Inky Impressions New Mother's Day Digi Release

Hello,

How is your week going? Mine is going well and the weather is gorgeous. I thought before I shared my  card I would show you all the fun goodies I bought at the scrapbook convention this weekend.

Now for my card! You can get this sweet Mother's Day Digi at Inky Impressions. I used Copic Markers to color my image. I used several die cuts and a charm with a bow.

I am entering my card in the following challenges:

Crafty Catz - Challenge #180  The Colour Purple

Stampin for the Weekend - Die Cuts and/or Punches (Cherry Lynn Flourish Die, Spellbinder Dies, Magnolia Doohickey Die Vintage Tag and Martha Stewart Butterfly Punch)

Today I have created an altered canvas. I colored my image with the following colors: Skin E000, E00, B01, R21; Hair E31, YR20, YR21; Dress BG10, BG13, BG45, BG49; Bubbles B0000, B01. I used paper from my stash. For the banner I cut it out of a piece of Mind's Eye paper, added the circle letters and then added some velvet ribbon. Die cuts Magnolia Doohickey Vintage Tag, Cherry Lynn small and large flourish, and Docraft leaf. To cover the sides I used tape from Tim Holtz.  To complete the canvas I used misc embellishments, ribbon, netting, flowers and knob.

The Digi Bells DT-Guest DT Call

Greetings,

I was very excited when I found your Guest DT call. I have always admired the creations that Julie Price did. I love the images they are so precious.

I chose to lift for my card which LIFT means that you pick out a couple of things from the card you are lifting but still make your own interpretation.  I used a creation done Janiel Corley.

Here is my card for the Guest DT Call.

The stamp is called Carrie Swan Princess Elisabeth Bell.

I lifted the idea from the flowers, bow, feathers and pearls. And I added a sentiment plus my image also has wings. I colored my image with Copic Markers, added some fine white glitter to her wings and the swan and to create the background I used Tim Holtz distress ink. The leaf die cut is a new tool for me from Docrafts (love it). The paper is from Graphic 45 "A Secret Garden". I added a doily, flowers, ribbon feather and my sentiment. As I was creating this card I thought it was perfect for Mother's Day. Let me know what you think! Thanks for the opportunity to be considered as a guest DT.

Here is  a closer view of my card:

Hello,

It's hard to believe it is already Wednesday! I am so excited; this Friday and Saturday I am spending time with my crafting friends. We are going to the scrapbook convention then to our favorite shopping spot. Can't wait to buy some new goodies.

Today I would like to share a card today featuring a Sarah Kay Image - Pink Joy. However, I did not color her pink. I used a lot of yellow which is not my color of choice. I stamped the background with Magnolia's Barbed Wire Stamp.  I used some dies, netting, ribbon and bling to complete my design.

Happy Friday,

I hope you had a great week. I can't believe it is already April. The time just flies by. I made this canvas for my daughter-in-law. It was very difficult to photograph this because of the metallic paint I used. I am so addicted to altered canvases.

I want to purchase the Prima Paper Doll Stamps and use them on an altered canvas. This Graphic 45 paper is a must have. It is absolutely gorgeous!

I hope I have inspired you today. Have a great weekend!
