Little Miss Turtle

It's time for some spring colors, and at Practical Scrappers this week, it's time for white pens!   This is one of my favorite crafting tools...if you haven't tried it yet, you'll love it and use it for everything.

My little Miss Turtle is a digi stamp from The Stamping Boutique.   They have absolutely wonderful images at terrific prices.   Hop over!   I colored her with watercolor pencils, using several shades of each color and blending them.   I added some gems and buttons for dimension and used the white pen to highlight.  Added some flowers from Walk In My Garden, cut at 1/2" increments and layered.   I used the pen to doodle on the flowers too.  Added some ribbon and the sentiment is from Paisley.

Happy Spring!


Designed to Delight Digital Stamps  has a great freebie this week....and if you complete the challenge with the cute little free bunny, they'll give you more free stamps.   What a deal....and what a cute image!  Thanks for the great present!

I colored my bunny with colored pencils, using the Gamsol technique.  I love to do this, but I'm not so good at it.  I used a sketch from RAQ's challenge on the Cricut messageboard.  Embossed the peach cardstock with the basket weave folder.

Birthday Bee in Plaid and Polka Dots


The challenge at Frosted Designs this week is polka dots and plaids.....my 2 favorite things!   I so adore combining patterns.   I used some florals with my dots and plaids (all from the scrap pile too!!)...and made a little flower pot and bee with my Cricut (George, Walk in My Garden, and Pooh and Friends)   Added some blingy accents and a felt sentiment....trimmed it all out with polka dot ribbon.
