Whimsy M1 - Baby Dragon

Oh, my goodness! The Dragon Egg image is simply adorable! And quite a timely Whimsy release for me since I just learned of another pregnancy at the office. They say they come in threes so I best prepare myself for one more baby card this year!

I started the card by diecutting the Up in the Clouds dies. See how they are both stitched on the outside and pierced on the cloud itself?  So brilliant!

I sponged the background using Distress Oxide Mustard Seed, Picked Raspberry and Peacock Feathers. I spattered that with water before adhering a few of the pierced clouds with Ranger Multi Medium Matte.

I colored up the Dragon Egg image using Copics and nestled him down into the largest cloud diecut. Isn't he so cute!

ATCAS #154 - Fluffy

It's time for a new Addicted to CAS challenge!  This time the inspiration word is "fluffy." Now if there's someone who knows about fluffy, it's me. I'm not fat, I'm fluffy!  LOL.

For my card I decided to use the MFT Ewe Are the Best set which I haven't used in forever. Seems like it anyway. It's so cute!  I created nooks and crannies in the sheep's wool using Copics then went over the top with a white pigment pen. Fluffy fluff!

Whimsy F5 - Floral Friend

It seems like I haven't worked with florals in forever and a day so I was really excited to see the Spiral Roses background stamp. I knew immediately I wanted to use watercolor  after heat embossing using Ranger White Super Fine Detail Embossing Powder and Versamark.

The heat embossing not only helps me keep my watercoloring within the lines but also creates fabulous shiny edges.  Who doesn't like a bit of shine?

I thought it would be cool to use the negative of the Friend die so that the flowers would create the color.  Most of the floral front is used but the white panel helps tone it down some.  Wow!
