Fairy Owl

Hallo,
  Trying to decide if I want to go back outside and do yard work this am - I really should...but my morning walk - all of 35 minutes - brought me back totally sweated out and  I am really not in the mood...
  My DD and I went and saw the movie 'MAX' about the military working dog  - really good, I almost thought they were going to let the dog die at the end and I would have been really mad but he didn't so that was good :)
  Another in the reading card series for you today.
I used 'Will-O and the wisps' by Norma J. Burnell over at Sweet Pea Stamps and colored her with prismacolor and polychrome pencils.
  I just love this little owl - so cute!!!
  I layered the main panel to a gold cardstock, edged both panels with gold metallic pen and added some gold corner stickers.
  The back is stamped and embossed with stamps from Papertrey Ink.
  All for today - I am thinking I will just do some house work (boy it really must be hot for me to CHOOSE housework!!)

Owl Friend

Hallo,
  Well the pups got me up about 7 after being awake half the night and now I am getting sleepy again - grr so a quick post here and time to get a move on because if I take a nap I just wont be able to sleep again tonight...
  Another of the tarot/reading card series I am making for a customer this one with a tangle image from Norma J Burnell called 'Estella Avery' Image from Sweet Pea Stamps.
  I colored her with prismacolor pencils and layered her to a heavy, shimmery gold cardstock.
  The back of the card is stamped with stamps from Papertrey Ink and embossed with black.
   All for now - Take Care

Sweet pea Stampers - Thinking of you.




 
Hallo,
  Welcome to another Sweet Pea Stampers challenge - this time we are doing a 'Thinking of you/Sympathy' card.
  I chose an image from Norma J Burnell called "My Deep Love" and colored it with prismacolor pencils.
  This image is available as a rubber stamp as well as a digital image.
  I added a silver die cut in the background and the tag of the same silver paper, framed the image with some pretty seed beads and added some pretty flowers in matchy matchy colors, and lastly 2 small metal charms from my stash.
  All for me today - tons of errands and fun stuff on my plate today!
  Hope your day is busy, happy and healthy!!!!

Will-O

Hallo,
   Just a bit of computer time this am before I head off to sleep - after tonight I only have 5 more nights to work (not in a row!!) and then I have 2 weeks off!!! Yipppeee.
 I will be having a booth at a local craft fair on the 18th and then the next weekend I have a Nursing conference for 3 days....
  Todays project uses a digital image from Sweet Pea Stamps called 'Will-O and the wisps' she is by Norma J Burnell and is also available in rubber form.
  I colored her with prismacolor pencils and added her to this great 3-D Portrait frame designed by my friend Vicki - http://vickichrisman.blogspot.com/  The die is available through Accucut - http://www.accucutcraft.com/
  I added a bunch of fun embellishments and a rub-on for the phrase.
  We are finally getting some nice fall weather here in NW Florida - 60 degrees yesterday am and today - perfect for me!!!
   All for today - Have a great weekend!!!

Yule Ornament

 Hallo,
   We are seeing a bit of sunshine this afternoon after raining most of the morning (which is really night for us night shift worker/day sleepers sometimes :) so I got a picture of the card I finished yesterday to show you.
  I made a Christmas card using Norma J Burnell's  'The Gift' from Sweet Pea Stamps. She is available both as a digi and a rubber stamp. Check her out here - www.sweetpeastamps.com
  I colored her with copics and cut her out with a Spellbinders die.
  I edged the layers with gold metallic pen, added a couple ribbons and some pearl drops in gold with a viva décor pen.
  She is so much fun to color - so many possiblys!!!
   All for today - back to work tonight!!!

Red, White, and Blue

Hallo,
   Well just getting up for the day after working the last 2 nights - boy was it hard for me to get back in the swing of 12 hour night shifts after having a couple weeks off!!!!
   First if you love your Sweet Pea Stamps like I do then you need the coupon codes here and need to go shopping :)
(then come back and visit me :)
   I altered another journal for todays project - this one is a sketch journal and is 9 inches wide by 11 inches tall.
  I used the Sweet Pea image called 'Cybele & Kaida (little dragon) by Norma J Burnell and colored her with my copics.
   I used a couple Spellbinders dies and edged the main one with a gold metallic pen. Added some red beaded trim and some paper flowers that I spritzed with some blue glimmer mist (ocean or turquoise, not sure) and then added some pearl drops with a teal viva décor pen.
   I also added some metal corners from Tim Holtz to make them more durable.
   All for me today - should try and get a few things done here today :)
   Take Care
