Crafting Vicky

Hello everyone!  Hope you are all doing good.  This month the team of Art by Mi Ran is being challenge to do monochromatic!  So I decided to play along.... but wasn't sure what I could do until I came across this fab image! I'm pretty happy with how  Nurse Nora  turned out.  My brother's spouse is a Nurse and she's just so incredible at her work.... she does palliative home care!  She just amaze me.  And I haven't been really good at keeping in touch so figured I would make a special card just for her! I even did the hair red.... I really went all out for the monochromatic look!  Don't think a nurse would look like that... but I still think she's pretty cute.

Hello everyone!  I really love this new challenge place where all you do is share your love of artist and this month over at  Show your digi love  the artist that are showcased are: Art by Miran ,  Mazy art ,  Saturated Canary And I have decided to make 2 cards one with a Saturated Canary image that I have had for quite awhile and didn't use yet and one with an Art by Mi Ran image that I just think is soooo cute! Here's my Art by Mi Ran image 1st the Sweet Claire

So what have you guys been up too?!? Coloring some Mi Ran images I hope hee hee hee. This month the team here is being challenge to do unusual hair color! I had so much fun with my previous make that I did the theme again. I have to say as well that I liked to be challenged :) It's a great way to get out of my regular crafting. I had so much fun with the super cute Davina turned out. I think she is so very dreamy!!! Of course you could do the regular hair color and she would be awesome as well.

Hello everyone!  Hope you are all doing good it's my turn to host the Showcase blog of Art By Mi Ran .  This month the team here is being challenge to do unusual hair color!  I have to say that this use to be really hard for me but I started having a lot more fun with it. I'm pretty happy with how  Punkette Peta  turned out.  I really really adore this type of image.  There must be a little rebel in me that wants to come out :) She's really fun to color and there are so many version that can be done for that hair!

Hello everyone!  Hope you are all doing good.  I'm doing the showcase over at Art By Mi Ran  today and I decided to challenge myself to do ANOTHER CAS card with a Art by Mi Ran image... not easy but it's fun to try to get out of your comfort zone. I'm pretty happy with how  Honey Bunny  turned out.  My stepmom looooves bunny so I thought this would be a great little hello thinking of you type of card. Instead of focusing on the embellishments that I would use for this card I really spent all my time trying to color this cutie as well as I could and finding the right colors to showcase her.

Hello everyone!  Hope you are all doing good.  Today I'm sharing a card that I did for the theme of the month of February which is CAS.  OH my world!!!!!  Have you ever tried to do CAS with Art of Mi Ran images?!?  It's just sooooo hard! LOL they just seem to call for embellishments. But I think I managed ok because I was using the adorable  Rosalie . And well she's just so cute that it was EASIER to leave her be the center of all the attention on the card... but I still had to fight with myself to not put a lot of flowers lol  And I also went with a different color palette than my usual so it's more pastels for this card!  Thinking we need some warmth and flowers here. So hoping to bring spring along with this card.

Hello everyone!  Hope you are all doing good it's my turn to host the Art by Mi Ran inspiration blog .  I'm here to share with you something a bit different that I did :)  I figured it would be fun to share something other than a card. For this make I followed the theme of the month which was to use 3 of the same elements and I decided to play with the super cute  What's new Pussy Cat . Here's my little calendar page.  I figured she was perfect for a back to school image when your cat doesn't want you to go back to school!

WOW it's been a Full Year since Art by Mi Ran started up !  Where does the time pass?!?  I have to say it's been a real pleasure to be part of this team since the beginning!  I really do feel quite blessed :) I'm here to share with you the 1st make that I did as part of the team and the new make that I did with this fabulous image.  I still just adore the great  1920 Flapper So here's the 1st card that I did a year ago And here's my make this year with her.  It's very funny that I chose the same type of color tones even though I didn't check the past card previously. But you can see I have been taking classes in coloring because my coloring is not as chalky and pale as before!

Hello everyone!  I want to take this opportunity to wish you all a very Merry Christmas and a new Year filled with Health and happiness. It's my turn to post the inspirational post on the blog over at Art by Mi Ran  and I decided to go with the theme of the month which is Snowflakes. I decided to play with the super cute  Ice Skater Macy .  You can see how different my card is from Ruza's yesterday. Here's my card!  I did using my favorite colors for clothes :)  Turquoise and some grey

Hello everyone!  It's my turn to post the inspirational post on the Art by miran  blog and I decided to go with the theme of the month which is Snowflakes.  But I used a stamp this time around.  I decided to play with the super cute  Suzie Snowflakes from Treasured Times Rubber Stamps . It's such a GORGEOUS stamp that I went all out for is card lol Here's my card!

Hello everyone!  It's my turn to post the inspirational post on the Art By Mi Ran blog  and I decided to go with the theme of the month which is non traditional Christmas colors.  I was pretty excited by the theme actually because it meant one more Christmas card done!!! :) For my card I decided to play with the super cute  Winter Sofia .

It's time for me to post the inspiration blog for  Art by mi ran This time around I chose to play with the cute little image  Cute A Sauras She's such a little cutie and perfect right now for Halloween.  I used to love when my kids were younger and would dress up in those furry Halloween costumes! Here's my card!

Hello everyone! It's time for my 1st inspiration card for the month over at Art by miran .  This time around our theme is Fall/Autumn colors. For my card I decided to go with an image that is totally perfect for the season especially if you where in my area yesterday... it RAINED sooooo much lol.  Yup Fall/Autumn means not only beautiful colors of changing leaves it also means rain. So the image that I have used is  Rainy days I have to say that as a crafter... I really love those rainy days when I have an excuse to just craft while listening to the soft noise of the rain!!!

Hello everyone!  It's my 2nd inspiration card for the month over at Art by Mi Ran  and since our theme for the month is Die cuts or punches, you know that I will at least use a die!!! For my card I decided to go with an image that is totally perfect for the season that is coming in Canada which is fall.  We are really starting to feel the colder mornings and nights!  I will have to put my summer clothes away :(  oh well but it will be very pretty with the trees changing colors soon. So the image that I have used is  Autumn Leaves So here's what I have made with her :)  I went with some fall colors :)

Hello everyone!  It's my turn to host the blog post over at Art by miran !  This time around our theme for the month is Die cuts or punches!!!  How easy is that?!?  The opposite would have been more of a challenge lol For my card I decided to go with an image that was fitting for the season that is coming in Canada which is fall.  So the image that I have used is  Loving Autumn Annie So here's what I have made with her :)  I went with some fall colors :)

Hello everyone!  It's my turn to host the blog over at Art by Mi Ran !  This time around our theme for the month is Back to school. Again I decided for my make to use an image that you would not necessarily think of using but once you hear the story behind the choice you will agree I think. I was a border student for my 1st year of Highschool so the idea of the little suitcase reminded me of this!  So that's why for my card I used the awesome  Travelling Torrie So here's what I have made with her :)  I went with a blue color pattern. 

Hello everyone!  It's my turn to host the Art by Mi Ran blog post !  This time around our theme for the month is Back to school.  I decided for my make to use an image that you would not necessarily think of using but once you hear the story behind the choice you will agree I think. Remember when you applied to a special program and how much you wanted to be in it?!?  And don't know about you but that and my report cards coming in would have me checking up the mail everyday until it finally arrived!  So that's why for my card I used the awesome  Happy Mail So here's what I have made with her :)  I decided to go with a purple and yellow color combination.  I really hate how the purple often ends up looking bluish...

Hello everyone!  It's my turn to host the Art by Mi Ran Blog !  And I have challenged myself this month to do 2 cards with the theme of the month.  So I'm back with yet another card that's done in Red and white.
