Sweet Lips

It's Friday, so we have another DOLLAR DIGI special for you up at Stretch N Bubbles.  This will be available for one week only.




I wanted the flag real bright to match Ethan's hair, so I colored it with copics in solid bright colors. I printed the image again onto the orange polka dot paper and cut out the top. So easy to work with these digis!


Go on over to SNB and grab this adorable image for only $1.00. It only lasts till next Friday!

Well, I'm off to the hospital to spend the day with Kelly and the new one that has not yet been named!!
Don't ask!!!!!!!!

You give me Wings


Happy Tuesday Everyone,

There's a new sketch up at Midnight Madness Sketch Challenge.  I used the beautiful Butterfly digi  from
Priscillastyles.  It comes in a set of 3. 

I printed the butterfly onto a transparency.  I let it dry overnight, but it was still a little wet and smudged.  So I lightly hit it with my embossing gun and it dried right away.  I used copics on the back side of the transparancy to assure the markers wouldn't smudge the ink. I put a few Stardust Stickles on the body for some nice sparkle!

I dyed the seam binding ribbon to match the purple and the flowers are a mix of WOC and Primas.  The background cloud paper is from MME, Lime Twist Collection.

Here are you choice of sketches


I hope you go over tro MMSC and check out the DT's projects!

Have a great day.
Hugs,
Marcy

New Dollar Digi

Hello Friends,

There is a new dollar digi up on Stretch N Bubbles.  I think this kite is so cute! 
I wanted it bright and simple, so I colored it with copics in solid bright colors.  I used the Sharpie Poster Paint marker to add the white dots for a little interest.  Then I cut it out and popped it on to the background DP.  So easy and it came out exactly as I had pictured it.

Go on over to SNB and grab this adorable image for only $1.00.  It only lasts till next Friday!

Have a great weekend!
Hugs,
Marcy

I used the image, A Little Birdie Told Me from Robyn's Fetish...so cute!  I am not much of a sewer, so I did some easy faux stitching.  You really have to look closely to tell that it is not thread!

MMSC Challenge

Hi Everyone,

I hope everyone had a great holiday weekend!  Summer is really here and I love it!

Today we have a new sketch challenge up at MMSC.    I used Priscilla's beautiful image of Grapes
I colored it with copics.  I used a lot of inking and distressing for that vintage look that I like so much.  The swirls are from Sizzix. 


Here are the sketches you can choose from.  I used the simple sketch. 

 I hope you take the time to go over and check out all the beautiful projects the DT created this week.

Have a wonderful day.

Hugs,
Marcy
