Weekly inspiration from Sylvia, Conie Fong's "Angel of Christmas Stars" and Ching-Chou Kuik's "Holly Fairy".

Hi everyone!

Sylvia here...

Today I want to share a lovely image from

Conie Fong "Angel of Christmas Stars".

Christmas is here...

It's like a little magic, don't you think?

This gorgeous stamp is availble at:

Sweet Pea Rubber Stamp

and also as a digi:

Sweet Pea Digi Stamp

I stamped this image with my favorite stampingink

Archival Potting Soil.

I love the darkbrown, it is more softer than the black ink.

Ofcourse I colored this beautiful Angel with my distresspads.

I added some glossy accents on the looking glass

(don't know the english word for it... oh hey.. you know what I mean).

The base of this card is Kraft.

The designpaper is from Bo Bunny.

I added a bow with a little button from our local store.

This cute Fairy is from the artist Ching-Chou Kuik

and is called "Holly Fairy". 

I love the way she looks at you...

She is availble as a rubber stamp at:

Sweet Pea Rubber Stamp

and as a digi:

Sweet Pea Digi Stamp

I colored my Holly Fairy in with the distresspads (ofcourse).

I added glossy accents on the berries.. it's a shame you

don't see them so good on this picture.

The base card is made from Kraft and green and red cardstock.

The lace and the ribbon I had in my own stash... it was waiting

for this card to make!

The button I bought at a local store.

I wish you a Fairy Merry Christmas!

Where We Met

OMG I cannot believe I forgot to set this post up :( So sorry it has been so crazy trying to get everything ready for the holidays by myself! I shared this this past friday on my blog and I am so sorry I forgot to post it here!

So today I am sharing a card using Ching Chou Kuik's image Where We Met. I love this as it reminds me of where I live. We have deer everywhere and the snowy scene is so pretty. Well we barely got snow this year but it is better than summer storms that didn't get the memo it was winter.

Here you can see a little glitter for snow. I also used some Creative Inspiration Paints on the antlers just for a smidge of shimmer. 

Thanks so much for stopping by for some inspiration!

Butterfly Love

Here's a stunning image from artist Karen Middleton called Butterfly Love .  This gorgeous image is available in digi as well as rubber stamp format. I colored her up and used some gorgeous papers from DCWV and Bazzill to match along with some gorgeous lace from Istanbul.  She just looks so lost in thought.  What a delightful image.

Here's a closeup of the actual stamped image, this artist has lots of beautiful head shots of ladies.

Be sure and drop by the Sweet Pea store to see her lovely stamps and check out the amazing sale that is going on while you are there.

Cheers, Holley

Seahorse by Ching Chou Kuik

Hello everyone,  today I have created a card with an image by Ching Chou Kuik called seahorse.
I used copics and a great spellbinders embossing folder called shells.  I painted it with a solution of mandarin perfect pearls and water.  I did this card in copic class and every student loved the image and said it was so fun to color.  I agree 100%.

This image comes in rubber and digi format.  Here isa close up.

Thank you so much, I wish you all a wonderful week.

Love, Viola
