Things with Wings

Good Morning Dreamers..

This morning marks my first project on a new Challenge Blog DT called

The Sponsor for my image is Bugaboo Stamps and I have chosen the cutest lil Dragon named Clyde and I thought the sentiment matches perfect with the image

Card Recipe:

Clyde digital stamp uploaded to Cricut Design Space, sentiment insert and written from Design Space. Colored in Faber Castell Albrecht Durer Watercolors and blended using a fine tip water brush filled with Ink Potion #9

Flowers cut out of velum via Design Space then inked with chalk inks for a nice soft color, iridescent stickles applied to center for a lil sparkle.

Clyde layer die cut using Fancy Frames Dies

I hope you have liked this cutie as I sure did enjoy getting him all colored up for you. We would love to see your "Winged" creations over at the challenge so please create, link up, and let me know if you did as I would love to show you some blog love..

Calgon and Unicorns??

Good Morning Dreamerz...

This morning I would like to share a really fun card with you all. Some of you may be old enough to remember Calgon Bath Powder and for those that do not know what this is I will explain. In the 70's and 80's Calgon bath powder used to run commercials and in most of them it showed a woman who was having a rough day, kids screaming, spilling coffee on her desk, burning dinner, getting a flat tire, you know just everyday life for a woman. At the end of the commercial it always showed the woman in a luxurious bath filled high with bubbles and a serene look on her face. The company's tag line was "Calgon take me away" I remember listening to women and often when they were having a bad day they would say "I need a Calgon moment"

This card is my "Calgon Moment"

Card Recipe:

Tiny Unicorn Digital Stamp from Sandra Caldwell

stamp uploaded to Cricut Design Space, sized and text added for print and cut

Unicorn colored in various colored Copic alcohol markers

Thanks for liking, looking and commenting Dreamerz..

So find a Unicorn and take a ride somewhere over the rainbow, and have your own "Calgon Moment.

Steampunk on a Sunday morning..

Good Sunday morning Dreamerz..

This morning I want to show you my colored image from the Nikki Burnette coloring book Spellbinding Images. I have been dying to get into this book and add my own special flair with color to the images yet I have been intimidated by some of the gorgeous work done by others that I have seen in the fan groups. So I decided to get my toes wet and chose one of the 3x4 inch pictures in the front of the book that were designed for you to try out your color scheme on. I must say that the added grayscale shading really takes the guesswork out of the coloring process. I did use multiple colors on almost all of it to add more depth to the image. I highly recommend this book for anyone wanting to do coloring and have a more realistic look.
