With sympathy card

Showing my sympathy to a dear friend who lost her mother. No words are enough to express the lost of a mother.

I made this card using die cuts (Double dies and Joy crafts) and my big shot. A clear stamp and a Stampin' Up inkpad (night of navy).

In A Round About Way ...

What about a round postcard? I created a round postcard in a mailable size (4 1/4"). The front of the postcard is decorated with circles. I used cardboard, patterned card stock, plain card stock and wallpaper. To cut the circles I used my Cricut Expression for the postcard. tor the smaller circles I used my Coluzzle and paper punches. I finished the card with writing hello and hi and the smallest circles. At last I added dots and stripes on and around the circles as a finishing touch. I hope you like this postcard ... I love it!




Cricut cuttings

For this swap I used my Cricut and my big shot. We have to send at least five images.
The word 'happy' is from a while ago. I guess I used one of my Close to My Heart cartridges. The worm is from the Create a Critter cartridge and the old clock is from the Picturesque cartridge.





Using my big shot I cut out two different butterflies with the embossed effect. I cut out two of each butterfly. These butterfly die cuts are from Spellbinders.


I also cut out this bamboo tree. I never used this image; it would be nice on a card:-)

Copic colouring

I hope everyone enjoys 2014:-) The weather has been kind to us, is not really Winter. It should be Winter, but it still feels like Autumn. Wonder what that means for the upcoming months...

I share some images colored with my Copics and Prisma color pencils. The images are of different brand s.a. Sweetpea rubber stamps, Penny Blossom digital image and Lacy Sunshine digital images. All lovely images I enjoy coloring.

I have to finish the coloring, but I thought it would be nice to share projects that I am working on. It seems that I enjoy the coloring these days. And I haven't used my Copics and Prisma color pencils for a while! I hope you'll like the combination of colours that I used and of course the shading :-) I apparently care more about the shading on the face and skin. I care less about the shading on the clothes. Maybe because the shading of the clothes requires techniques. I try these techniques, but I don't like all the time it consumes.

Of course I will share the finished projects with you.
