Faery Ink Inspirational!

Hello Faery Ink fans! 

I'm so glad it's summer time! It's my favorite season. I love the sunshine, and the beach.

 

For this months inspirational post, I decided to use the Beachball Arielle from the New Release.

I hope that you will take a look at the Faery Ink Store and try your hand at any one of these amazing images.

 

 

I've never made an S-fold card, but it's so simple and easy and gives a great effect!!

I've slowly, but surely, been working through a long list of card styles, and folds that I have been wanting to try. Stay tuned for next month to see what else I come up with.

I'm not sure if I've mentioned this or not, but I've recently start transitioning from Spectrum Noir Markers to Copics. I just had a play with some Copics recently and decided that I HAD TO HAVE THEM! I love their effect, they blend like a dream, and they are so easy to work with. I'm still trying to get a hang of the hair!

I have a tendency to make everything very bright and colorful but I came across these papers and attempted to tone down a bit!  I hope I succeeded.

Supplies used to make this card:

All Papers - Seaglass Mat Stack by K&C

Paper Temptress - Heavenly White #80

*I do all my coloring on this - It's amazing!*

Seashell & Starfish - io Dies (Impression Obsession)

Eyelets - Stash

 Thanks for stopping by today!

Faery Ink's Coloring for a Cause!

Hello, Hello!

So today I wanted to write a post that is a little different. It is NOT something I created, or colored, or a DT project. Today I wanted to share something completely different and hopefully it sparks you interest.

So as you may know I'm on this amazing design team with an outstanding company called FAERY INK! There are so many different reasons that I just love this team, but one of the top reasons is because of the incredibly talented, generous, and thoughtful designer behind these exquisite digis - AMANDA!

If you haven't heard of Faery Ink before you should most definitely head over to the shop and check out the images because they are absolutely a dream to color! However, if you need even more reasons to check it out - here's a GREAT ONE! 

A few months ago Amanda started such an inspiring, selfless project called "Coloring for a Cause". Every month she designs a digital stamps that is directed towards a certain charity. 

ALL proceeds go towards that charity. 

So for $5 you get two digital stamps and you are helping out a charity in the form of a donation. How amazing is that?! As of June 8th - Faery Inks fans have raised $175 towards these charities!

Here's the charities that Amanda's helped so far:

Month of April: 

One World One Ocean Foundation

Sea Turtle Goddess

 

Month of May:

Seva Foundation - to support relief efforts in Nepal after devastating Earthquakes

Nepal Rhododendron Fairy 

 

Month of June:

Autism Research Institute

 Autism Fairy Breanna

 

All of these UNCOLORED images are still available for purchase and proceeds will still go towards these charities! I encourage you to check them out and participate in this ongoing effort to raise money and awareness for these amazing causes!

Thanks for popping by today!
