Happy Wednesday

Hello there,

I thought this AI stamp was perfect for my husband and grandson. He always calls him little man. Yes the stamp is from Art Impressions called "Little Man". Simply adorable and easy to color.

I colored him with Copic Markers E000,  E01, R000, R01 and R20. I paper pieced his diaper and cap. I used a spellbinders die, Maja paper and a Prima tag. To embellish my design I used floss, ribbon and a turtle charm.

Don't forget our 7th day of Christmas is 15% off your order at 7 Kids College Fund. And yes, please enter our challenge.....

Here is what my "Little Man" looks like....

Happy Thanksgiving

Today I would like to share my Christmas canvas inspired by a very special girl. I used a Prima watercolor canvas then stenciled with Prima modeling paste. The stencils are from Tim Holtz Set #19 mini layered set. I absolutely love these.

After the modeling paste dried I used Prima Memory Hardware Powder - Antoinette Pink, French Sage, Parisian Rosewood, Black, Clay, Brown. The chipboard is from Wycinanka Merry Christmas that I painted the sentiment with Prima Art Alchemy Metalique Royal Red Paint. On the edges of my canvas I used my distressing tool on plaid Christmas paper then I inked the edges with Tim Holtz Tea Dye distress ink. The final touch was Aleene's True Snow. To achieve the effect I used a sponge and dab on the snow until I was happy with the coverage.

A very simple gift for anyone!
