Hello - It has been awhile since I did any crafting.  I lost my mojo for awhile. LOL     This card is for a Bugaboo Stamp challenge that I am entering.  The image was colored with copics then stickles were used on the icing and his hat.  The candles are from EKSuccess punch.  When I first bought this punch I wasn't sure how often I would use it, but I love this punch.  The paper came from Archievers.  I hope you enjoy.

This card is for the Sew Many Cards challenge now going on.   I just think this duck is just so cute and so ready to celebrate St. Paddy's Day.   Stamp is from Sew Many Cards and was colored using Copics (Y11, Y21 YG11, G82 and YG63).  Martha Steward punch and paper was from JoAnns.  I hope you enjoy this as much as I liked putting this together.

My First Tilda


Hi - I am so exited because I just finished coloring my first Tilda. I have been watching everyone's work and finally took the plunge. Of course, I used Copic markers and would love to have this critiqued. That is how I am going to learn. I have not taken any classes so any helpful hints would be greatly appreciated. Thanks for looking.

This is a wall clock that I made for Lucas' room. The theme of his room is "railroads" and I decided to try my hand at decorating a clock. The original clock was from Ikea and it cost $2.99. I figured if I messed it up too bad I won't be out of too much money. lol The numbers were cut 1" and his name was cut 3/4" from Plantin Schoolbook using the shadow feature. The white background was cut using the circle at 7". The train was from Joy of the Season cut at 2 1/4 "". The circular track was manipulated in DS until I got the size I wanted. Oops - it looks like I got a couple of numbers crooked and his name, but I was pleased at the overall look.
