Dies R Us DT Call!

Howdy!

Holy smokes, it's been almost 2 years since I have posted anything!! WHATTT!

So life update, I started my own business, and I now have 2 babies! It's been a wild ride, but my oldest just started Kindergarten and my littlest still naps - so that means momma gets to have a bit of craft time again!!

So, the mojo I needed to get back into crafting was actually a DT call my mother told me about over at Dies R Us!

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
