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. 

Ragged Romance

This is absolutely one of my fav digi images.  Ragged Romeo from Mo's Digital Pencil. 

This was the card I made for my hubby for v-day.  I told him I loved my card soooo much that he wanted to cut it in half to give me back the image...I told him he can just put it in his "LOVE" box...yes ladies, my hubby has a love box. 

I was so excited with how his hair turned out.  It's not flat, it actually looks curly!!!  I tried taking better pictures but my phone has sucky picture taking features. 

I was going to post the colors I used for the image but apparently either I didn't write them down or I misplaced them.  Bummed about that because I really did like these color combos. 

Hasta Next Time!!!
