And used some stickles to color Marina's tail (that's the name of the digi) and some liquid pearl to create her bracelet.  The rest is colored with copics.  Here's a closer look to her: So what do you think?  Did I do a good job?  She was sooooo much fun to color!  Just love her.

I really wanted to do the challenge at Kraftin Kimmie.  And this week it was a really tough one!  It required to do one layer and since it's at Kraftin Kimmie it needs to be one of their images.... so I thought about it a lot... and Hooray, I had the perfect stamp for this!  When they came out with Bug buddies, I commented on the blog hop and won one of their wonderful sets. Here's my 1st card with it: And as I'm finishing this card off...

I won some time ago at  The crafts meow shop  a great set of stamps.  I had not used it yet.  Today as I was doing a card... I ended up with a great window shape.  And decided to use it to make a simple little card.  The saying from the Crafts meow set Sew lovely was wonderful with it. You will have to wait in upcoming weeks to see where the other squares went ;) I just love using the stuff I have!   I'm entering this one in the following challenges: Fab n funky challenges  - buttons and Bows Crafty creations challenges  - Frame it The poodles parlour  - anything goes Hope you like ;) Have a wonderful night if I'm not back.  Please don't forget to leave me a comment!  I just LOVE getting comments.  Big special hello to my followers!

Thank you teacher

Today I needed to prepare a thank you card for one of my boys' teacher.  She will be leaving on maternity leave at the end of the week.   To make this card I used my CM oval and the tearing tool.  I also used a page from a book that I distressed with Vintage photo ranger distress inks.  My stamp was Cool Edwin from Magnolia and I colored him with my copics.  I really {heart} that stamp to make my thank you cards for the boys because I just think it really looks like them. I followed this great sketch: I'm entering in the following challenges: Rubys rainbow  - sketch Southern girls challenge  - about the boys Divas by design challenge  - one for the boys Totally papercrafts  - no pesky girls allowed Mad for markers challenges  - masculine colors Inky impressions challenges  - thank you card (mine is said in French but it's thank you ;) ) All sorts challenge  - for a man or boy (mine is made for my boy to give to his teacher... so was for a boy ;) )
