Garden Bouquet by Conie Fong

Greetings friends!  For those of you who celebrated Thanksgiving yesterday, I hope it was an enjoyable and happy day.

Today, I am sharing my inspirational DT card featuring Conie Fong's gorgeous "Garden Bouquet" image.  This lovely image also comes with a second image called "Bootiful Bouquet".


I coloured the image with Copic markers and Polychromos pencils.  Then, I decided to fussy cut the image.  It's been raining and dark all day today so it was a bit hard to take a good photo.  The card does look considerably better IRL. 

I thank you for stopping by.  It's very appreciated.  Have a lovely weekend.  
Hugs, Lori xx

Coffee Sprite by Aurora Wings

Hello friends!  I hope you all had a nice weekend.  I start every morning with a large mug of hot black coffee.  The much anticipated 2022 Fall/Winter Coffee Lovers Blog Hop is going on now through November 18.  There are so many wonderful super sponsors.  How exciting!

I created a card for this hop using Aurora Wings' delightful Coffee Sprite.

This sweetie is coloured with my usual mediums (Copic markers and Polychromos pencils.  I generally like to ground my images so I drew a very simple background.  

That's all from me today.  Thank you for stopping by.  I wish you a lovely week.  Hugs, Lori xx

So Pretty!! by The Paper Shelter Digital Stamps

Hello, dear friends!  Welcome to my DT post for the new challenge on The Paper Shelter Challenge Blog.  This week's theme is SHOW ME SOME BLING.  What an awesome challenge!

I am showcasing the charming So Pretty!! image by The Paper Shelter Digital Stamps.


I used Copics and Polychromos to colour her.  I had a sheet of adhesive rhinestones by Recollections.  I used only part of the sheet for my card.  With all due respect, the card looks so much better IRL.  OK, enough bragging!  LOL

That's all from me today.  Have a happy day.  Until next time, Lori xx
