New feature and a Gorjuss Hello

I have such a hard time deciding which images to pick to do sometimes, lol.  So after talking to Noelle at Quick Creations I decided I would do a new feature here on my blog.  Every month I will choose a different line of stamps to feature.  This month I have chosen Santoro's Gorjuss :)  Each stamp image I feature will be available at Quick Creations, although some may only be available through pre-order.

With that sorted, here is my first in this feature:

This is The Owl, a rubber stamp from Santoro's Gorjuss line, designed by Suzanne Woolcott.  I fell in love with these images last year, after speaking to a friend about what my style of creating actually is.  That was a tough one, trying to figure that out...I want to be all styles lol.  This is also a first for me, coloring on Kraft paper, and I definitely want to try it again, however one thing to keep in mind when coloring on kraft is to pay close attention to how the color of kraft paper changes the color of your medium :)  I will remember this for next time for sure!

I have colored her up using my Prismacolor Premiere Pencils, and paired her with paper from MME Indie Chic - Nutmeg, and MME Lost & Found - Portobello Road 6 x 6 paper pads.

This is such a fun image to color, and really lends itself to any style of card and color.  To purchase this and other Gorjuss dolls, you can visit Quick Creations.  Also don't forget to visit the blog, and join in our challenges!  Happy crafting!

New Release day at Inky Impressions

It's new release day at Inky Impressions!  I have used the new release background barn, as well as Lili's Chicks (isn't she so sweet!) to make an Easter card.  I also used the Happy Easter Banner to finish it off!

I love these images they were a ton of fun to color up!  You can find these and plenty more awesome digital images on the Inky Impressions website, and don't forget to enter the bi-weekly challenges, and use an Inky image!  See you soon!

Lucky Charms

Hi everyone, I have been away for a couple of weeks, I took a brief sabbatical to wrap my head around some things, but I am back and in full force!  My head is all figured out and I am ready for some good luck, how about you?

For my inspiration piece for Inky Impressions this week, I chose Shamrocks Lili, she is so sweet :)

I think she is picking shamrocks just for me!

I had fun coloring this image up, and I fall in love with their outfits every time.  I have two daughters, and they both have too many clothes :)
