The Flavor of Love

Who doesn't love a great Phindy image?  I know I do, and I think this little guy "Brave Heart" is just perfect for valentines day.  Actually there are several great images that would work perfectly for the one you love. 

Everything on my card is from my kit from My Creative Scrapbook.  I've been doing some research on coloring lately and trying out some different techniques.  I'm not great at shading and mixing colors so I've been really trying to do more of that.  Let me know what you think and please don't be shy in critiquing.  I could really use the help.  Any links you know of for Prisma coloring would be greatly appreciated too.  Everything is copic these days, it's been hard to find them.  I might even see ya later today with another card.  I have a couple still in the works!

Desktop Calendar

Happy Saturday!  My hubby is off hunting so I thought I'd get a quick post in before he gets back and we take off.  My secret pal send me a desktop calendar for my birthday that I absolutely LOVE!  I thought I'd make a couple for some friends.  I have to pick up the mini calendars still, but you could also use it for post-its.  Very versatile and it folds flat for mailing too.

Made with scraps!

Good Morning!  I wanted to challenge myself to using up some of my scraps.  Lately the scrap pile has been getting a bit large.  So I reorganized it in hopes that I will go there first! Yeah, right, but I can try anyway - LOL

But this card I did make completely out of things from my scrap bin.  This is an adorable picture from Stretch N Bubbles. It was offered as a freebie this week you can find it at the SNB Shop.  I just love freebies!  I made him into rudolph because I wanted to play along at Southern Girls too and they had a transport theme.  Who better to do transporting at this time of year but Rudolph!  Then Polka Doodles was looking for a quick and easy card and this definitely falls into that!  I followed this easy sketch at Get Sketchy and since the image is quite simple it was a breeze to color.  Using my bow easy made the ribbon (RRR) look beautiful.  I was able to embellish it and still had it done within half an hour.  Easy Peasy!

All from my stash!

And the two little ribbons on top of my image were the ends cut off from the ribbon at the bottom.  No waste!

Sweet Pixie

I used this sweet image from Pixie Dust Studios called "Autumn Grace".  I decided to color her in shades of pink.  The challenge at Pixie was to do a sweet baby card.  I chose a sentiment from a friendship set I got a long time ago that reads "The first man a little girl falls in love iwth is her dad."  I just love that saying.  I love my dad more than anything and it's so true!  I followed the sketch at Midnight Madness.  Loved it.  I added the little butterfly and a swirl stamp and then glittered it just to add some sparkles.  The papers are basic grey from one of my favorite collections, Eva.  I'm really trying to use my scraps to a little something the insides of all my cards as well. So here's what I did with this one.  I just used two pieces of scrap papers layered them and punched some tiny hearts then used the punched hearts to add a little design.  And nothin went in the trash!  Yay.

Don't forget that there is still time to enter the Hodge Podge Challenge.  You can find it here!  I have another post in the works but I'm having problems getting my pic's to upload.  Hopefully it will be up soon!

Thanks for stoppin by I read every one of your comments and they mean so much to me.  Especially since I can't get out and about!!

Hugs -
