A Day For Daisies - Flower Maiden 1

Happy Saturday!

Today, I have a couple cards I made with a digital image from A Day For Daisies called Flower Maiden 1.  This is one of those images I purchased over 4 years ago and I don't think I ever used until now. I love the whimsy and elegance of this image, all at the same time.  I think it makes a perfect image for a birthday card.

I colored a few of these images, different hair colors and different dress color.  Above, I colored a blonde maiden in purple.  I tries to match hair color and favorite colors of the person I was making the card for.

My Interpretation:

This week I used 'Classics' by Deedee.  This is a pre-colored image, so a super simple and quick card.  The sentiment is from Fun Stampers Journey Keep Pedaling.

Sketch Saturday Challenge #302

Happy Saturday!

We have a new challenge starting today at Sketch Saturday!  Deedee Designs is sponsoring Challenge #302. The prize is 3 sets.  Deedee offers sets with colored and line images, sentiments and some sets include coordinating digital papers.

Sketch #302 was designed by Cathy

 Here is my interpretation:

 

The image, sentiment and patterned paper are from Whole Latte Love by Deedee.  I used the pre-colored image, which could not have made the creation of this card easier.  I think it is a great any occasion card.

The base card is PTI Kraft and matting PTI True Black.  I added a strip of crimped kraft cardstock, another coffee accent.

You can see all the DT creations using this week's sketch HERE.  Hope you will join us this week.

Doodle Pantry - He Is Risen

 

Happy Easter!

Today, I have the Easter card I sent to my family and the homebound ministry.  This image is from Doodle Pantry and is called He Is Risen.

I have the uncolored images too, however was in a bit of a pinch for time this year, so I used the pre-colored image and the coordinating digital papers too.  We got a new laser printer, so I had to try out printing in color.  It is nice to be able to print the digital papers myself and the pre-colored image is beautifully done.  The patterned paper was printed on normal copy paper. 

The "Christ is Risen" sentiment is from this set also.  I combined the two images in Photoshop, then saved it out as a new .png file.  I arranged 6 images per page in Microsoft Word and printed it on heavier cardstock.

Inside, I used the "Love's redeeming work is done" and "Happy Resurrection Sunday" digis to create the verse.
