"A Little Birdie Told Us...

Tweet

Hello All,

Hubby took me to Hobby Lobby on a shopping spree last weekend as an extension of my Christmas and I went a little crazy! These pretty incandescent/metallic papers are from "The Paper Studio" they are normally $1.99 a sheet but were on sale for 50% off! Needless to say.....I had to get lots since they were on sale! Right girls? ;)

The "Crystal Domes" ( pink sparkly half pearls) are new too.

The CS is Stampin' Up and the DP is K&Company's "Wild Raspberry".

The stamp is from "Inky Antics"". I bought it when I first started stamping and painted it in multiples... some of which got thrown in a craft drawer. One of my resolutions is to use some of my already colored images up! ;)

I am entering this card in the following challenges:

ABC - "L" is for...Layering

Got Layers!

One Stop Craft Challenge - Something that begins with a "B"

Bird and buddies!

Corrosive - "These are a few of my favorite things"

Use 2 of your fave embellies -

again...ribbons and gems/pearls ;)

Crafty Angels - Recycle

I pulled another old colored image from my forgotten started projects

Everybody Art - Favorite color combo

I love GREEN and any other color! LOL!

Paper Play - Precious Metals

I used the metallic papers

Cute Card Thursday - All New (use something new)

SCS Ways to Use It - In With The New ( use something new)

If you have not already signed up for my latest BLOG CANDY....no better time than the present. ;)

Please leave a comment ~You know I adore them!

Hugs,

Mertyl the Turtle...Made with a digi stamp from My Original Artwork

Tweet

Hello All!
I have been busy designing some digi stamps from my original artwork that I hope to be offering for sale as soon as I get a good collection done up and figure out how to set up PayPal buttons. UUGGHH!
This is one of my first batches. Meet Mertyl the Turtle! A friend of mine suggested I do a turtle because she has one for a pet.
The papers are "Basic Grey" and "core'dinations". I really glossed up her shell but didn't quite get the second coat of embossing powder hot enough to be smooth. I think it really adds to the shell effect.
Please let me know what you think.
Remember, you can click on the image to enlarge.
Thanks for dropping by and I hope you have a great weekend! :)
