A new Dilly Bean Digi

Megan over at Dilly Bean Stamps added some new images the other day and I just had to have this. There are a few more that you should check out at the Dilly Bean Blog.
For this image I colored her with my Copics and used some gel pens to add a little shine to the stripes on her shirt and socks.  These papers are from My Minds Eye from a couple of years ago. Love them.
The flowers are a cut file by La. La. Studios as is the butterfly.

 I even did a little stitching on the button eyes.

Hope you all have a great day. Now I have more images to color.

Traditional Christmas at Pile It On

Well this week at Pile It On we want you to show us some traditional Christmas projects. So what is traditional? I'm thinking using Santa's or manger scenes, angels or snowmen. Traditional color, to me, means that deep dark forest green (so wouldn't you know the old olive shows the most on mine) and burgundy shade of red as well as the Santa Suit Red. Gold is good too.

Our sponsor this week is Digital Delights and you can always find the perfect image at their Store. I used Santa and Poppet from the new release and this great lamppost. I used papers by Colorbok and the flower is an SVG Cut by La La Studio.

 You can see the glitter better in this shot.

                                                                     Pocket Book.
I had a lot of fun with this file from My Time Made Easy. The image by Jodie works really great here and I think my Granddaughter will love getting this at Christmas. Maybe with a few Copics in it or a gift card and a few little goodies. I used papers by Colorbok and the images are Bugaboo Rudolf Tree and  Christmas Tags- Rudolf.

 A close up of the images.

 side view. Thats some really nice glittery ribbon.

So now head over to the Bugaboo Challenge Blog and check out what the Design Team has to share with you and then go get busy with those pockets. Have a great weekend.

A Dilly Bean Christmas Card

 I bought this image last week from Dilly Bean Stamps  and it was sitting atop my desk yesterday when I got home from Michaels with some new Martha Stewart Christmas paper pad and border strips. The two were meant for each other. Don't you think?  It is hard to see that the base cardstock is shiney red and the dots on the second layer has the shiney red foil dots.

 The ribbon is eyelash ribbon with beads threaded on and the ornaments are cut from one of the sheets of designer paper. I colored the image with Copics and used Glossy Glaze on the eyes. love the angel wings too.

Hope you enjoy. Have a great weekend.

Friday Freebie at Bugaboo. Woo Hoo!

Here it is Friday again and it is time for another Freebie over at Bugaboo. Jodie just amazes me with all the wonderful creations that she comes up with and today is no exception.  These Little Penguins are the cutest. You must run over to the Bugaboo Challenge Blog and see the great creations by the Design Team and then head over to the Bugaboo Store and grab this FREEBIE for yourself . While you are there check out the other little Penguins that go along with the release today.
For my card today I used papers from DCWV and I made this wonderful flower from pieces cut with a Sizzix Die, from acrylic and then and glued on chunky glitter. I layered those with pattern paper. So fun.

You can see the details a little better here. Just love the Stickels on his belly and the snow.

I hope you all have a great weekend and don't forget to come by tomorrow to check out the new Challenge  at Bugaboo Challenge Blog.

New to Me Digital Image Again

It seems every time I turn around these days I'm coming across wonderful artists and fantastic digital images. And you all know we can never have too many of those. My husband would disagree I'm sure but.....what the heck. It makes me happy. So anyway I found Dilly Beans Stamps by Megan K. Suarez. They are very cute and I'm sure you will agree. So head on OVER and check out all the funtastic images right now. 

So for this first card I used the Framed Freda. The papers I used are from We Are Memory Keepers and I colored the image with my Copics. For the flower I cut layers with Tim Holtz Tattered Flowers Die and Sprayed them with Tim Holtz Perfect Pearls before I wadded them up and then shaped them to this wonderful ragged looking flower.

 See those neat metal leaves? From earrings that I got for a dollar. There were 18 leaves in all.

 This second image is Rosie Framed #2. This is colored with Copics and then I used a glitter pen on her eye lids and lips. The papers are by Authentique. Have you seen these yet? Beautiful weight and texture, colors and patterns. 

 I really like this image.

 Like the flowers? You guessed it Earrings again. We have this local market place and you can find a lot of these little stalls that carry necklaces and earrings for just a dollar. They are perfect for cards and layouts.  The butterfly was cut with a die I picked up at the Scrapbook convention last month. Beautiful.

Well I hope you enjoyed the new found images today and I hope you all have a great week and I hope to see you back soon. 

A Little Saturated Canary

Last month I found a new to me Digi Image company called Saturated Canary and bought some of the images and made a couple of cards. You can go to that Post Here. I finally had a little time this weekend and got to play again so I wanted to share this lovely little Princess and her Prince? I used my Copics to color the image and used glitter pens to make highlights in her hair and a glitter pen for trim on the dress. Glossy Glaze makes those little eyeballs shine. The beautiful papers are My Minds Eye Lost and Found Line.

 I cut the flowers and butterflies with an SVG file by La.La. Studio and the swirl is also a SVG file but I can't remember where I got it.

So now go and check out The Saturated Canary today and have some fun with the great images you will find there.  Have a good evening.
