Jingle Bells!

 I have been working on my coloring and today I finished this adorable image from CC Designs, Merry Christmas.  It's been a few years since I really enjoyed creating Christmas cards and I'm sure it's because I'm back to focusing on my Copic coloring!  More Christmas to come!

Create a Scene with The Greeting Farm!

I just purchased a few, well quite a few, of the scene builder digi sets from The Greeting Farm.  They are wonderful, each image is an individual file, they are easy to use. Below is the first scene I created.  I can see where creating scenes may become addictive it's so fun to mix and match. 

These images are from the Porch Christmas digi set, and the characters are from Dress Up Digi Set.  Extras are stamps in my stash.  This was colored using Copic Markers.

One more Whimsy creation!

 We have all heard that 'all good things must come to an end'  well my time at Whimsy is winding down - this is my last post.   I am very honored to have been asked to be November's digi stamp guest designer.  If you aren't familiar with Whimsy Stamps you are really missing out.  They have the biggest and best selection of digi stamps, clear stamps, dies, and all other crafty goodies from a large variety of companies and artists. 

This stamp set is called Frosty Wishes and it's a new digital release for November.  This set is loaded with cuteness so be sure to click above and check it out.

This was colored using Copic Markers and paper and snowflakes are all from my stash.

Coloring Practice!

I'm almost embarrassed to say how many stamps I have from The Greeting Farm but I do need mention that I was on their design team for a year and that contributed to my TGF stash.

Below are cards I just created using 'older' stamps from The Greeting Farm.  They have been in storage but were still plenty sticky and worked great when I got them out.  I have soooo many to play with still!

This was made using older stamp sets Hello Fall, and Wood Friends.  The stamps were colored on kraft paper, the tree/ground was done using Crafter's Companion Harmony inks.

This is probably one of my most favorite stamp sets from the past, Winter Greetings.  He was colored using Copic markers which are listed below.  You just never know when the mood to color will strike and now with TGF stamps out of storage you may see more!
