Hello everyone!  It's already March!!!  WOW, that means that we are getting closer to Spring and I have to admit that I'm very much looking forward to this!!! The freebie offered by The East wind  for the newsletter subscribers this time is called Spring has sprung!  That is just perfect for this time right?!?  The challenge we have for you this time is about circles! For this little make I did a special make with my daughter:)  You can see the video here: The only sad part is that I didn't have a good weekend luck wise either.... and I reformated my little card so lost the beginning footage of this.  So you only see the ending part of the make.  Oh well it is what it is right?!? I went with some green colors that reminded me of spring!!!  I added a bunch of bling sequins and bingo chips I stamped as well with my paper artsy stamp in the background. I hope you like this!!! I am entering this little journaling card in the following challenges: Artistic in

Hello everyone I'm here with a beautiful digi from Karleigh sue .  I have done another little journaling out of the box (you have to see my series on Youtube to get why I call it that).  Where I'm using for the background some recycled cereal box (very cool when you consider how much cereal we go through with 4 kids in the house!!!! And this time I went retro!  I really love the awesome look of this digi for this.  She really reminded me of the dinner eras!  The super cute digi that I used is  Crop Top Cutie You can see on youtube how I made this. And here's the make that I did.  The sentiment is from  Gingers house ,  The image was colored with my copics.  I used my stamp from Paper Artsy.  I used many different layers on this and you can see them here here.  Hope you like it!!!

Hello everyone!!!!  It's time for a new inspiration post from me!  And I'm finally doing something new for my coffee book!  This time it's using a great digi from RSD called  Morning goddess carla . She totally reminded me of little Mrs Roper from 3s companies :) I used to love watching those as a child :)  yeah.... I was YOUNG! I have made a little video of the process that I did for this make and you can find it on Youtube here And here are the closer look at what I made.

Hello everyone!  I'm here this month with all masculine makes!!!  I know right?!? (yeah same start from last post lol) but it's true!!! It's rare that I did Art by Mi Ran male pieces!!! This is my very last post on the showcase !  I am leaving Art by Mi Ran.  Sad but at the same time I thought it was time.  Not sure that my stuff is up to all the fab work I see on here :)  I'm feeling that I'm totally fortunate to have been able to be here from the beginning and have been with this totally AMAZING group of artists!!!  And the most fabulous of them all is Mi Ran!  So sweet and generous with her time and advice.  LOVE HER and totally will be continuing to follow her and make stuff with her art. Anyway enough before I start crying here.... My last make is a playful one for my little nephew's b-day that is coming up.  I thought that   Jammin Jayden  would be perfect for him. I used a lot of left over papers that I had in my stash.

Well you know how I love the hippie era!!!  Hence my digi for my name from Karleigh Sue .  For this make I'm doing a journaling out of the box (you have to see my series on Youtube to get why I call it that).  I'm using for the background some recycled cereal box (very cool when you consider how much cereal we go through with 4 kids in the house!!!! I am doing so much now with recycled products and it's great to be using something of this kind!!! So here's the  digi  that I used so that you can check it out and play with it. You can see on youtube how I made this.

You are lucky I filmed my process if you are interested in checking this out And here it is for those of you that don't want to watch the entire process! The background on this is a cardboard from a cereal box!!!  I really love the idea of recycling this way.  I used some papers from my work desk as well as newspapers.  I used a great sentiment from Gingers house .  The gears were purchased at Ali Express.  I don't remember the paints that I used but you can see them on the video :)   The digi was colored with my copics and then fussy cut.
