Love for Honor

Hello and Happy Saturday! I am so excited for this week's challenge over at One Stop Crafts. We are sponsored by the amazing Saturated Canary and got to make 'Love is in the Air' creations. I'm a huge fan of fairy tales, especially medieval times with castles and princesses. I prefer the strong, independent princess, and fell in love with this image called Honor. She reminds me of Merida in Brave. I didn't try to recreate her crazy, red hair; I just went for the general 'feel' of her.I hope you like my card and.....
Thanks for looking! Spicey Cat Chick =^..^=

My Creation

Image Detail

I really like this hair combo (see the details at the end of my post for all the colors). I used liquid pearls to accent the die cut mat.

I like adding Crystal Effects to the Saturated Canary images eyes. They are always so large and beautiful. The shine helps make them pop. I also added some to her lips.

 Tricky to see,but there's also crystal effects to the arrowhead and I used Stickles on the bow's feather and in a few other spots on the image.

Snow Friend Fun

We had our first significant snow fall in Southern Minnesota this weekend. WAHOO! They tried to call it a blizzard, but since the temp stayed around 30F and there was minimal wind, I don't think blizzard qualified. My house got about 11 inches of snow which certainly meant it was time to break out the snowblower. Thankfully Mr. Gears was home for the weekend and took care of the chilly duty. I stayed in my pjs all weekend. :o)

This is my first  creation with a Saturated Canary image and I'm in love! I've been eying the super cute images in blogland for awhile and finally broke down and bought some. They are so sweet and many remind me of Precious Moments. They are our sponsor this week at One Stop Craft Challenge. We'd love to see you play along with our Christmas Friends theme.

The color in the picture above is correct, not sure why my other pics got so off in tones.
