Lil Bit here to create!

Image
 Hello!!!!  There was soooo many release last week from Sandra Caldwell and this one was one of them.  This cutie is called Lil Bit and you can find it here . I used my very 1st homemade journal for this one.  And I was working on this while camping... so with very limited supplies.  The sentiment is from a magazine.  I used some sprays and got them to drip.  Then I stamped and did some doodling with my faber castel pens. I used copics to color this cute image and Chameleon pens as well.

Happy Friday everyone!!!!  Hope you are all doing well!  I have a new release image from Sandra Caldwell and you can find the super image Raggedy Rhonda here . I did this spread while on vacation.  And I had lots of fun doing it!  I used one of my very 1st altered book journal!  I have been using this one for awhile and I'm very much hoping that I finish it soon!!!! The background was made using some stabilo pencils and then using water with them. I glued some pieceds of book pages and added some stenciling details using a Tim Holtz stencil.  I have used some washi tape as well and some stamps that I purchased used but still had not used. Here is a closer look at Rhonda!  I colored her with my copics. And then I fussy cut her out.  The sentiment is from my stash of magazine cut outs. I'm entering this journaling in the following challenges: Just-add-ink  - Stencils - I used a Tim Holtz one  Patties creations challenge  - anything goes with an image Cra

Over dressed pig on summer holiday

Image
Hello!  I'm sharing with you today a fabulous new digi from Sandra Caldwell.  It's called over dressed pig and you can find it here . When I saw this guy it automatically made me think about the song I got to wear shades. I decided to make a tag out of it while I was camping.  The tag itself is made out of envelopes put together.  You can see the process for that in the video here . The background was made using stabilo pencils and then using water to spread them out.  I used some left over papers, a bit of trim and edged everything with a memento ink pad. Here is a closer look at the cute digi that I colored with my copics. And then fussy cut out. I'm entering this tag in the following challenges: Crafting by designs  - Anything goes Crafty creations challenges  - Anything goes Creative moments  - Anything goes option something funny - I think that fits :) Simon says stamp blog  - Add a sentiment Crafting from the heart challenge  - Anything goes

New release images from Sandra Caldwell

Image
Hello everyone!  There's a brand new release over at Sandra Caldwell   and it's a double one because Sandra took a short break :) I had the chance to play with gift box kitty and that was just perfect to make a layout in my ABC journal to introduce the newest member of our family!  I still don't have it but should in a few days now. I have made a video of the process you can see it here: And here is what it looks like.  Since I was working in a book I didn't want to use too much wet media because the paper is not the best for that sort of application.  But I still did put a bit of dylusion paint down as my base.  I also used some archival ink to stamp and make marks. The cute image was colored with my copics and then fussy cut out.  Here is the 2nd image that I worked with. The video of that process will be shown on Sunday. This journaling was done with the super cute image BEST FRIENDS FOREVER!  And I used my envelope journal to make this.  I have bee

Hello!!!!!! YAY it's Friday and I'm hoping that this weekend is better than last weekend and that we have some sun... more of it!!! So today I'm here to share with you a journaling out of the box and I had lots of fun doing this with the very new release image from Sandra Caldwell.  You can find them here . I made a video of the process and you can find it here: I used a cereal box cardboard for the backing of this and it's a bigger journaling card. I used some fabulous die cuts that were sent to me from Diane.  I also added some lace from my stash.  The image was colored with my copics and fussy cut.  The sentiment was handwritten and then cut out but I found the sentiment online and thought it was PERFECT for this.

Owl see what's up

Hello!  It's Friday.  It was a short week but boy oh boy was it a busy one and I'm exhausted.  What about you?  Did you celebrate at the beginning of the week?  Are you as tired now?!? lol I need a vacation from the small vacation. So are you ready for the new released images from Sandra?  She always ROCKS them!!!  And I'm in love with the one that I used which is Owl see what's up.  You can find the new release images here . Since this is an owl I decided to use it to embellish the blackout poetry book that I'm making for my dad and his spouse.  You can see the process in the following video: And here is what it looks like in the book.  The sentiment was found on the web. The image was colored with my copics and then fussy cut out. The background was made using some light blue paint and then I added some clouds using a new (used) stencil that I got :) Here is a closer look at the super cute image. I'm entering this in the following challenges:

Hello!  I'm late!!!  I was busy on the Canada day weekend.  I had fun going away for the weekend in Quebec city :)  Yeah haven't been there forever! So today I'm sharing finally what I made with the fabulous digi that was a freebie at The East Wind . The new digi was perfect for a Christmas card!!! And here it is I used some papers that I had left from fabulous paper packs.  I used a spellbinder die to cut out the sentiment from Create with TLC and the backing.  The oval was also cut out with spellbinder die.  I used my copics to color this image.  I used some bling that was from recollection.

Wooohooo it's Friday!!!  And this means a new release over at Sandra Caldwell etsy store . I was super excited about this one because well I love dogs lol. My start this time around was to find a sentiment that would go with him.  And since I wasn't having a particularly good day at the time I thought the sentiment that I found in a google search was just PERFECT. Since this is a journaling out of the box (journaling on a card) I have done a video of the process that you can see here: I really recycled here.  The background is actually a pizza liner that you use to cook your pizza.  The little circles were found objects. The cute image was colored with my copics.
