Tera presents 'Blue Star Angel' by Karen Middleton

        Hallo,
             Just popping in to show you this cute box I made using Karen Middleton's 'Blue Star Angel'
     I colored her with prismacolor and polychrome pencils and edged the panel with copper metallic
     pen.
             I covered the box in pretty papers that matched my image and then started collecting pretties from my stash to decorate her with. First an old drawer pull for the handle (drilled a little hole with my small electric hand drill that I keep in my craft room so I could use a screw to hold it on - much more sturdy than glue.)
             Then I started decorating with flowers and rhinestones and stickers - almost got a bit carried away....
               The inside of the box has more pretty paper on the inside lid and the bottom is lined with felt. Last but not least the little feet are little wood pieces that I colored with the copper metallic pen and glued on.
   All for today - off to my day job :)
      Take Care

Tera presents 'Blue Star Angel' by Karen Middleton

Hallo,
  Making decorative boxes is one of my very favorite things and I have another one to show you today. I used Karen Middleton's 'Blue Star Angel' and colored her with prismacolor and polychrome pencils.
  I used matching pretty papers to decorate the box and then added all kinds of pretties. I used an old drawer pull for the lid handle, wooden pieces painted metallic gold for the feet and some pretty flowers and corner pieces too.
  The inside bottom of the box is lined with felt.
  I just love this sweet image - so fun to color!!!
     All for today - Take Care

Cold

This beautiful winter image comes from Sweet Pea artist Marlon Teunissen and is called Cold.  She's available as a rubber stamp as well as a digital image.   I am using a shimmery flocked paper in the background with a combination of blue/brown paper for winter theme.  Here's the sentiment I added "Live in a way to make happy memories."  I love how she looks so lost in thought.  Also note that she definitely has some steampunk theme given her hat jewel and coat embellishments.

Here's a closeup of the image itself

Here's a sweet bonus project I did, a quick and cute birthday card for my niece Desi, who turns 18 today!  I am using one of the Veritcal Sentiment stamps from Sweet Pea stamps and an adorable angel stamp from artist Karen Middleton. This gorgeous angel is called Blue Star Angel. She was just perfect for my niece.

 

I hope you liked these sweet CAS (Clean and Simple) cards today!
