Thank you Annie


Annie taught me a whole new way to make socks - so I made her this card. Image is reversed because I used my computer camera to take the picture. It says, " So much yarn, So little time."
Isn't that the truth!

Punchy Rosebud ... and Wood


Found 2 tutorials online that were really fun. ... punchy rosebuds and how to make wood with copic markers.

I now have about 10 ATC sized wood grain pieces, the first few are not as good as the last ones.

My card is reversed because my scanner doesn't work too well on copics and my camera battery is dead. So I used the camera on my computer which reverses everything.

Hetty's Velveteen Rabbit



Hetty used a rabbit to showcase the beautiful bracelets she makes --- you can go see them here. I was fascinated with the bunny ... and made this card:) It is for the design team challenge over at Firecracker - to use the letters in the word S P R I N G ... well, I have used my Scissors--Photo --Rabbit --Ink--New digi image-- Greeting

Image is reversed because my scanner is going bonkers with colors so I used the camera in my computer to take the photo.

Hetty's Parrots! And a sketch






Hetty has a bird feeder and her visitors are parrots. And no, she doesn't live in the sahara, she lives in the snowy Netherlands! I love doing the splitcoast sketch challenges and this was a perfect combination! Unfortunately my scanner turned a perfectly green parrot blue ... so imagine the photo on the card matching the photo of the bird; which it does, minus the flip, and you can imagine how my card looks in real life.
You can visit Hetty for some great card ideas ... and more photos of the parrots outside her window. Click here.
