is Stamping Bella's babycarriageabella. I used copic markers to colour here, and shaded with blue pencil crayon. The accents on the side are also from Stamping Bella.



Here are the copic colours I used.

Bella: E00, E35, R85, R83, C00, C1
Baby Carriage: R81, R83, C1, C3, YG11, B0000, B00
Shading underneath: W00. W1, W2, W3

So of course here is the closeup of the image!

Enjoy.

Happy Valentine's Day

Hey Everyone!

Happy Valentine's Day! Hope you all had an amazing day!

Here is the little goodie I made for some of the people I work with.

The heart bag, is made using my Cricut, the cartridge is Bags, Tags, Boxes and more! The best investment I have made on a cartridge!!! I filled the inside using smarties, cinnamon hearts and few jelly beans. They came out so well!!

Hope you enjoy!

It's a hair kinda day....

.
I was feeling kinda down today, needed a change, so what did I do?

I got my hair cut! YAY, didn't like how my hairdresser did it so I might take some pictures tomorrow after I have tried styling it myself. Now on to the card!



This is my card for Faith's challenge. You can find her challenges and stamps at Designed2Delight Digital Stamps. The stamp I used is "big heart". It is so cute!



Here is my close up. I colour the image with copics and shaded with aquamarine.

Enjoy!

Baby Card

.

Good Morning All!!

Today is a great day, getting everything done early so that I can do some card making with my friends this afternoon. Beds are made, laundry is almost done, I even got to watch the episode of Off the Map that I missed this week.

My mom had a baby shower to attend yesterday so I made her a special card to take with her. I had an old paper pack of muted papers with the old alice in wonderland characters on it that i decided to use. I tried one set of papers before I decided on these. I think they work so well together.



The stamp I used is from Stamping Bella. The stamps are the Ketto Line, specifically the baby lingerie and the clothesline. I think they worked out really well for this card.



Here is the close up of the image.

I used copic markers to colour the main image and shaded with chalks and blue pencil crayon with goo gone.

Here are the copics I used:

R32, RV34, YG93, YG95, W1, E31, E34.

Hope you enjoy!

Snow Day

.
Oh, what a day. It is snowing here like crazy in southern ontario.



Here is one of our friends out in the backyard that visited us for peanuts during this storm. He is so cute!

Here is my card for Faith's challenge. You can find all her digital stamps at Designed2Delight Digital Stamps. The image is called "for the birds snowman". I love the detail she puts into her images.



I only did some light colouring on this image because it worked well with the muted colours in the Close to My Heart paper.

Here is the close up of the image.




enjoy!
