Hallo,
A sweet little card today that I made up for a friend of mine!!!
I used Norma J Burnell's "My Deep Love" - from Sweet Pea Stamps of course - and colored her with prismacolor pencils.
This image is available both as a rubber stamp and a digital image.
I layered her to a die cut using silver metallic paper and cut the tag from the same piece.
Then I added all kinds of fun stuff - seed beads as a frame and an accent on the tag, 2 small metal charms, and some pretty flowers in matchy matchy colors.
All for today - Take Care
Tera

My Deep Love - Tera

I am about to adventure into the life of Retirement and am looking forward to significantly more time in the studio, playing with my Grandkids and traveling now and then with the hubby. I have spent 41 years as an RN - mostly in Critical Care. I picked up painting and more formal art again when my kids went from High School into college. I have always done some form of art, even in the busy years of Career, Mom, Military wife - mostly in the crafty forms(sewing, rubber stamping, its a long list...) Now I mainly paint with encaustic wax. Encaustic is an ancient art form from Greece and Egypt that uses beeswax, natural tree resin and pigments. Encaustic is painted while melted in thin layers and every layer is fused to those below with heat( I mostly use a torch). True to my 'normal' self I have 3 or 4 other hobbies that keep me busy too , and you will be seeing(and have been) those here too.

Tera's 'My Deep Love' by Norma Burnell
Hallo,
My project for today is an altered sketch journal.
I am really loving the Fairy Tangles images from Norma Burnell and today I used 'My Deep Love' - She is available both as a digi and in rubber form.
I colored her with prismacolor pencils and blended the background a bit with OMS (odorless mineral spirits).
I cut her out with a Spellbinders die and layered her to some pretty handmade paper from my stash and layered that to the cover of a sketch journal.
Then I went a bit wild with the beads :) - I used blue and turquoise seed beads to outline the main image and some of the swirls on the paper.
I edged the cover with gold metallic pen and then I used a salmon colored viva décor pearl pen to make the pearls - they matchy matchy the ones in her hair perfectly :) The ones in her hair are just colored in and then I added some stickles glitter to them and the seashell.
All for today - back to the craft room for me :) - happiness!!

My Deep Love
Hello Suzanne here with a gorgeous image by Norma J Burnell.
My Deep Love which is available in rubber and digi format
I have coloured with Copics, glitter pens and gel pens. There is so much scope for colouring this amazing image, just think of the possibilities.
The cardstock is by Bazzill and the paper Bella. Added some Frantage, string, shells and an ornate corner, along with a tiny bottle and ribbon from my stash. Oh I almost forgot to mention the handmade paper layer.
Thanks for popping by.
Hugs Suzanne
