Winter Smile
Happy Monday!
I don't usually say that, but I'm on vacation for a week, so HAPPY MONDAY! And, yes I DID enjoy a relaxing TWO cups of coffee this morning! The kids have been playing outside with the neighbors most of the day and I have to say, I really haven't done much of anything! I've checked out my favorite blogs and galleries,and made a card for Beate's weekend sketch~ oh yea- this is a vacation!!
I'm quickly going to share it with you because I really should get SOMETHING done around here!
I love this image from Whiff of Joy, and it's pretty cold up here, so here is 'Winter Smile'. I stamped her in black Archival ink onto water color paper, and colored her with ink pads, a water brush and a blender pen. I added some Fruit Punch Stickles which I wish you could see better. The sentiment is a Heidi Grace rub-on on white cs, punched out with a 1 3/8" circle punch. I inked around the edge and outlined it with more Stickles. I added the MS snowflake punch with a dimensional, Stickled some more, and added a button in the center.
Well, that's it for now, thanks so much for stopping by~ and don't forget to smile a lot today!! :)
Hugs and Smiles~
Denise

She is darling.
Hello Denise, She is sooo adorable. Love the colors and your coloring is fantastic as usual!! Yes it is cold here, burr. I had to laugh, last week you missed the girls at the bus stop. Remember when we had 50 mile per hour winds? Well, MDH was laughing because the girls were afraid they would blow away so they were holding on to the mailbox waiting for the bus. Where is spring??? Can't wait till 2morrow to get together...chocolate, coffee and STAMPS!!!!
Hugs, Pam
