A Time for Season's

Hi, all you Sweet Pea fans.  Today I have a few cards to share with you.  I have busy the past couple of weeks remodeling my bathroom and I am almost done.  I just need to pick up a few more things to finish it off.  But the hard part is done, which was putting in a new main floor and vinyl tiles.


Anyway onto my creations this week. I took all these pictures outside so the colors are a little off.

This first one I made a Christmas card using "Wistful Fairy" by Teresa Sherman, Sheet #1 Plate # 168.  I used some Webster's Pages 6x6 die cut sheet, Lace ribbon, K&Company Border strip, Recollections red flower, the other flowers I purchased at Hobby Lobby in the Wedding Department. I also added a silver  and white cake Dollie, Martha Stewart Brand punch and some Christmas buttons.

This one is by Anna Marine, called "Paint My World Black.  This image is from Sheet #1 Plate # 160 and this image is on sale now over at the Sweet Pea Store HERE.

This image is another one by Anna Marine and she is called "Breathe of Autumn".  You can buy her as a single or on Sheet #3, Plate #170.

I added some twigs to this card and I couldn't find my branch die.  I think the real twigs look even better.

I am so glad you stopped by today and I hope if you haven't bought any of these stamps you run over and get some as they are SOOOOOO much fun to color.

Hugs:)

Lisa Victoria's sheet 12 Monster Tea Party

I LOVE this image and let me just tell you how fun it was to work with! When I see the image... I feel like I am the little girl and the "monsters" are named Ava, Jacob and Daddy...(LOL).I stamped the image onto water color paper with jet black stazon and colored it in using Derwent colored pencils. The paper that I used had the PARTY banner already on it... so I just cut it out and added it onto the string for the uber trendy banner look!  This was a wonderful image to color and I love the way this turned out... and i hope that you do too!Thanks for stopping in!
