Not a Halloween Card!

I know, totally shocking, but I've moved on... I may squeeze in a couple of last minute Halloween cards, but for the most part I'm done until next year.

Time to start on the Christmas cards! Don't you just love this image from Mo Manning? I love all her images but these two characters are among my favorite. This was colored with Copics and blinged up with Stickles and glitter. Ivory Flower Soft was used on the brim of her hat - boy, that stuff is messy!!

This time of year is very busy for me with my day job, so blogging is taking somewhat of a back seat. Actually, I'm kind of amazed I've kept going as long as I have because I have a fairly short attention span, not to mention a low boredom threshold, but I'm really having a good time with it, mainly thanks to my bloggy buddies in Oceans 11 and all the other lovely people I have "met" out there in Cyberspace. Thanks all!!

Digital Stamps

A couple of weeks ago there was a thread on SCS about digital stamping which was very interesting. I am very much a" live and let live" kind of person and I was quite surprised by the passion this subject stirred up. I guess, for me, there are subjects much more worthy of getting worked up about than whether a digital image should or should not be called a stamp. I'm glad it came up though because if it hadn't I would never have found the work of Mo Manning who is the illustrator of the digital image used on this card. Next time, I think I will size her down a little, but I just love this image !
She was printed on WalMart GP cardstock, using my HP deskjet, then colored with Copics. The background paper is the (sadly) discontinued Khalamat line from TAC
