Fairie Friends

This is one of the new images by Karen Middleton called Fairie Friends. Every time I look at it I think of the saying 'a little bird told me'.  The sheet has this and three other adorable images.  I am so glad I don't have to pick only one, because I am not certain I could!

Connie-Lily Of The Valley

This lovely  Sweet Pea Stamps  image is by artist Rachel Anderson 
from Plate #95 and is titled
"Lily Of The Valley"
I colored her with Copic markers and put some glitz
on her wings and the drop of water with a clear
Gelly Roll glitter pen by Sakura.
The saying was cut off a paper from
my stash and everything
was layered with black text paper.
Some black pearls and black sheer ribbon
finished it off.

Thanks for stopping by!

Weekend Grab Bag Winner---

------Alnita B! Congratulations, along with your order you will receive a 5 count grab bag!

Teddy Bears

Artist Elaine Cox just created some wonderful images of teddy bears which I love! I had to get this sheet (Plate #102). There's four adorable sets of Teddy bears with some cute sayings to go with them. They are super cute. I colored my image using copic markers and mounted it on a dark red cardstock to make it pop off the card. I really wanted to use this adorable red star to match the paper, so I added a great saying from Plate #101 that says "I am like a falling star who has finally found her place next to another in a lovely constellation where we will sparkle in the heavens forever. Amy Tan" The I used some bling that would be like the line of light you would see from a falling star.

I can't wait to use the other Teddy Bear stamps and share cards of them with you! I currently have a blog candy contest running, it started on Feb 14th (CLICK HERE), be sure to sign up as the best prize is a wonderful set of beautiful stamps from Sweet Pea Stamps!! WOO HOO!!

Cheers all, Holley

Snow Fae

Today I want to show you a card I created with Snow Fae, one of the fabulous and magical stamps of the Rachel Andersons Collection. You can find it on plate 95. It comes together with three other lovely designs, or is available as single stamp as well.

This lovely fairy goes very well with the very cold and icy weather we have over here. We haven't see the sun since days, but this sweet Snow Fae haves such a warm and light charisma, although surrounded by cold snow.



supplies I used;

Distress Ink on 300 gram watercolor paper
cardstock and iridescent white paper by Artoz (local company)
designer paper by Rico Design
Spellbinders
punch by Martha Stewart
paper flowers by Wild Orchid Crafts and Prima
pins by Whiff of Joy
ribbon, lace and beads from my stash
The sentiment is cut out of a sheet of designer paper

Don't miss to go over the Sweet Pea Stamps to see all the great new images, you'll love them!
Have a wonderful day everyone. And thank you for your visit!

Hugs, Karina

Dramatic Jewels


I really tried something new with this project. I'd never done a black background like this before. I was after a dramatic look and am really pleased with how this turned out! I colored the background with my black Copic then topped it with the Glossy Accents to give it the dimension and shine. I love how it makes the beautiful image just jump!
