Meet Rio Burton!

Hello Bloggyland friends! We are almost through all of the new Burton Series 2 images from Simply B Stamps. Tomorrow at 12 noon PST we will be sharing the last image, in the form of a blog hop! But for tonight, we have the new and fabulous Ms. Rio Burton to share with you.

I love her! That dress is fabulous, he skyward glance is so pretty, and she was just a lot of fun to color. I used my blend of watercolor markers and Copics for Rio Burton.

I really loved coloring her dress. I can see re-doing it in so many different color combinations.

I’ll admit, this was a pretty simple card to make. That background was all done via a small DCWV Stack. All I added were the stars, and the “Trick or Treat.” And I embossed the edge of the card in that beautiful metallic purple.
Please be sure to stop back tomorrow afternoon for the hop! And, head on over to the SBS Blog right now, to see what the rest of the insanely talented DT has come up with. Thanks for stopping by. Have an inspiring day!

February Smeared & Smudged Sketch Challenge

The new Smeared & Smudged challenges are up and ready for you to participate in! I got instantly inspired by Kelli’s card sketch for the month, as I have been working with different ideas for my next “Tarot Card.” Haha! That’s actually pretty funny! If you’ve been checking in over the past couple of weeks, you may have seen my Misty Benson Tarot Set 1 ( Smeared Ink ) cards. I’ve used The World and The Fool so far. Today, I bring you Death. Don’t worry…it’s actually a joyful image…one that I intend to use a lot! First, here’s the sketch. I flipped it and changed the ribbon and embellishment a bit. Can I just start off by saying that it is quite nerve wracking to slice your image??? I have done it a few times in the past, but I always get butterflies when I attempt it again. I colored the image and the card itself using nothing but Distress Inks and my Cut-n-Dry Nibs. My skull button at the top has been colored with Alcohol Inks.   The colors look a little off to m

Christmas in July with Imagine Crafts & Stencil Girl!

Hello! Have you heard? The Imagine AIRs have been hopping with Stencil Girl! If you have been here before, you know I loooove me some stencils, so this collaboration was very exciting for me! The teams are hopping for 3 consecutive Saturdays, and this is week 2. I have the entire list of hop links at the bottom of the post. Be sure you don't miss anyone! I decided to to create an extra large gift tag with my new stencils. Using red cardstock, I taped down the Journal Texture #8 Stencil  and inked it up with Golden Glitz Delicata ink . I promise you, this is the BEST gold ink you will ever use! The Journal stamp only has 2 diamonds on it (it's a 4x4" stencil), so after I inked up the first pair, I moved over the stencil, lined it up, and inked again. Next I wanted to do something textural with the Urban Insiders Star . So I took some evergreen cardstock, taped down the star, and slathered on some yummy Iridescent Green Creative Medium . After the medium dried, I ga
