By LORi Designs Inspiration

Hello to all of you!  It's been a while since I last posted.  I've been so busy getting ready for Christmas and enjoying my new grandbaby that I've kind of let the old blog gather some cobwebs lol!  But I'm back today to share a card using a fun Christmas image from the By LORi Designs Digi Shop.

This sweet girl is Candy Cane Jane and I've colored her with copics and colored pencils.  I used some fun papers from My Mind's Eye and a snowflake with a button and some twine.  Be sure to check out the By LORi Designs Blog to see what the rest of the team is sharing today.

Thank you so much for stopping by.  I hope you and your loved ones have a wonderful Christmas.

Hugs, Anita

Gingerbread Cookies

Hello sweet friends!  I'm sharing a Christmas card today using one of my favorite Sugar Nellie stamps from last year's release.

This little cutie is Gingerbread Cookies and she's available over in the Funky Kits shop.  I colored her with copics and then added some extra shading with my colored pencils.  I used Glamour Dust on the star and snow-covered ground.  I wanted to focus on the image itself so I kept my design very clean and simple.  I hope you find some time to get inky today!

Thank you so much for stopping by.

Guest Designer at Color Me Creative Classroom Challenge

Happy Saturday to all of you!  I was invited to be a Guest Designer over on the CMC Copic Challenge Group and their theme for this challenge is anything "Holiday themed".

I chose to use one of Sylvia's newer releases Winter Friends.  I love Sylvia's designs and knew I wanted to use this one for a Christmas card.  I colored the image with copics and colored pencils and used Glamour Dust and a pearl pen for some sparkle.  The sentiment is from an older Papertrey Ink stamp set - it's one of my favorite Christmas sentiment sets.  Be sure to stop by the CMC Copic Challenge to find all the details on their challenge!  

Thank you so much for stopping by.  I hope you have a wonderful weekend!

Happy Thursday sweet friends!  Today I'm sharing another Christmas card.  If you know me then you know that I absolutely LOVE making Christmas cards!

 

This adorable little fairy is Sugar Nellie's Hey Little Birdie and she's from the latest Return To Winter Wonderland release.  Doesn't she have such a beautiful little face?  I colored her with copics and then added some additional shading with colored pencils.  I used some Glamour Dust on her wings.  The sentiment is from PTI and the snowflakes are from an Impression Obsession die.  You can find this sweet fairy and all her friends at Funky Kits.

The Story Teller

Happy Thursday dear friends!  Well, this week is almost over and the weekend will be here before we know it.  This has been a rough week so I will be so glad to see the weekend :)  OK, enough complaining from me, right?  I have a new Sugar Nellie card to share and I hope she puts a smile on your face!

This sweet image is The Story Teller ... isn't she precious?  I have colored her with copics and colored pencils and used lots of Glamour Dust on her fairy wings.  The paper is by Fancy Pants and I love the colors in it.  I added a bow and a few pearls to finish off my card.  You can find this adorable stamp and lots of others over at Funky Kits so be sure to stop by and check them out.

Winter Wonders Princess

Good morning everyone!  I have a sweet little Christmas card to share with you today.

This little cutie is Princess and she is from our latest Winter Wonders collection over at Funky Kits.  I colored her with copics and colored pencils and added some Glamour Dust to her crown, flower, and shoes.  I finished this clean and simple card with a bow and some pearls.  I'm hoping the ribbon won't be too bulky as this card will be going through the mail.  The sentiment is from one of my favorite Christmas stamp sets by Papertrey Ink. 

Thank you so much for stopping by.  Have a wonderful day!

Furry Friends' Holidays

Happy Thursday everyone!  The weekend is just around the corner ... and so is Christmas!  So I thought I'd get another Christmas card made to add to my stash. 

This adorable image is Furry Friends and you can find it over at Funky Kits.  This stamp was one of the first Sugar Nellie stamps I ever bought.  I loved it the first time I saw it and I still love it!  I colored these friends with copics and colored pencils and used Glamour Dust on the snow-covered ground and her outfit.  I added some pearl dots with my Pearl Pen and used some of my new Impression Obsession dies to cut out the snowflakes and trees.  The paper is some older BoBunny I had in my stash and the sentiment is by PTI.

For now, we are excited to introduce you to TGF's latest contest ...

How FUN is this going to be?  We know there are a lot of you creative peeps out there who do amazing things with our line of stamps, and sometimes you love to kick it up a notch or two by switching heads, bodies, clothes, etc.  Well, with Halloween coming up, we thought it was the perfect time for a contest so here's your chance to do it to WIN a prize!

Holly

I have had this sweet digi image printed and patiently sitting on my desk forever and I finally decided it was time to give her some pretty colors :)

This sweet fairy is Holly and she's one of Sylvia Zet's adorable images that you can find in her Wee Stamps Store.  If you're not familiar with Sylvia's images, be sure to visit her shop ... I promise you won't be disappointed :)  Anyway, I colored this cutie with copics and colored pencils and used lots of Glamour Dust on her earmuffs, the snowflake, and the snow on the branch.  I applied some Glossy Accents to the berries and jinglebell, and then added Liquid Pearl dots all around the image.  I've added pearls to the centers of the snowflakes and then added some ribbon with a bow.  I'm so glad I finally found some time to color this sweet little image!

Thank you so much for stopping by.  I hope you have a wonderful weekend!

Hello sweet friends.  For those of you in the States, I hope you had a fabulous holiday!  We went to a cook-out with lots of yummy food and also went to see our local fireworks.  Even though we live in a tiny little town, thanks to lots of local businesses donating $$$ we have an amazing fireworks display each year :)  So anyway, we have a new Farm Fresh Friday challenge starting over on the Greeting Farm Blog today.  Our lovely Rosie chose our theme this week and she wants to see "red, white & blue with ribbon". 

I used this adorable Do Si Do Anya on my card.  Of course you don't have to make a "patriotic" card ... just be sure to use the colors Rosie is requesting :)   I've colored this sweetie with copics and colored pencils.  I used my Doodlebug Designs paper and cut circles with my nestabilities, and cut some stars using my star die.  I added some ribbon and tied on a little tag to finish my card.  Please be sure to stop by the Greeting Farm Blog to see what the rest of the DT is sharing.  I hope you play along with us this week because of course there's a chance to win some yummy rubber! 

Thanks for stopping by.
