GARDEN FAIRY

This delightful little Garden Fairy digital image is this weeks image from Designed 2 Delight. Faith has some of the cutest digital images available....and you can check them out here.

I used Old Olive card stock by Stampin UP, along with Neenah White Solar paper, and some really cute Heidi Grace Design DP which I just loved and couldn't pass up!

I also used my oval Nesties, Copics markers, Modern Label punch, and some pink paper flowers. The little jeweled flower center brad is by Stampin Up. It's difficult to see in this photo, but the wings and water coming from the watering can have been filled in with clear Spica glitter.

POTTED FLOWERS

I just love this image of potted flowers that I used for this weeks card. It's another fabulous digi image from Designed 2 Delight. I think it would also look great done in purple which I plan on trying too.

I used Wild Wasabi and Regal Rose card stock by SU, along with DP by Making Memories, the Brooke collection. Also used were several Copic markers, Nesties, and the Swiss Dots Cuttlebug embossing folder for the background. The edges were sponged using Regal Rose ink.

SPRING HAS SPRUNG!

Well, it's the first day of spring today! Here in the north east we really look forward to see spring finally arrive after a cold and icy winter! What a wonderful day it is here today, a whopping 75 degrees! I have my windows open, as well as having an abundance of energy today, thanks to the warm weather and sunshine!

I'll be working on a card later today so stop by again tomorrow and check it out.... (big surprise, it's gonna be a spring card) LOL

BALANCING BIRDIES...

I just love this new digi image from Designed 2 Delight that was this months freebie. A cute image and absolutely free....ya just can't go wrong with that! :)

I used Almost Amethyst card stock and designer paper from Stampin Up, along with Neenah solar white. Rectangle Nesties were used along with grosgrain ribbon from SU. I decided to paper piece the birdies and add some little pearls to the flower centers and bottom of the card to add that little "final touch". Copics were used for what little coloring had to be done.

HERE COMES PETER COTTON TAIL...

Here in central new england, we've really had spring fever after a cold winter... well today was an absolutely beautiful day with temps in the mid 50's along with an abundance of sunshine! It's amazing how much more energy we have on days like this.... it's supposed to be in the 40's all week. Could this possibly mean that "spring has sprung"?

This is the card I have to share with you this week. It's another great digital image from Designed 2 Delight. The little Happy Easter stamp is from the "Teeny Tiny Wishes" set by Stampin' UP!

Neenah solar white paper was used along with Taken with Teal and Rose Red card stock by SU. The Easter DP is from Flair Designs. I ran a small strip of the Rose Red through my Cuttlebug using the Swiss Dots embossing folder. Various Copics were used for coloring (just love those markers!) Also used was a window punch, Nesties, and a great little flower brad by K&Company. Paper piercing was done to add the final touch! :)

My friend Kimberly suggested using my OTT-LITE when taking pictures of my cards to get a more natural lighting effect. Of course I remembered it AFTER taking these photos! I wish I had tried it tonight as the color here looks more like a turquoise card stock instead of the teal color that was used.
