All Things Black & White

Good Morning Everyone, Happy Monday!!!! I hope everyone had a WONDERFUL weekend!!! Today I would like to share something completely different for me. I have always wanted to make a creation using all black and white (with a hint of grey lol)  including my image. This was challenging for me but oh SO MUCH FUN!!! I loved how this card came out, I hope you enjoy!!!

Don't you just love when you visualize something and it actually comes out how you wanted it too?, it doesn't happen oh that much for me, but I really was extremely happy with the results of this card. Maybe just because its different :) Isn't this image just FANTASTIC??? I used the darling new image by SCACD Little Lily in the Little Sassy Crew Collection! Isn't she just soo much fun!! I also used the GORGEOUS Designer Paper by Kaiser Kraft Black and White Timeless ( Right now this paper pad is 20% off at SCACD). Those beautiful white flowers in the center of my grey and black flowers are sparkling prima flowers!! Can't really see the sparkle on this picture, but they are really beautiful!

An Inky Christmas

Good Morning Everyone, Happy Friday!!!! Wow after all the crazy rain and thunderstorms here in Northeast Ohio it has finally cooled off and no more humidity. It has been so humid here this past week and finally feels great outside!! 

Today I would like to share with you a creation I made.... I know I know I shouldn't be thinking of Christmas not quite yet LOL...BUT......I saw that Inky Impressions has a challenge this week which is Christmas in July. I haven't played with these cute girls in quite some time and when I saw this challenge I had this adorable LiLi image in mind. This has to be one of my all time favorite Inky Impression Stamps. The reason I LOVE this stamp so much is that this image is so versatile. You can stamp anything you would like LiLi to celebrate. So today she is wishing you a Merry Christmas :) 

I also was looking for a great sketch to use, and I found this wonderful sketch over at The Sweet Shop...

Hope you enjoy my creation today using this AWESOME sketch and playing along with the Christmas in July challenge over at Inky Impressions. Thanks for taking a peek!

For this creation I paper pieced her darling pants and colored her with copic markers. I added a bit of glitter using my gel pen for her eye shadow, and gave her little nails a cute red color. I can't forget to mention I gave her a holiday hat to wear with her outfit.

Here are a list of copics I used for this creation.

Skin - E21, E00, E000, E000
R20 for cheeks.
Eyes - B21
Lips - R81
Hair - E25, E23, and E31
Sign and Shoes - G21, G24, G00
