Bunny Daffodil by Conie Fong

 Hello, my friends!  It's officially spring here but we actually had snow on Wednesday and snow flurries yesterday.  Yikes!  However, it's not unusual in this neck of the woods.

My DT card today features the darling "Bunny Daffodil" image, found here:  https://www.etsy.com/listing/972050279/digital-stamp-digi-stamp-digistamp-bunny?ref=shop_home_active_9&crt=1

I made this inspirational card for Conie's monthly Facebook Challenge:  https://www.facebook.com/groups/396730687168777  There's still time to join in the fun.  We would love to see your creations.


I made the large purple and the white flowers; the rest are from I Am Roses.  I used Copics and Polychromos to colour this sweet image.  The pearls on the centers of the flowers are coloured with Copic markers.

I wish you a happy weekend.  Thanks so much for visiting.  Hugs, Lori xx

Martini Glass Birthday Card

 Hi friends!  Here is something different from me.  I got this freebie martini glass digital stamp in 2011 from Andy Bauer.  Unfortunately, it is no longer available.  I decided to add some free candle and clipart images to the glass, and coloured it all with Copic markers.  And, voila!  A birthday card.  Crazy, right?


I added some glitter to the flame and stamped some tiny fireworks.  I am going to send this card to my niece's husband.  Hope he likes it.  Thank you for visiting.  Until next time.  Hugs, Lori xx


Materials and Tools Used 

Border:       Joy Crafts "Ornate Edge" die 6002/0357
Sentiment:  Bizzy Becs birthday freebie, backed with Spellbinders "Standard Circles Large" dies

Fairy in Blossom by Lemon Shortbread Digital Stamps

 Hi friends!  Time for another challenge over at the Lemon Shortbread Challenge Blog:  http://lemonshortbreadchallenge.blogspot.com/

It's no secret that I love fairies and so I chose the beautiful "Fairy in Blossom" image by Lemon Shortbread Digital Stamps, found here:

https://www.etsy.com/listing/786332904/digital-stamp-fairy-in-blossom-digi?ref=shop_home_active_9


I coloured this beauty with Copics and Polychromos.  I wanted a wide frame and so I cut the frame in half to accommodate the image.  The large blue flower is handmade, but the other lovely flowers are from I Am Roses. Finally, I applied Wing of Stella (clear) to her wings for a lovely glitter effect. 

Remember to join in the fun and enter the challenge.  We would love to see your creations.  Thank you for visiting today.  Have a lovely day.  Hugs, Lori xx
