Happy Sunday & Welcome to our 32nd lovely-hAnglar-only challenge ! Today we have a color challenge for you: purple/violet & cream . And this is what I came up with: I started on making my Christmas cards and I thought this cute girl would look great in purple & cream. I colored her using my Copics. She was stamped onto Make it Color card stock from Make it Crafty. This was my first time using the MiC card stock and I have to admit it's GREAT!!! I heard everyone talking about this great card stock and wanted to try it out as well. A dear friend of mine sent me some samples so I could try before buying it! (Thanks again so much :-))) ) I'll definitely will buy some of it. What's the best is the 'no bleending' no matter how many layers you put on! Blending is very smooth as well! I can say it is in my Top 3 for Copic coloring card stock! Thanks for stopping by and don't forget to join in this fun challenge over at the lovely-hAn...

Hello & Happy Sunday to All of You! Vacation is the theme of our new lovely-hAnglar-only challenge , starting today! Oh boy...this was quite a challenge for me. I couldn't find a matching stamp in my stash of hAnglars so I had to wing it a bit. I picked this cute running girl and decided she is going on a fitness vacation, how about that? (for larger view click on the photos) This time I colored with distress inks for a change. Colors used are: skin - tattered rose, tea dye, vintage photo; hair - antique linen, vintage photo, walnut stain; cloth - wild honey, spiced marmalade, bundled sage, pine needles and walnut stain to shade. To color her sneakers I used twinkling H2O's. DP is from MME Stella & Rose collection 'Mabel'. Sentiment is from Whimsy's Vintage Travel Collection . Dies and punches used: EK Success, Magnolia, Marianne Design. Flowers are from Prima, Kaisercraft, Whimsy. Other embellishments used: ribbon, buttons, lace, S...

Happy Sunday Stamping Friends! Today starts a new fortnightly lovely-hAnglar-only challenge with the theme 'Embossing'. No matter if you prefer heat embossing, embossing with folders and your die cutting machines or love to emboss using stencils and a hand embossing tool. We want to see some embossing on you projects. I did something different today. I used this sweet hAnglar girl, stamped it with pink pigment ink and heat embossed using 2 different embossing powders. I used a pink - was a little too pink for my liking - and mixed it with a burgundy colored embossing powder. I like the sprinkled look it has now. And I decided not to color the image for a change. I wanted the embossing to stand out. I also did some dry embossing using a Cuttlebug folder. DP is from Basic Grey, sentiment from Whimsy and all other embellies from my stash. Please visit my fellow DT sisters blogs for their embossing creations and I hope to see you over at our lovely-hAnglar-o...

Happy Sunday Everyone! Over at our lovely-hAnglar-only challenge blog is a new challenge starting today! This fortnights theme is a color challenge: Blue - Brown - Cream For my challenge creation I made a corner bookmark with an Origami flower dangle. It is called a Kusudama flower. When browsing the web a few weeks ago I saw a bookmark with a flower like that attached and just loved the idea and wanted to try it. Unfortunately I don't know anymore where it was. This was actually my first try with Origami at all. So please be lenient with me as it is not perfect at all. But I had so much fun folding and assembling it. I'm pretty sure I like to try some more Origami folding in the future! I colored the image using Copics and airbrushed around it. The DP is a digital paper from Nitwitt Designs. I colored the image using Copics and airbrushed around it. Color used are E11, E01, E00 & E000 for skin -  Blues: B21, B24, B28 - Brown/Hair: E31, E34, E39 - Cr...
