Small World

Wow - getting ready for this week's challenge, tutorial and blog hop has been quite the adventure.  It has been a lot of fun and I am not a big fan of the learning curve but I am loving it all.  I wish I could create with my feet too instead of just my hands!!  Creates quite the visual image doesn't it??

For today's post I wanted to create something for another challenge (plus I needed to make a quick gift for a sweet little girl.  I stumbled across another blog called Stampin' Sisters in Christ and it was a wonderful blog to visit (and join).  So many beautiful creations and devotionals and its been an answer to a prayer.  This weeks challenge  #143 at SSIC is to create something that shows movement.  And so I altered this wall hook with this sweet little girl on the swing reaching out to the little bird.  Makes me smile and I hope it makes you smile too. Ironically the image I used is from one of my favorite online digital stamp stores  - The Paper Shelter and they are also the sponsor for this  challenge.  There are so many adorable digital stamps and digital papers - please consider checking them out.  I did not color this particular image - it was already pre-colored when I purchased it (several of their digital images come that way).  I needed a quick gift for a little girl and this came in handy.  I am looking forward to coloring her myself  this weekend. The website is - www.thepapershelter.com

Small world isn't it??

I hope you will continue participating in our Tuesday Alchemy Blog and tell all your friends to join us and check out the Stampin' Sisters in Christ blog as well.  Have a blessed day!

With hugs and smiles,

Laine

Pretty in Pink

Happy Happy Saturday My Dear Sweet Friends I've got my Fitztown DT hat on today and I am sharing an altered small composition I made using one of the gorgeous rose images from Fitztown . Here's how I make my altered composition books whether they are the large or small ones. I used a small file and lightly sanded the front & back of the book until all the shine is gone.  I added the cardstock to the front and back using glue. I used my bone folder to make sure the cardstock was adhered well. I used Copics to color the roses. Fussy cut out the roses and attached to the front of the composition book with glue. Used my bone folder to make sure the image was adhered well. Added a strand of faux pearls to the left side. This really is a quick and easy project.  I actually like to make several ahead of time to either give as RAK's or gifts to family, friends or co-workers. Thanks for stopping by and I always appreciate your feedback and comments....
