Finding my way back again

WOW! I have been gone for sometime, but I didn't realize that it has been this long. So many things have been happening. I started a new job in January of this year and have since left there for something else. I put a referral in with my doctor for bariatric surgery which has been approved. I have done all the required appointments and have it scheduled for December 3. I am super excited! So many good changes this year!! Now back to the reason you and I are here, my work. I have done some new stuff but not as much as I would have liked in the 9 months I haven't been posting. I have done a few cards here and there and will be posting more often.

Oh Willard...

.
I love Willard, he is so so cute! The Stamp is by Kraftin' Kimmie. Isn't he just adorable?

This week Kimmie had a sketch challenge on her blog.

Here is my card featuring, yep you guessed it....Willard!




The paper I used for this card is Close to my Heart Aspen. The accent colors are Creme Brulee, Outdoor Denim, and Twilight. I used spellbinders for the die cuts that Willard is on. I did the bottom one in Outdoor denim and the plain circle in creme brulee. I then added jewels to all the tabs coming from the spellbinder cutout.

For an added season touch, I added a bit of sparkly felt behind Willard so that he would like he is standing in snow.

The image is colored with Copic Markers.

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!
