Proud as a Peacock Scrapbook Layout

Created this Proud as a Peacock Scrapbook Layout using a Stitchy Bear Peacock image I won in their last challenge. Was happy when I found the phrase "Proud as a Peacock" on the Straight from the Nest Cricut cartridge.

Made a pocket with the image to put journaling tags in to use for scrapbook layout of O'ahu March 22-26 2012 vacation.

Using pencil colors & glitter I colored the Peacock in colors of the rainbow: blue, green, pink & yellow. Perhaps not as noticeable as the other colors, the pink is on the Peacock's beak.

Photographed this with a fan that was given at the wedding I attended in O'ahu March 24.

Queen Gorgo Spartan Queen Artwork

Created this artwork using a Sassy Studio 
digi image, Queen Gorgo, Spartan Queen.

Colored the digi image using Crayola pencil
colors. I found that a white eraser helps to
remove a mistake or lighten the color.

Used some glitter gold cardstock. 

Recycled some upholstery fabric that I got 
at a Live to Go Green event that hubby & I 
attended Sat 4/14. There was a booth that 
for $2 you could fill up a cellophane bag 
with whatever you wanted from their scraps
and goods. I got several pieces of upholstery 
fabric, Vintage buttons, ribbon, Vintage 
charms/jewelry and more. Was a wonderful 
bargain for the $2.

Used Spellbinders die cut.

Used Art Nouveau Cricut cartridge for 
Vase image. Used Kraft cardstock, 
embossed with Cuttlebug D'vine Swirl 
and Ranger Gold Paint Dabber on it. 
Used vellum for a 2nd Vase image with 
hand calligraphy of sentiment:
It all looks Greek to me!

Used foam dimensions to pop up images.

Added some gems for bling & ribbon.

PG-13 Rated Sassy Birthday Card

This post is rated PG-13.

Created this Sassy birthday card using 
Naughty Nurse digi from Stitchy Bear. 

My hubby said he wanted a funny 
birthday card for his brother's
birthday. He liked the digi and made
his mind up about the sentiment.
First time for me using 3 different
stamp sets at once. See inside 
stamping of card below.

I thought the sentiment with the word 
'cure' was a funny combo with the digi 
image. I chose the balloon paper to be 
funny since the nurse had a needle shot 
and I imagined the balloons popping.

I used Crayola pencil colors. A light
brown created the flesh color. Not bad,
I thought. Used brown for the hair color.
Used red for the other parts I colored.
Did not color the image too much since 
I did not know what other colors to use. 
Figured white was suitable for the nurse 
uniform.


















Inside of card:



















Crayola colored pencils:
light brown - flesh color
brown - hair color

DigiImageCard using PaperPiecing Technique and Guest Design for Made Especially 4 You

Created this card using 
Paper Piecing Technique 
for my Guest Design spot at 
Made Especially For You.

The Cutting Cafe provided the
digi image of girl holding a
balloon.


Printed the girl digi image on
several pieces of cardstock and
cut out and attached the pieces
to the base. Used bright blue for
base of girl image to be like sky.
I do not have a flesh color pencil 
color or marker so I used the idea 
of printing onto flesh color paper
and cutting out and attaching over
the previous image.

The sketch to be used is:

I Love Ewe Easter or Mother's Day or Love Card













Created this cute 'I Love Ewe' Card that can be for
Easter or Mother's Day or any Love occasion. Used
digi I selected from Paper Crafting World Cooking
With Cricut.

Stamped the Basic Grey flower center.

Added the ribbon ruffling it along the red double-
sided tape.

Tried a couple different coloring & glittering attempts.
Learned that pencil color is best done first before any
glitter is added. Used Crayola pencil color Sky Blue for
sky & Green for grass & leaf stems. Used a black Sharpie
for Lamb's hooves. Used pink glitter for Lamb's inside ear.
Used white glitter on all of the Lamb except for face. Used
purple glitter on edges of flowers & in center of stamped
flower. Used green glitter for leaves.
