Koa-La-La-La-Laaaaaaa!!!

Good Morning Dreamerz, I know it has been about a lifetime since I have actively posted on the blog.  Personal reasons of which I will not go into but know that I am fine, healthy and happy.. 

This morning I want to share with you my coloring of one of the cutest digi stamps to come across my desk in a long time.  I knew when I saw this in it's uncolored form that it would be one of those digital images I would just fall in love with and pour a whole lot of my love into when creating.  So much so I actually printed it off twice and every color and aspect I did on one of the printed digi's as a test to make sure I was going to like it.  The color seemed to just flow so easily, every stroke and color I chose I was just super super happy with.  I actually had no intention of entering this project into any challenge but was encouraged to do so by so many.  

The image is called Winter Kiddles by Sasayaki Glitter Stamps and you can purchase it here CLICK ME TO PURCHASE while you are over at the shop take a look around and I dare you to not find another digi to add to your collection.  

Card Recipe:

Winter Kiddles digital stamp printed on Canson Watercolor

Distress ink in Peacock Feathers and Wilted Violet blended around edges then I used my fingertips to spritz water waited for color to lift/disappear then applied paper towel to further lift color.

ZiG Clean Color pens for the coloring of the image 

Nuvo Crystal drops and Stickles glitter for all the sparkly parts

Kat Scrappiness Stitched Rectangle Dies to die cut my completed project. SPECIAL NOTE if you have not used these dies before let me be the first to enable you.  They cut thru watercolor paper as if it was butter, clean cut, every little stitch perfect and the price point on this set of dies is absolutely Ah-Mazing $9.99!!! Seriously I cannot say or promote these dies more! I also own the rope dies and same thing just love love love them.

I have entered this card into the following challenges:

Hello, card with a gift

Good Morning Dreamerz!!

This morning I want to share a card and a few images so you can see a bit of a step by step.  I am going to try in the future (next week) to start producing more detailed blog posts showing how I create some of the cards.  The questions I most often get messages about are How did you do that?  I love that I have inspired you to create and even more that you share your creations with me. 

Have a great day Dreamerz, as for me and a few of my crafty friends we are off to Disneyland!!
