The Presents

This little sweetheart with the gifts is a stamp from Lilli of the Valley, she was such fun to color with my copics.

I used a sketch from  CLP Sketch Challenge which I was going to use when it was first shown on their blog, but a computer not working properly prevented that.  But, I thought it a very interesting sketch so I am using it now.  All of the DP are from DCWV,  I used four different sheets from the same pad.  I added lace to both sides and around the music piece.  The lace and the pink flower at the bottom of the card are stickers that have been in my stash for a very long time. The corner die cut is from Marriane Design and the perky little blue bow is also from my stash.

We should be nice and cosy this winter as we are having a new furnace, air conditioner and hot water heater installed to-day and they will finish the job to-morrow, but the furnace is running - good thing - as it may go down to 2 or 3 degrees tonight.  No hot water until tomorrow though!

A White Truck

The image of this white truck is from Doodle Pantry.  My grandson is having a birthday and as he is the owner of two trucks at the moment I thought I'd use one of them for the theme for his 20th birthday card!
One is white the other older one is beige.

This was fun to do, I used Paper Adventures Diamond Dust DP for the background.  The DP is black and has very fine particles of sparkling green dust on it.  ( It does not show too well in the photo, think I need a light box.)  I cut the truck out of white cardstock and added some color with copics.  The windows and headlights were given a coat of Ranger's Glossy Accents.  The sentiments are from TLC and I think they are perfect as his mother says he spends too much time in the garage!  I framed the image with white cardstock after I had stamped around the edges with docrafts Urban Stamp - sprockets and gears.

It's hard to believe I have three grandsons this age now, seems like only yesterday they were toddlers!

Every one is different, but all are enjoyable to be with.

The Good Fairy Glinda

This wonderful image is one that I won from Sassy Studio for a comment  in a blog hop.  It will be a Birthday Card for my nieces daughter who would like to be an actress - she is 11.  She is going to have the lead in the play Babes in Toyland in their local theatre in Ohio.  I hope her dreams come true, I know she will work hard.

 I have colored the image with copics and silver pen, but I have paper pieced her dress with the same DP as the border of the card.  The jewel swirls are from my stash.
