Exciting News!

 Hi Everyone

I have some extremely exciting news to share with you!

I am now a member of the Sweet November Stamps Design Team.


I just cannot tell you how thrilled I am to be working with such an amazingly talented team.  Thank you so much to Tee and Amy for inviting me.

I will be working predominantly with the existing images while the other DT members concentrate on the new releases.  

If you aren't already a member of their Friends of Sweet November Facebook Group please come on over and join us to see the amazing images and the fabulous projects that the team create over there.  Amy who is the artist also has a Facebook Page called Adventures in Coloring with Amy where she shares her colouring videos.  I have been following and colouring along with these for some months now and this card I have created for my Debut includes one of her backgrounds and you can find the video Here  

This is my favourite of all the backgrounds so far but then I am partial to a waterfall lol!  I would love to be able to sit on the rocks with a book by the waters edge and relax here!

The images I have used are Burning Love: Doby Bundle and the rocks are called Mermaid Rocks  The sentiment is included with Doby!
 
I coloured all this using Copics and a White Gelly Roll Pen

Balloon's full of Love

 Hi Everyone

A new Gnome has landed in the Conie Fong Art Etsy Store
 
Gnome Balloon and Sentiment Bundle is the latest valentine theme released and he is just too cute not to work with!!  The bundle comes with a Heart shaped balloon or a Round balloon.  I decided to make one of each.
 
I created two ATC's.  I have never made one of these before but I was inspired by a video from Adventures in Coloring with Amy after she created am ATC for a swap and thought I would have a go.  I usually make a little valentine card to go into my younger children's lunchboxes so this year they are going to get these!  

I actually thought I would struggle on something so small but it was surprisingly easy.  I was shocked!
 
I coloured the images and background using Copics
 
Head on over to the Conie Fong Facebook Group to see what the talented DT have been creating with these.
 
I would like to enter these into the following Challenges
 
 

Thank you for taking the time to visit my blog and share these ATC's with me.  Please leave me a comment to let me know what you think.  Hope to see you again soon.
