Birdy

Hi everybody!

Hope you are enjoying your weekend.  I had some fun yesterday colouring this super cute image which is a freebie at Twinkle Lane Designs Official Group on Facebook.  
There are some really darling images in their etsy shop:

Here is the card that I made:


The image is coloured with Copic markers and Prismacolor pencils.
The flowers are handmade. The fence is drawn by me.  Ribbon, Swarvovski crystals and pearls are from my stash.  I used Nuvo Glitter Drops (White Buzzard) on the body of the butterfly.  

Have a lovely day.  Lori P xx

October Lullaby

Hello, dear peeps!

This is my 3rd DT card which I created for Ching-Chou Kuik's monthly Facebook Challenge (theme:  Autumn). 
You can win some of her beautiful images if you join in the fun.  This glorious image is "Autumn Lullaby".


Here is a close-up:


She is coloured with Copic markers and FC Polychromos pencils.  The flower is handmade, and the border at the top is Martha Stewart's "Scalloped Teardrop" punch.  The stars were made by cutting up parts of Memory Box's "Superstar Border" die. The die cut under the flower is Tonic Studios' "Star Trail" die.

I hope you have a lovely week.  Lori P xx

I am entering this card in Through The Craft Room Door Challenge blog.  This challenge ends in 4 days so check it out:
