Happy Thursday everyone and Happy Thanksgiving to those of you that celebrate this holiday! Although it's Thanksgiving, I'm actually sharing a Christmas card today.
I have another Sylvia Zet image today - I love her adorable and whimsical images :) This cutie is Christmas Bunny and of course I've used my copics and colored pencils to color it. I used Liquid Applique on his tail and then added lots of Glamour Dust and pearl dots for some sparkle. The sentiment tag is from the Christmas Labels Clear Stamps by Wild Rose Studio. I added a poinsettia cut with my Spellbinders Poinsettia die, a sheer bow, and some pearls.
Thank you so much for stopping by. Have a wonderful day!
Hugs, Anita

Good morning to all of you and Happy Thanksgiving to those of you that celebrate this holiday :)
Today I have a Sugar Nellie card to share. I have colored one of our newest fairies from the Return to Winter Wonderland collection ... Time Together. Isn't she a cutie? Love her sweet face and little outfit! Of course I colored her with copics and colored pencils. I added lots of Glamour Dust and pearl dots for plenty of sparkle. I wanted to be able to mail this card so I didn't add much in the way of embellishments, just a bow and a few gems. The sentiment is from the Crafty Impressions' Warm Winter Wishes clear set. You can find all these stamps at Funky Kits.
Thank you for stopping by. I hope you have a wonderful day.
Hugs, Anita

Hello friends! For those of you in the States, are you ready for the big turkey day? What about the big sales on Friday? Well, I do plan to eat way too much on Thanksgiving but I won't be fighting the crazy crowds on Black Friday. Been there ... done that ... way too much craziness for me lol!
Today over on the CC Designs Blog we are previewing the fabulous stamps from the November release. I decided to ink up these Sweet Penguins and the Swiss Pixie Snowy Wall. I colored these cuties with copics and pencils of course. I added some Glossy Accents to their beaks and feet and Glamour Dust to their candy and the snow. The sentiment is from the new Christmas Sentiments II stamp set by AmyR Stamps. Be sure to stop by the CC Designs Blog to see what the rest of the DT is sharing today. I know you'll find lots of inspiration over there!
Thank you for stopping by. Stay warm!
Hugs, Anita

Good morning friends. It's Tuesday so that means we've got a new inspiration post over on the By LORi Designs Blog today. We are continuing our Christmas/winter theme and I have used one of Lori's newer images on today's card.
This handsome guy is Winter Brian -
isn't he a cutie? I love his tophat! I colored him with copics and then used my colored pencils for some additional shading. I used a black glaze pen on his button and then added a snowflake with a button and hemp cording. Another clean and simple card that won't require any additional postage ... yeah! OK, be sure to stop by the By LORi Designs Blog to see what the rest of the team is sharing today. Loads of cuteness over there, I promise!
Thank you for stopping by. Have a wonderful day and stay warm!
Hugs, Anita

Happy Monday to all of you! So, are you managing to stay warm? It's still very cold here and I don't like it at all lol! I am just not ready for all this cold weather. And if I'm already complaining about the cold, I can't even image what I'll be like in January :) OK, enough whining from me.
Today I've used one of the newer images from CC Designs called Puppy Snowman. I'm a sucker for any image with a snowman lol! I colored these cuties with copics and colored pencils. I added some Glossy Accents to their noses and Glamour Dust to their hats and the snow. The sentiment is from the new Christmas Sentiments II set by AmyR Stamps and the snowflake is from the CC Designs Cutter It's Snowing Die. If you would like to see how to mask the image in order to ink in a darker background/sky, then stop by the CC Designs Blog - I've shared a little tutorial over there.

Good morning everyone! I hope you're having a fabulous weekend. It has been bitterly cold here and I even saw some of those white flakes flying around yesterday afternoon. Brrr! I'm hoping it's a little warmer today but we'll see how that goes :)
Today I have colored another new release by Jo Davies ... Santa Hat. This is a digital image and you can find her over in Jo's Etsy shop. Of course I colored her with copics and then used my colored pencils to add some shading. I used Liquid Applique on the "fuzzy" parts of her outfit and hat. Isn't she a cutie? The sentiment is from a set of clear stamps by Teresa Collins and with her sweet face I HAD to say she's been nice! No one this adorable could be naughty, right? Be sure to stop by and check out the rest of Jo's images here.
Thank you for stopping by. Enjoy the rest of your weekend and stay warm!
Hugs, Anita

Happy Saturday friends! So, have you stopped by the Sugar Nellie Blog to see the beautiful new images in our Return To Winter Wonderland? Aren't they gorgeous? I think Karen always does such a fabulous job finding the prettiest fairies for her shop!
Today I have used More Hands Make Light Work. I colored her with copics and added some shading with my colored pencils. Of course I had to add lots of Glamour Dust to her wings, jinglebells, and snowflake wand. Every fairy needs to have lots of sparkle, right? I also added a bow, poinsettia, and some snowflakes with pearls. You can find all my card details below. Please remember to leave comments so you'll have a chance at winning some lovely candy :) These new images are all available over at Funky Kits.
Thank you so much for stopping by. I hope you have a wonderful weekend!

Happy Friday everyone! We're starting a new Farm Fresh Friday Challenge today over on the Greeting Farm Blog. It was our lovely Rachel's turn to pick a theme and she chose ... Let It Snow. So, she wants to see snow, snowflakes, snowmen, or snowballs ... you know, that cold & frosty stuff :)
I used My Heart from our November release on my card today. I colored her with copics and colored pencils and then cut her out with nestabilities. I added Distress Crackle Paint and Glamour Dust around the edges of my dp and on the snowflakes. Then I put a little pearl in the snowflakes for some added shine. The sentiment is from an older My Favorite Things sentiment set. Be sure to stop by the Greeting Farm Blog to see what the rest of the team is sharing today. OK, go ink up a TGF image and let's see your snowy image in our FFF challenge this week!
Thank you for stopping by. I hope you have a wonderful weekend.
