How Sweet!

Good afternoon!

Today I'd like to show you something a bit different from my usual cards: a little plaque with key hooks.

 

 

I bought this wood key hanger some time ago and I decided to decorate it with paper instead of painting it.

 

Paper is from Echo Park while the Mommy and Baby Bird digi stamp is from Drawn with Character, colored with Copics and just a touch of glitter in the flower. The banner is a stamp from Paper Smooches.

 

Aren't they sweet?

Well, this week we have a Christmas challenge here at C.R.A.F.T.!

 

This is my card:

 

 

I used this adorable bear digi stamp from Stitchy Bear Stamps: it's called Cartoon Polar Bear Holding a Gift colored with Copics and glitter. The background paper is from Bella Boulevard.

A Card for a Sketch Challenge.

Good morning!

Today I'm happy to show you a new card I've just finished:

 

 

I colored the image this past summer but I couldn't find a way to use it in a card. It's Lucky Birdbrain Chick from From the Heart Digital Stamps colored with my Copics.

The other day I saw the sketch challenge at From the Heart and... voilà, I found the way to use my chick! I wanted it to be the focus of the card and this sketch was perfect.

 

This is the sketch:

with a twist: CAS with paper strips (by the way, a great way to use those paper scraps I NEVER throw away!).

 

I love this cute lucky chick!
