Cherie Cherry by The Paper Shelter Digital Stamps

 Hi friends!  This week, we have a wonderful theme on The Paper Shelter Challenge Blog:  SHAPED CARD.  I love making shaped cards but I don't create them very often.  I chose the beautiful Cherie Cherry image by The Paper Shelter Digital Stamps.  I always like to create a background for my images and so I drew one for this lovely lady.  Here is my Design Team card:

I used Copic markers and Polychromos pencils to colour the image.  My flower is handmade.  

Thank you for stopping by.  I truly appreciate it.  And, don't forget to visit The Paper Shelter Challenge Blog to see what the other Design Team members created.  We would love to see your creations and, of course, the usual amazing prize is up for grabs:

Well, that's all from me for this post.  Have a happy day.  Hugs, Lori xx

Butterfly Fairy Curtsy by Lemon Shortbread Digital Stamps

Hello, dear friends!  There's a new challenge starting today on the Lemon Shortbread Challenge Blog.  

http://lemonshortbreadchallenge.blogspot.com/

The theme is "Anything Goes".  Here is my DT inspiration:

Isn't she lovely?  The image is "Butterfly Fairy Curtsy", found in Vera's esty shop here:

https://www.etsy.com/listing/202535029/digital-stamp-butterfly-fairy-curtsy?ref=shop_home_active_217

This sweet fairy is coloured with Copic markers and Polychromos pencils.  I found the free scrabble tiles on the Internet.  I printed the letters that I needed and fussy cut them.  A bit of a challenge because they are so tiny...LOL.  Then, I coloured them and raised them with 3-D foam.  

Thank you for visiting.  I really appreciate it.  Have a happy day.  Hugs, Lori xx

Materials and Tools Used 

Foliage:      Cottage Cutz "Greenery" dies

Flowers:      I Am Roses and Love Nicole (large blue flower)

Sentiment:  Free scrabble tiles from the Internet
