This card was made for a dear friend at work whose sister passed unexpectedly. I made the card with several pages so that lots of people could sign. I made another one recently and that worked out very well. The papers are from my stash. All flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts. The doily die is from Cheery Lynn Designs. I cut one of the doilies in quarters and used the pieces to decorate the inside pages.
This is the first of my February Christmas cards for Splticoast's Christmas Card Challenge. I'm planning on making three Christmas cards each month. It worked out very well last year. I made six a month, but had way too many so I'm cutting back this year. This is a favorite image of mine. It's from Isabella's Sketchbook. It's available here. Copics: BV11, BV17, C0. C1, E17, G21, G24, R22, R24, R29, R35, R37, R39, R59, R89, Y13, Y15, Y17, YG61, YG63, YG67, YR20, YR21, YR23, YR24
I figured with all the Valentine's challenges out there I should make a Valentine's card. I never send them, though. This adorable image is from Stitchy Bear. It's called the Raggedies. I have always loved Raggedy Ann and Andy. I have made a couple sets. The first set I made before my oldest daughter was born. I still have them sitting on a chair in the guest room. I don't think I'll ever part with them. This card makes me want to sew another set. I colored this with Copics. I didn't save the color numbers. I was working on four cards in a row and didn't put any away. I had to laugh, my daughter came out and looked at my work area and I had about a hundred makers spread out on the table. What a mess! The heart dies are from Cheery Lynn Designs.
I am starting a series of tousled hair boys. This is the first, "Irish Eyes." I grew up believing I was half Italian. When...
