Star Light, Star Bright...

Happy Friday!  Tomorrow is the first day of summer!!  The weather around here has certainly heated up in preparation!

This week I truly enjoyed coloring this project.
There is a re-release today of some beautiful art and poems that coordinate with them.

I have used "Under the Stars":
The images were printed on Bristol paper and colored with Copic markers.

Here is a view a bit closer :

Good Shoes

Today is going to be an interesting Friday!  Friday the 13th with a full moon!

If I were superstitious I would just hide in my studio and stamp...  I may just do that anyway! 

Have you seen the amazing images Tammy from A Day For Daisies has created for the June Club Kit!   It is all about good shoes!


Today I am using "Favorite Knee Highs" from A Day for Daisies:

Our challenge (#98) this week was to use faux stitching.  I used a bit of faux stitching and a bit of real stitching.

You can see them all the images at the A Day for Daisies Store. 
For some more fabulous ideas, check out what my fellow design team members have created

Thank you, Teacher!

Today is the last day of school for my youngest child.

This year she has been blessed with such talented and caring teachers!
I wanted to take the time to let them know how much I appreciated the care they have given to the education of my child.

I found this image at Tiddly Inks: teacher.
The image was colored with Copic markers.

The globe is accented with a little dab of Stickles (glitter glue).
When it was dry I covered the globe and the apple with some gloss medium.

I made two of these and they went with my daughter to school, today!

Happy Bird-Day!

This image from Hambo Stamps, Bird Pants, just cracks me UP!:
I have layered the image.


  • The far away foot and the tail are the base image.  
  • The body and is the next layer that you can see.  
  • The wing (half attached to the 2nd layer and half "popped" out), hat and balloon are 3 layers high. 

The image was colored with Shinhan and Copic markers.
