Copics used for skin:

Blond haired - E50, E51, R13, RV21
Black haired - E33, E25, E11
Brown haired - E50, E51, E21, R20
Red haired - E30, E55, E77

Free Bug Rides!

It was such fun playing with The Greeting Farm's digital stamp sets Fairyland and Fairies.  Why not use the insects and have a different fairy riding on each?  The best thing about digital stamps is you can size them whatever size you wish, not to mention the fun you will have coming up with ideas and creating scenes when merging them together.

Images were colored using Copic Markers and the leaf die cuts were created using green cardstock and several different leaf dies.

It's raining, it's pouring...

This has been a typical spring in Illinois, cold, rainy, snowy...I am ready for that swing into warm weather and sunshine.  I decided since it's raining, I would create my own little rain scene.  The project was created with stamps, die and stencil from the  La-La Land Crafts Limited Edition Spring Box of 2022.  There is so much crafty fun in one box!

The critters from the stamp set Showers of Joy were colored using Copic Markers.  If you are interested in knowing what color combos were used for a certain critter just email me.  The Umbrella die is from La-La Land as well as the stencil set Rain and Shine Stencils. I used the stencil with My Favorite Things Blue Breeze ink pad the others were stamped with My Favorite Things Extreme Black ink pad on X-press it paper.  

Stay tuned - more crafty fun to come!

This stamp set is called Never Forget. This elephant makes me smile because I am always forgetting something. I think I should stick him on my purse so when I see him it reminds me, I'm forgetting something or someone.

He was colored using Copic markers. If you are interested in a color combination, please just email, I don't have any crafting secrets!
