Loo Loo Ballerina

I started this card a week ago. Little did I know all the mess that would happen this week with my ankle. Finally today I got answers at least. I go in next Friday, the 19th, for surgery on my ankle. The recovery time is looking like 4-6 weeks. I'm very hopeful that after a few days I will be able to be in my craft room but we'll just have to see. 

Until then I'm going to do what I can to create, create, create and schedule some posts during my recovery. 

I was going through my digi stamps recently and found this little pig that I don't think I've ever colored up so I printed her out. She's just so darling! I mean what could be cuter than a pig in a tutu!!

Just Because

I was excited to see that I was chosen as a winner in the Art by MiRan Facebook group in their December Progressive Challenge. THIS is the card I entered and it was chosen by the design team as one of the winners. 

I won a free digi stamp from Art by MiRan's Etsy shop! What a hard choice it was to choose as I adore so many of them but when I saw Annabelle, the search was over! I couldn't pass her up since she shares the same name as my daughter!

Oh deer!

My best friend spoiled me for my birthday and got me several cute stamp sets on my wishlist including this one from Clearly Besotted called Deer to Me. I just {love} it so much! I can't wait to create more with it!

For today's card I used my Zig Clean Color markers on it. I really enjoyed playing around with watercolor and hope to do it more!

Today is my birthday and I have to say it's been so wonderful! It even started out with deer in my yard!!

I am just so blessed! Hope you had a wonderful day too!!

You mermaid to be awesome

Hello there! Happy 4th of July! 

Today I have a card using a technique I've been dying to try! I scribbled on an acrylic block with my Zig Clean Color markers, sprayed it with water and then pressed the watercolor paper on it.

I just {love} the effect it had and it was the perfect background for my little mermaid! Isn't she precious? She's from the newly released Little Mermaids set! Unfortunately the set is sold out already but I know it'll be back in stock soon!!

I hope to see you back here tomorrow when I'll have another mermaid card to share!!
