Makin me Smile...

OK, so this card is loud...not my norm.  For this card I decided to go outside of my normal color range.  I'm a HUGE fan of pastels...Spring Colors are my pick..usually, but I absolutely love how it turned out. 

The super adorably cute image is the Futterby Fairy from Meljen's Designs, love her.

I colored this little sweetie pie using my Spectrum Noir Alcohol Marker...I'm still trying to get the hang of them.

Spring Joy

I have my first Easter card...yes it's another shadow box card...what can i say, i love them.
This is also my first challenge entry.  For now I'm only doing The Paper Shelter "Animal Magic" challenge. 

The image used is from TPS.  I used my spectrum noir and some brads, old brads, from Oriental Trading.
This SBC (shadow box card) has a side hidden pocket verses my previous version of the top loading pocket.  Whit this one the tag is attached and swivels out...love it. 

Spring Day DT entry...

This is a new twist for shadow boxes.  Ive gotten into a shadow box kick.  My first project was a dual shadow box invitation for my kids birthday.  I took it a spet further and made this shadow box pocket card....I love it!!!  My next project will be to make it into a shadow box slider card... we'll see how that goes...
This SB card is also my entry for The Paper Shelter DT call.  I'm so excited and way to nervous even for me.
I'm still kind of new at this so I'm hoping to get the hang of it quickly...here's hoping.
I do have the color combos used for this image and will update later.
