Sorry in advance. The photos are really bad. Im having major camera issues.

Love the Moose.!  Thats' kinda like me with Christmas lights, only with a lot of yelling, screaming then crying. Thank goodness  I have a fibre optic tree now.  Ha! Ha!

Bugaboos Christmas moose image was colored using copics. For fun I mounted the image using a wobble spring.

Sentiment from Stampin Up.

Mos Digital Pencil Image " King for a Day" was colored using copics. The clock die by Lizzie Mayne was cut on my Silhouette Cameo. I added glass finish to give a little more dimension and sheen.

 

My 4 panel pop up card was made using my own cut file I had made back a year or so.  I have since seen a version of this card on the silhouette store.  They call it a twist pop up card.

 

The designer paper used is from Recollections and the sentiment is from Create with TLC.

You Still Look Hot!

I choose this fun "Birthday candle Birdbrain "image to participate in the latest sketch challenge at From the Heart Blog.  This image is too funny I just couldn't resist it and I love all the sentiments that come with this set.

 

 As usual the image was colored using copics with liquid glass added to the eyes candle and sweat.  I cut the hole on the bottle of liquid glass too large so I wasn't able to control the flow very well. Hence the blobs on the drips. Once you drop it on there is no going back. LOL  The Designer paper is BoHo Chic. I gathered a paper punched border to frame the circle and then embellished with some stick on gems.

GOOD LUCK!

Another great new image from the March Stamp of the Month Challenge on now at From The Heart blog.

 I used the sketch from another ongoing Challenge(I heart sketches#166) also at From the Heart Stamps, although I turned it on its side. The sentiment on the front actually said " Good Luck Sweetie" but I had a wee little accident when I was placing my flags on the black strip. Apparently the tape I used sticks a little too well and doesn't allow for any adjusting. LOL 

 I colored  Lucky Little Birdie  using copics

At My Age

 Gus is one of my favorite character from Bugaboo Stamps. How can you not love a guy with such a sunny disposition and style. He  should have worn a heavier sunblock.

Happy Valentines Day

 This  little angel or cupid from  A Day For Daisies was colored using copics, and embellished with glass finish and liquid pearls.   I used Lorie Whitlocks Matchbox Drawer Card for the fourth and final match box card .  My valentines Day projects now complete .

I've had this little clothespin for so long I just had to use it for something so that is how I finished the card off. I also added a liquid pearl heart to the inside of the card.

All My Butt

As I said in my previous post I have 4 grandchildren I give little Valentines treats to. This is number 2 Treat Box. (Lorie Whitlocks Matchbox drawer card)

Look at those eyes!! You can always count on a dog to love and look up to you. This wonderfully sweet image from Mo's Digital Pencil was colored using copics. The glassy look on the eyes as well as the heart with sparkles added is Papier Glass Finish.  I also added some liquid pearl surrounding the image.

Oh and the funny sentiment was one I had seen somewhere and just jotted it down. I am using this card for my grandson who is 13. I thought he'd get a kick out of it.

Peace Love and Cupcakes

 

Cupcake mouse from Mo's Digital Pencil was colored using copics. He was a fun little guy to color.  Other than  the sewing I kept the card very simple. The image kind of tells it all so I didn't want to go overboard with embellishments.

                                       

Inside card sentiment is one from Create with TLC.
