Peace on Earth

This is a card for Sassy Studio Designs Dare to be Sassy Thursday challenge http://sassystudiodesigns.blogspot.com.  This week we were to do  a Christmas or winter card with a sentiment.  Its not that hard once you see their wonderful images for the holidays.  What is it about white on white lately.  I just love it.  The background is an embossing folder from Stampin Up  and the sentiment from Technique Tuesday is stamped on a Spellbinders tag.  I enhanced the tag with stickles all around the edge.  I added a couple snowflakes (where they came from I still don't know. They were in my stash)  I colored the image on Mohawk bright white paper and mounted her using dimensional tape.  I lined her ruffles, the bottom of the cape, and bottom of her dress with Spica pen for a little glitter but you can't see it in the picture. 

Tuesday Morning Sketches

Today I did a card for Sassy Studio Designs and their sponsor this week is Tuesday Morning Sketches http://tuesdaymorningsketches.blogspot.com. I love this mermaid by Sassy Studio Designs  and thought I would try to do a card with her using some shells that I cut using old Sizzex dies.  Well they didn't come out so well but I love how the coloring came out on the mermaid.  I think what I love most about these images is the detail they have in their hair.  It is so fun to try to get the waves and dimension of it.  The second thing I have discovered is I like to color different types of skin colors and how to shade them.  It presents a real challenge to me.  While I was at the Copic Certification class Marianne Walker showed us how to blend colors so I did this on her tail and fin, going from green to a blue.  I did it at her waist too.

My Fair Lady

Over at Craft Your Days Away they are having a challenge to use metal on your card.  This is my entry.  I used an old Coke can to cut out the flowers with A Heartfelt Creations die.  I then colored it with alcohol inks by Ranger.  I had stamped it with the Heartfelt Creations stamp that co ordinates with this die before cutting it out but I used StazOn and evenditally it isn't one that is combatable with the alcohol inks because it dissapeared.  Either that or I am magic.  lol  The image is from Sassy Studio Designs called My Fair Lady.  I couldn't remember what her dress looked like in the movie and didn't know if it had pruple feather but my version does.  The little cornor stamp in the cornor is by Sweet Impressions Stamps (SweetStamps.com) 

Also at Crazy Challenge they are having a challenge to use a movie as inspiration for your card.  Of course it isn't hard to figure out what mine is ---My Fair Lady.  If you want to play along go to http://crazychallenge.blogspot.com   Have fun and play along

Steampunk by Kenny K

This lady is a little scary.  But again she was fun to color.  I think I am going to try the Bombshell stamps.  I was always intimidated by them but I think I am ready.  Bring them on.  lol

Queen Gorgo

Yep, I have done it again.  I can't tell you how much I am enjoying coloring these images.  This is a free image that they offer on Friday.  Not sure if it is still available but I would go to Paper Craft Planet, click on groups, join Sassy Design Studio, and download the free image.  Yep, I did her twice.
