My favourite image for sure is the cat and mouse which I called 'side by side' and is from the Whimsical set of Umbrella Users. Here

This little cutie is also from the  Whimsical set of Umbrella Users...

I named this topper 'And let it fly away'..

This fellow riding on the turtle is just plain fun.. The little turtle I want to pick up and hold lol  I called this one 'down to the river'..

Though this digital image is called I felt a drop Here I wanted him to be out walking 

and 'found himself in a strange land' trying to get the bird to land on his hand lol..

Loved colouring his highness in.. 

'Singing in The Rain' here and how much fun he is having doing it.. 'Upon a Shore' is where he is walking..

To Fly is what the wind is trying to make this little guy do lol. He is also from 

the Whimsical set of Umbrella Users. Here

Pierrots - Rick St Dennis, She Was Wishing..

Hi all, 

Well this month Rick St Dennis has created a mix of interesting images called Pierrots. 

You can purchase the images HERE
And join Rick's facebook friends page HERE

I decided I would challenge myself with these images to create assorted cards using the same paper and minimal embellishments.

TeePee Fold Card

Cut three pieces of white cardstock at 10 cm x 10 cm, emboss them and score them all diagonal.
Cut two pieces of blue cardstock at 9 1/2 cm x 9 1/2 cm, stamp them with Distress ink -Vintage Photo and cut them on the diagonal. Adhere as shown..

Place two of the squares together as shown and place a piece of double sided tape down the middle..

Adhere the third square as shown in the photo..

Cut one piece of blue cardstock at 3 1/2 cm x 3 1/2 cm, cut on the diagonal and adhere as well.

Cut two pieces of patterned paper at 9 cm x 9 cm and one piece at 3 cm x 3 cm.

Cut all of the pieces on the diagonal and adhere to the blue mats.. (Be careful of where the patterns are when cutting the patterned paper).. 

Place a Velcro dot (both pieces) on the outside back of the card and close it. That way it will be matched evenly.

The card opened after it has been decorated..

The closed card..

One side of the card with this cute image and hearts..

I added a heart bunting from La La Land as I felt it needed something else..

The back of the card.. I coloured her eyes wrong and was going to throw it out but decided to keep it as I thought it gave her a sinister look lol

Just how cute is this image..

She Was Wishing of day's gone by..

The materials I used to create the four cards.. 

Four cards together that I created with these glorious images..

I hope I have inspired you

to create glorious things.
