DT Art by Miran: To a wonderful Friend

 Hello crafty friends, 

It's time for a new challenge over at the Art by Mi Ran Challenge blog. 

For my card I masked to digi images toghether to make a scene. It was much easier to do digi masking than I thought. Just resize the images and put one image on top of the other in word.

Papers are Maja Design, flowers are WOC and Kort og Godt. I used a Martha Stewart punch along the edge, and a Tim Holtz/Sizzix filmstrip and ticket die. I embossed the tickets before adding them to the card. The sentiment is one I got in a Magazine i bought. 

The images I masked togheter are What's new pussycat and Little Garden Sally Bacground, both available  in Mi Ran's Etsy Store. Copic colors used:

Skin: E000-21-13-04

Hair: E37-35-31-30

Reds: E18-07-24-22

Greens: G99, YG95-93-91

Breast Cancer Awareness #2

Good morning peeps.
Here's another Breast Cancer Awareness card I made for Copic Marker Europe.

As you all know october is Breast Cancer Awareness month. My thoughts go out to all the strong and beautiful women fighting for their lives: Stay Strong! 

Lots of artists have made images to fund or support breast cancer research and help raise awareness. I   used an image by La La Land Crafts on this card.

I made a gatefold card with Maja Design papers. Spellbinders Romantic Oval and Oval die. Flowers are WOC, Kort og Godt and Magnolia. I used liquid pearl to make pearls around the image.

Here's Awareness Ribbon Marci by La La Land Crafts. Copics used:

Hair: E29-25-21

DT Art By Mi Ran: Happy Halloween

Hello crafty friends, 

I was so excited when the talented Mi Ran Jung asked me to join the Art by Miran Challenge design team. you have seen me use a few of those gorgeous images lately, so I was happy to join the lovely ladies on her team. 

This is my very first DT card using the Whimsy Stamps rubber stamp Little Witch. I thought I would make a spooky scene with this flying wich, so I went bananas with my Silhouette (the poor thing has been gathering dust for months now lol). Here's the result: 

I really have no idea where the papers are from. I rarely use orange, so it has been in my drawer a couple of years. The shapes are all from the silhouette online store. Stickers are Making Memories and I used an old book page. 

 I had fun playing with violet and orange coloring this Little Witch. 

Colors used:

Skin: E13-11-21-000, R20

Hair: V0906-04-000, BV08, W7

Dress: W9-7-5-3

Orange: E07, YR06-09

Broom: E37-35-31-30, E57

Clouds: W7-3-00, Moon: YR00, W7-3-00

I put some spiderwebs on the inside too:)

Hope you'll join us in the challenge over at the Art By Mi Ran Challenge blog. Please stop by and see the gorgeous makes of the dt ladies.

And also, I wanted to show you my new badge:)

Fab, isn't it!
