Happy Friday My Sweet Friends I am so ready for the weekend - what about you?? Today I am sharing a card I made using this adorable new image from artist Sandra Caldwell called: "Pigeons and Petals." I absolutely love this image and decided to have some extra fun with it.  Truth be told I was on a second do-over (I messed up my coloring) when it occurred to me to use my stencils on the birds.  I have been having this addiction with my stencils lately and using them on these birds was perfect.  I used Copics to color as well as add ink with the stencils.   Here are the links: BabyCakes Digi's and Designs on Etsy Pigeons and Petals Digital Image Sandra Caldwell Stamp Fans on Facebook I hope you have a fabulous weekend!!!

Hello My Sweet Friends I have another card to share with you today.  I have used this amazing image from artist Annabel Haines owner of Knitty Kitty Designs.  This is Annabel's newest image and our DT had so much fun creating different projects using this image.  As you can see by mine below I did some different ideas on this one.  For some reason I wanted to use my white gel pen and added a few white dots here and there on the card.   Hours later I added more and more and more until I felt I had enough but then thought it looked like snow.  I was laughing so hard but I actually like it.  I love these adorable "Purr"maid images.  Here's the link to her Etsy Shop: Purrmaids And here's the link to her Facebook Group  Knitty Kitty Digi's We hope you will stop on over and check out the creations by her Design Team.  They are all fabulous.
