Atlantic Hearts Sketch #140

Okay, so just one more post for 2015! :D I couldn't resist!

I'm entering this sketch today from Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge as a fun little end of year page! I love it! It is my fifth child's First Christmas, and I love how the photos from his photoshoot turned out! 

I picked up a gold Recollections paper pack from Michaels at the beginning of December and the gold backdrop works well with the shine! (I love shiny things!) The sentiment is from a Project Life pack (and we all know how I love to keep packaging right? *insert sarcasm*) 

Here it is!

~happy crafting and a many blessings and adventures in the New Year!~

Creative Corner Challenges - Must Have 3 Embellishments

Hi all! This challenge is a super fun one! Anything goes as long as you have 3 Embellies in your work! AND?! We are sponsored by A Day for Daisies!! Love it!

Head over to Creative Corner Challenges to check it out! 

My digital stamp can be found here at A Day For Daisies! I played around with my watercolor pencil crayons from Close to My Heart. I've never actually used a paintbrush with them, but I really like how it turned out! I did the drippy look on purpose! {incase you were wondering!} I free handed the "You're my cuppa tea" using the Riesling font from Dafont as reference. I added Liquid Pearls to the hearts on the cup; Tim Holtz stickles on the wings...and 3 glitter brads as my embellies. I had an extra 8x10" frame kicking around and thought it would be perfect for displaying this piece! I think I will be making more pieces like this! I'm so in love with this stamp! Thank you ADFD!

Here is my challenge for this week!

Enjoy and have a super weekend!

Creative Corner Challenges - BOOOOO!

October?! Wow! Welcome to another challenge with Team Jess over at Creative Corner Challenges
Today's challenge is a Boo-ti-ful one! Our theme is BOOOO! and anything goes!

I found inspiration for my project here at One Krafty Kat.

I made this into a piece of wall art that I will post in my front hall this month. Lots of fun Graphic45 paper used on this one today! 'Steampunk Spells' As well as some Tim Holtz Distress Inks and Stickles. The owl stamp image is from Michaels many years ago!

Here it is!

Have a wonderful weekend!
