A Very Tiddly Christmas

Hey y'all!  I've got a few new cards to share with you.  =D

This I created using the adorable BahHuggaBuggs from the Tiddly Inks basement. Image colored with Copics, papers from Stampin' Up, snowflake punch from Stampin' Up.

This next card is with a brand new stamp (to me anyway)....Irish Christmas Fae by Crafts and Me.  Oooh, I just love this image!

Isn't she just gorgeous?!?  You know how I love everything Irish.  =D Image colored with Copics, and a Spica marker for the wings.  The papers are from DCWV.  The snowflake border is a border punch by Martha Stewart.

Challenges:

Crafts and Me: Simples

Mami Doodles: Fairy Tales are Real

Priscilla Styles:  Midnight Madness Sketch 130

One last card for this post...not Christmas, though.  As some of you know, the newest installment of the Twilight Saga movies was released in the US a couple of days ago.  I do love the books and movies...but I always seem to be a fan of the bad guys.  What can I say?  Gotta love James and Victoria.  =D  Therefore, I chose to use Pixie Dust Studio's Victoria for their newest challenge: Twilight Inspired Red, Black and White/Silver....add Sparkle!

Victoria was colored with Copics and a silver marker.  Skin was covered with Stickles.  (Vampires glitter, you know.  LOL) The papers are from DCWV's Immortal Love paper collection.  Love Bites sticker is from Marah Johnson's Breathless collection, which was inspired by the Twilight movies.  Bats, ribbon and gems are from my stash.

Whew!  Hope you enjoyed my cards today!  I should have a couple more coming up shortly.  =D

A DT Call

There is a DT Call going on over at the Critter Sketch Challenge blog!  

Woo hoo! You know how much I love sketches!  =D  When I saw the DT Call, I just knew I had to apply.  On top of the DT Call, the Critters are having a wedding challenge, so I thought I would combine them.  I hope that's ok!!

I used a sketch provided by the Critters.  (I'd show you...but I think to see it you need to apply to the DT call!)  The image is from one of my favorite digi stores...you guessed it!  Tiddly Inks!  I just love this little couple.  It reminds me a lot of the Precious Moments statuettes everyone used to collect when I was a kid.  I colored the couple using Copics, then covered the veil with crystal Stickles.  I used a Spellbinders die for the background, edged with chalk ink in chestnut roan, and hand stitched to the background.  (I'm having so much fun with my stitching tools!!)  The background I embossed with a Stampin' Up folder...I just love this vintage wallpaper look.  The paper was actually a little bit bigger than the folder, so I had to emboss it twice.  Luckily I was able to line up the embossing on the sides.  The ribbon in the corners and the pearls are from Michael's Craft Stores, and the flowers are from a blog candy I won a few months back.

Well, thanks so much for stopping by!!  I'll be working on a number of things this weekend, so I'll be seeing you soon!  =D
