The Final Touch by The Paper Shelter Digital Stamps

Hi friends!  Hope you are well.  The theme for this week's challenge (#547) on The Paper Shelter Challenge Blog is

FOR A CHILD 

I chose the adorable The Final Touch image by The Paper Shelter Digital Stamps because what child does not like ice cream, right?  For that matter, who doesn't like ice cream?  I know I do!  LOL  Here is my DT card:

As always, I used by trusty Copic markers to colour this charming image.  I added some cute corners and a drippy border at the bottom. 

For more inspiration, please visit The Paper Shelter Challenge Blog where you will see some fabulous cards made by the other Design Team members.  While there, why not join us?  Up for grabs are some really wonderful images.  

Thank you for visiting.  Have a lovely day.  Lori xx

Rabbit Holding Daffodil by Conie Fong

Hey there, peeps!  Today, I am sharing a second card showcasing a newly released image by Conie Fong.  Conie recently released four darling little bunny rabbit images which would be perfect for Easter cards.  Not only can this sweet image be used for an Easter card, but for other occasions as well.  This sweetie is Rabbit Holding Daffodil by Conie Fong.  Here is my DT card:

I coloured this little bunny with Copic markers.  I decided that I wanted an egg frame and so I found this cute egg frame clipart by Yo Price Ville.  

Conie has a Facebook group where you can see more inspiration by, not only the Design Team members, but also anyone who joins in the fun.  Conie also hosts a monthly FB challenge.

Rabbit Holding Carrot by Conie Fong

Hello friends, and welcome to today's post.  Conie Fong has just released four delightful and adorable bunny rabbit images.   Perfect for Easter!  Two of the new images are very versatile, and can be used for other occasions besides Easter.  That said, I used Rabbit Holding Carrot and made a non-Easter card.

I drew the background for this little cutie and I coloured him/her and scene with Copic markers and Polychromos pencils.  

Conie has a Facebook group where you can get some amazing inspiration.  And, she has a FB monthly challenge.  Remember to stop by Conie's etsy shop to see the rest of the sweet bunny rabbits, as well as her other beautiful images. 

That's all for today.  Thank you for visiting.  Have a happy day.  Hugs, Lori xx

Bookworm Fairy by The Paper Shelter Digital Stamps

Hello friends!  It's hard to believe that it's already mid March.  We've been getting quite a bit of snow lately.  I am not of fan of snow anymore, nor cold weather.  But, we have to take what Mother Nature doles out, right?

This week's theme on The Paper Shelter Challenge Blog is 

ADD A TAG

One of my most favourite pastimes is reading.  Hence, I decided to use the lovely Bookworm Fairy for my DT card.  Clearly, she is reading outdoors, and so I drew an outdoor scene for her.

I coloured her with Copic markers, and then I added clear Wink of Stella to her wings.  I used that wonderful sentiment by Neil Gaiman because it truly captures the essence of reading.

Remember to pop over to The Paper Shelter Challenge Blog to see more fabulous creations by the other Design Team members.  While there, why not join in the fun?  As always, there are some amazing prizes to be won. 

Thank you for stopping by and I hope to see you soon.  Have a happy day.  Hugs, Lori xx

Hello friends!  Welcome to today's post.  Conie Fong has some truly darling new releases (nine of them) in her etsy shop.  My DT card features one of them.  This delightfully sweet bee is the girl version of Conie's Bee with Heart Bundle.  The release includes an adorable boy bee, along with two sentiments and a flower.  Plus, it's available in PNG and JPG formats.

Is she not the sweetest?  I coloured her with Copic markers.  I like to add some shimmer whenever an image has wings so I applied some clear Wink of Stella.The card has a white base but it's hard to see here.
