Antoni Coffee Gnomie by Digi Doodle Studios

Hi friends, and welcome to my post today.  Digi Doodle Studios is having their Christmas in July now on their Facebook group.  I am showcasing my Guest Designer card with Antoni Coffee Gnomie by Digi Doodle Studios.  This adorable image is very versatile and can be used for just about any occasion.

This cutie is colored with Copic markers and a bit of FB Polychromos pencils.  I like to use non traditional Christmas colors once in a while.  I added some snowflakes by The Paper Studio and Studio G.  The sentiment is computer generated.

Be sure to check out the Digi Doodle Studios on Facebook here where you will find some wonderful inspiration.  And, if you are looking for truly adorable digital images, and also clear stamps, please visit the Digi Doodle Studios etsy shop.  

That's all for today.  Have a happy day.  Lori xx

Sally's Christmas Friends by Conie Fong

Hi dear friends!  I am sharing another Christmas card using the lovely Sally's Christmas Friends by Conie Fong.  I posted a card with this image a few days ago, but I used different colours on this card.  You can find this wonderful and versatile image in Conie's etsy shop here.  Here is my Design Team inspirational card:

I used Copic markers to colour this image.  I added some icicles at the top of the card and some snowflakes.  

There is more fabulous inspiration by the other DT members, and other crafters who love Conie Fong's images, on her Facebook groups called Conie Fong Art & Design Group.

Have a happy day.  Until next time, Lori xx

Hello peeps!  I hope you are all doing well.  My DT inspirational card today showcases a gorgeous image by Conie Fong called Angel Whispers.  It is available in both PNG format and JPG format, and comes with two butterflies and 3 sentiments.  

I coloured this beauty with Copic markers, and applied clear Wink of Stella to her wings. I inked the embossing folder and added a few tiny flowers.

That's all from me today. Happy 4th of July to my American friends. Stay safe and have a wonderful weekend. Lori xx

Halloween Witch Kitty by Aurora Wings Digital Stamps

Greetings friends!  Halloween is almost upon us and that always makes me smile because I have such cherished memories of my children wearing their Halloween costumes (which I made) when they were young.  They are adults now but I still send them Halloween cards and a special treat!  

I made this card some time ago and never posted it, so here it is.  It features the adorable Halloween Witch Kitty by Aurora Wings.

I used Copic markers to colour this super cute image.  The flower is handmade and also coloured with Copics.  The stamens were originally white but I coloured them with my trusty Copics.

That's all from me for this post.  Thanks so much for visiting.  I wish you a happy day.  Hugs, Lori xx

Jezz and Kitt by Digi Doodle Studios

Hello friends!  I wish you and your loved ones a healthy and very Happy New Year.  I hope this year is better than the past two years.

Digi Doodle Studios' first challenge for this year started yesterday.  The theme is "Be Happy/Favorite Things".  I chose the delightful Jezz and Kitt image.  This image makes me happy because it includes a sweet kitty and a lovely fairy (two of my favourite things).  OK, kitties aren't things but they definitely occupy a special place in my heart.

I created a simple background for this darling image.  The mediums that I used are Copic markers and FC Polychromos pencils.  I applied clear Wink of Stella to the fairy's wings.  The lovely papers are from Heartfelt Creations "Sugarspun Collection" paper pad.  I printed the sentiment right onto the cardstock.  I also used a tiny heart punch by Studio G and added the hearts to the top and bottom portions of the card.

There is also a Digi Doodle Studios challenge on Facebook.  We would love to see your creations on either the blog or FB (or both) so why not join in the fun?  

That's all from me today.  I wish you a great day.  Hugs, Lori xx
